New shots from India show us the prototype of what will most likely be the new
Royal Enfield Classic 650. Royal Enfield's 650 platform is based
on the modern 648 cc parallel twin, this is an engine that is capable of delivering
a maximum power of 47 HP at 7,250 rpm and with a peak torque of 52.3 Nm at 5,650 rpm. The frame
is tubular in steel, which uses the engine as a stiffening element, and is combined
with a double-arm swingarm, also in steel. After the latest Shotgun 650, Royal Enfield
seems
to want to close the circle and complete the offer with a new model. This is demonstrated by
the latest images captured by our Indian colleagues at Rushlane, who have spotted what will
most likely be the Classic 650 as a pre-series. However, from previous sightings, the
Indian company seems intent on also offering the Scram 650, on the same platform.
As for the lines, the Classic 650 inherits the DNA from its little sister the 350, but
with larger superstructures and dimensions, which
give it a lot of personality
and a pleasantly old-style charm. The bike's frame seems to come directly
from the Super Meteor 650 and the Shotgun, a tubular steel unit, which uses the engine
as a stiffening element, and combined with a double-arm swingarm, also in steel. The fork
should also be the same with upside down legs. However, the latest shots and the spy video
provide us with other information. the instrumentation is partly visible, and shows a
circular instrument that appears to
be analogue, to maintain the "old style" soul of the bike.
Finally we have several chrome parts, such as the two exhaust pipes that run
parallel to the ground, the headlight covers, the direction indicators, the
handlebars and the steering plates.

And there was me thinking the Shotgun might be just what I've been waiting for. Damn you, Royal Enfield, I don't know what to do now.
Vou comprar uma dessa com certeza
If it becomes a reality, I might be interested in buying one and having a sidecar made for it. The style seems suitable. It would be lots of fun and a great conversation starter while out with the family.
This is a bike that Royal Enfield needs to get right. If they do, I will need to have one.
The rear mudguard design looks like that of the bullet @0:05... Bullet 650?
Take my money. I don't think I will buy the cam and stuff for my 350 now.
Concept shotgun ko dikhakar kayaa lay aaiaa,aavi isko daykhaker koun sa kharus model lai ga,vagban hi janey 😊😅
Hurry up with the 650 scrambler.
Non mi dispiace ma alla fine credo che la 350 abbia più fascino, è più romantica
I really don't like blacked out pipes, they make any bike look cheap. Stick to stainless steel, so much classier.
I wonder how you guys surmised that this is a classic 650 when it has a single seat like the bullet . Hahahh.. unmatched imaginary … this could be the bullet 650 exposed in the video and in addition to that enfield is running a fancy dress competition just changing clothes on the same person and selling it … lol ..I wonder what engine they will use on the scram and the Himalayan if they are going to enter the 650 segments … perhaps they should think about something else … which could be affordable for the customer .rather than giving too many options with a higher pricing point where people will not patronize any of it …
It doesn't look very classic as far as I am concerned. Could be a great bike but it is no classic.
