Given that its launch is now just around the corner, it seems to have made quite some noise indeed and we are talking about the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450.

Specifications of the Guerrilla 450 have been leaked ahead of its hit debut on July 17, 2024, which revealed some interesting specifications.

More About the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450

Adding to its portfolio inspired by the Sherpa 450, Royal Enfield has presented the Guerrilla 450 as a sporty Roadster in the single-cylinder performance motorcycle segment. It should ride on a Himalayan 450 chassis, at least as far as its main frame is concerned, and feature the same Sherpa 450 engine under all that skin but in a lower state of tune to keep weight down.

Unlike the Himalayan 450, it will not feature large touring or off-roading hardware and thus be more compact in size and weight primarily because it is marketed as a Roadster. From leaks, we know the Guerrilla 450 will be smaller and lighter than its adventure counterpart. The Guerrilla 450 is said to be 2,134 mm long, with a width of just 834 mm and it stands at height measures only1,115. That’s 111 mm less in length, 18 mm of a shrinking width, and a total difference of some humongous numbers; as much as the G320 over our Himalayan 450!

In leaked images indicated, the Guerrilla 450 will tip the scales at around 183 kgs which is a bit higher compared to what was forecasted but still considered hefty when put in comparison with its nemesis – the Honda CB300R which weighs only about 146 kg But it is 13 kg less than the Himalayan 450 (leaks suggest that weighs about 196 kg).

In terms of engine specifications, Royal Enfield has tuned the Guerrilla 450’s engine to create a distinct character. Leaked specifications reveal a peak power of 39.52 bhp at 8,000 RPM and a peak torque of 40 Nm at 5,500 RPM, similar to the Himalayan 450.

One of the most intriguing revelations from the leak is the Guerrilla 450’s tire size. While competitors typically offer front tires of 110-section and rear tires of 150-section or smaller, leaks suggest the Guerrilla 450 will feature a 120-section front tire and a 160-section rear tire, akin to higher-end models like the Benelli Leoncino 500 and Kawasaki Z650.

Spy shots from TVC shoots reveal that the base model of the Guerrilla 450 will feature a semi-analog instrument cluster from the Meteor lineup, with an optional Tripper Screen accessory. The top model is expected to include the Tripper Dash from the Himalayan 450. Pricing estimates place the base model competitively, likely around ₹2.3 lakh (Ex-showroom).
