After a spectacular presentation of a limited edition motorcycle at Motoverse 2023 – the Shotgun 650 Motoverse Edition – Royal Enfield today debuts the production version of the Shotgun 650. A stunning, unique motorcycle inspired by customization, the Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 will be available in four exclusive color schemes: Stencil White, Plasma Blue, Green Drill, and Sheetmetal Grey.
Built based on the globally approved 650 Twin twin-cylinder platform, the Shotgun 650 is a tribute to the customization culture and a new design concept for Royal Enfield with an exciting vision of the future. With its retro-futuristic design, the Shotgun 650 pays homage to its predecessor, the SG650 Concept – showcased at EICMA 2021 – and celebrates creativity and customization for thousands of motorcyclists worldwide.
In the true spirit of customization, the new Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 is a motorcycle that is defined by its own rider. Its new chassis and stance are a blank canvas, challenging motorcycle categorization and absorbing the personality of its rider. The modular design allows for easy switching between three configurations – from the single-seat to the double-seat model, to the touring model capable of carrying luggage. With a turn of a key, the passenger seat can be removed, providing ultimate flexibility. Whether seeking an aggressive and captivating motorcycle or a more restrained experience, the Shotgun 650 effortlessly delivers. With an upright and confident riding position that encourages both styles, it adapts to the rider’s mood and driving style.
With the globally acclaimed 650 Twin platform at its core, the Shotgun 650 is packed with dual-purpose fun. It is ergonomically optimized, with mid-set foot pegs, a reduced seat height of 795 mm, and an intuitive handlebar position that gives the rider a commanding sense of presence and control. The single-seat is both revivalist and modern. The Shotgun’s front suspension, featuring a 43 mm Showa big piston fork with independent functions, and dual rear shocks with 5-level adjustable preload, along with a 1465 mm wheelbase and low center of gravity, combine to make riding equally enjoyable in traffic, on highways, and on winding roads, without compromising comfort. Tubeless wide tires with 18″ front and 17″ rear wheels, combined with 320 mm and 300 mm disc brakes, ensure stable handling while keeping the rider engaged and in control at any speed.
The Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 blends retro-futuristic design with modern features. An LED headlamp mounted in a beautiful and customized housing stays true to the neo-retro fusion aesthetic while providing improved visibility. The motorcycle has a digital-analog instrument panel, equipped with the Tripper navigation system, designed to provide all the necessary information while traveling. The Shotgun 650 is also equipped with a USB charging port to keep your devices charged on the go.
Continuing the concept of customization and personalization, a diverse range of 31 Genuine Accessories for the Shotgun 650 has been designed to further enhance the customized aesthetic. Available accessories include handlebar-end mirrors, a sculpted solo seat, and solid metal wheels with contrasting facets.
