The next Royal Enfield Bullet 650 has been spotted testing, but this time in Europe. We now have clearer images of the upcoming motorcycle which has helped us identify some parts of the bike that we had not seen before. Previously, the bike was spotted testing in India and we also managed to hear the sound of the exhaust.
The Bullet 650 has an almost identical style to the Royal Enfield Bullet 350, with its round headlight housed inside a metal cowl, and the turn indicators with the iconic Royal Enfield tiger-eye design. The front fork is also a telescopic unit with metal caps like the Bullet 350.
Although the Bullet 650 is built on the same platform as the Royal Enfield Shotgun 650, Royal Enfield has made some adjustments to make the bike more retro. The first of these is the overall chrome finish, including the engine and exhausts. The dual exhausts now stand out thanks to the chrome finish and the contours of the crankcase are clearly visible, displaying the slightly raised “Royal Enfield” inscription.
Finally, we were also able to get a better look at the seat, which is a large one-piece unit similar to that of the Bullet 350. The bike also features a square rear fender, along with a fender support, to prevent saddlebags from hitting the tires.
This upcoming Royal Enfield motorcycle will be equipped with the same 648cc air/oil-cooled twin-cylinder engine that we have seen in other Royal Enfield 650 models, such as the Interceptor 650, Continental GT 650, Super Meteor 650, and Shotgun 650. The engine produces 47 hp and 52.3 Nm.
We expect it to be launched by the end of 2024 or early 2025.
