We have already talked about the future arrival of this model from the Indian firm in solomoto.es. But in view of the new spy photos of the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, it may very well be ready for its presentation at the next EICMA in Milan after the summer.
The photos, taken by our Indian colleagues at Rushline, reveal a bike with similar dimensions to the current Himalayan 411. But thanks to its liquid-cooled 4-valve single-cylinder engine, performance will be better than the current version. . 30 CV of maximum power against the 24 CV of the current single-cylinder.
This also entails an improvement in certain components. In sight is the new inverted fork, but the frame will also be unprecedented, which will have to support superior performance.
All in all, it would not reach the figures of models like the KTM 390 Adventure, which has excellent equipment, including its 7” TFT screen and extensive electronic equipment. But it is evident that it will not cost the same either. More if possible knowing the price containment policy of the Asian brand.
Thus, the new spy photos of the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 bring us closer and closer to what will be the star motorcycle of the Indian brand in 2023.
