Royal Enfield Himalayan, Guerrilla 450, India Launch Details

The Guerrilla 450 is expected to be priced lower than the Himalayan given the simpler hardware on display.

We have already reported in our previous stories that Royal Enfield is developing six new models, the Guerrilla 450 being the first to launch. New leaked images of Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 have now appeared, giving us a much better view of the bike.

Royal Enfeild Guerrilla 450, design, launch, price, details

This unit looks closer to a production ready model. Because the Guerrilla 450 will be based on the new Himalayamany of his parts resemble him.

It has a single bridge instrument console, a round LED headlight, a large fuel tank and a one-piece seat. Whether this single bridge console will be the same TFT that is available on the Himalaya remains to be seen. The tank and tail sections resemble the ADV and are carried over.

While the Himalayan uses spoked wheels and a set of tube tires, Guerrilla 450 it has alloy wheels and therefore tubeless tyres. It also ditches the USD fork found on the Himalayas for a telescopic ice fork.

Although much of its hardware is shared between the two, Royal Enfield seems to have configured the Guerrilla 450 primarily for road use. It will also have the same Sherpa 450 engine that Royal Enfield uses for the Himalayan.

But it remains to be seen whether the engine will be tuned differently on the Guerrilla 450. In the Himalaya, this 452cc single-cylinder engine produces 40PS and 40Nm and is mated to a 6-speed gearbox.
