Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 Is Taming The Himalayas Already!

New spy shots of the upcoming Royal Enfield ADV show the bike in full production-ready guise

Another day, another spy shot of the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450. Days after two production-ready test mules of the ADV were spied on, new spy shots of the ADV donning snow chains have emerged. The upcoming Royal Enfield bike was spotted in the snow-capped Himalayas.

We already know what the bike sounds like and even how its console looks like. These new spy shots do not reveal anything new, but shows how close Royal Enfield is to launching the Himalayan 450. The test mules weren’t heavily camouflaged and revealed smaller details like the headlight brace, and the stubby windshield.

The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 carries the utilitarian design of the current Himalayan 411, but packs a bunch of modern elements like USD fork, a liquid-cooled engine (first for the company), and an all-digital console. This bike also features all-LED illumination, with the taillight neatly integrated into the rear indicators.

Considering Royal Enfield’s plan of introducing a new model every quarter, we expect the Himalayan 450 to grace our shores in mid-2023. It could be priced at around Rs 2.8 lakh (ex-showroom), which would make things interesting given that the KTM 390 Adventure with wire-spoked rims is expected to debut around the same time.
