Royal Enfield has filed a trademark for a new name – Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin. That’s right, the beloved retro roadster, the Royal Enfield Classic 350, will be launched in a 650cc avatar.
The 650cc roadster has been spotted several times already and now the trademark registration request has been filed as ‘Formalities Chk Pass’, meaning the Indian Trademark Registry has authenticated the trademark registration documents.
Now, as the bike has been spotted before, we know it looks very similar to its smaller sibling – the Classic 350. It has a similar headlight, tear-shaped fuel tank, and split-seat setup. From the handlebar position and central footpegs, the riding position should also be upright, just like the 350.
It will be equipped with the same 648cc air/oil-cooled twin-cylinder engine, producing 47.45 hp and 52 Nm as the other 650cc bikes. However, to suit the relaxed and laid-back vibe of the Classic, it is likely to feature a slightly different engine tuning. It has dual exhausts that look very elegant with the chrome finish.
