Royal Enfield Himalayan 450

The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is an adventure motorcycle launched by Royal Enfield in late 2023 as an entirely new machine sold under the Himalayan name. It replaced the 411 cc Himalayan of 2016, which shares no common components with it, and is built in India by the company based in Chennai. Its 452 cc engine is a liquid cooled single cylinder with a double overhead camshaft and four valves, the first liquid cooled engine in the history of Royal Enfield motorcycles. The maker quotes about 40 PS at 8000 rpm and 40 Nm of torque at 5500 rpm, and a kerb weight of 196 kg with ninety percent fuel and oil. The motorcycle is aimed at riders who want a rugged, versatile and relatively affordable machine for adventure touring, and the Scram 440 and Guerrilla 450 were later built on closely related engine and chassis foundations.
