Royal Enfield is set to launch the new Bullet 650 in India in early 2026, most likely in January, positioning it as a more accessible and traditional option compared to the Classic 650. The Bullet 650 will feature the iconic silhouette of the Bullet 350 but with a bigger form factor and a more powerful engine, making it an exciting addition to Royal Enfield’s 650cc lineup.
Key Features and Design
The Bullet 650 will be powered by a 648cc air/oil-cooled parallel-twin engine, delivering around 47bhp and 52Nm of torque, ensuring smooth power and strong mid-range performance. It will be available in two classic color options: Battleship Blue and Cannon Black, featuring golden pinstripes and the traditional Royal Enfield badge. The design retains the classic Bullet elements such as a teardrop fuel tank, upright riding position, and a casquette-mounted LED headlamp with twin pilot lamps.
Performance and Riding Experience
Equipped with a six-speed transmission, the Bullet 650 promises a comfortable and smooth ride, suitable for both city commutes and long-distance touring. The bike will have a seat height of 800 mm, a fuel capacity of 14.8 liters, and a kerb weight of 243 kg. It will feature front and rear disc brakes with dual-channel ABS for enhanced safety, and the suspension system is tuned for comfort on Indian roads.
Price and Accessories
The Bullet 650 is expected to be priced between ₹3.40 lakh and ₹3.60 lakh (ex-showroom), making it an attractive proposition for riders looking for a classic Royal Enfield experience with modern updates. Royal Enfield will also offer a wide range of factory-fitted accessories, including an engine guard, fog lamps, sump guard, soft luggage saddle bags, a touring seat, and a pillion backrest, allowing buyers to customize their bikes as per their needs.
Launch and Availability
The Bullet 650 was recently showcased at Motoverse 2025 and is expected to be launched in India in January 2026, with official details and pricing likely to be announced at the event. The launch will reinforce Royal Enfield’s commitment to blending heritage with modern technology, offering riders a true classic experience with updated performance and features.
