Royal Enfield Bullet 650 is expected to launch in India in October 2026 in the expected price range of ₹ 2,80,000 to ₹ 2,90,000. Currently available bikes which are similar to Bullet 650 are QJ Motor SRC 500, Harley-Davidson X440 & Jawa 42 Bobber. Another bike similar to Bullet 650 is Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 which is launching in May 2024 in India.

With a proven 650cc platform at its disposal now, Royal Enfield using it for its iconic brand Bullet comes as no surprise. The company has already spawned three bikes based on its largest displacement platform, and a couple more are on their way, including the Bullet 650.

As per Royal Enfield’s leaked presentation which revealed the silhouette of the bike, the Bullet 650 will retain design lines almost identical to its existing 350cc version. Hence, expect it to get a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, a stepped single-piece seat, a tall handlebar, and spoke wheels. Maintaining its quintessential retro-inspired theme, we believe it will be basic in terms of features and get things like a semi-digital console and halogen headlamp.

The 650cc, air/oil-cooled engine is likely to remain the same as it’s on the existing motorcycles. It comes mated to a six-speed gearbox and produces 47bhp and 52Nm. Similar to the Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650, it will perhaps ride on 18-inch wheels at both ends, with telescopic forks and dual springs. Braking, meanwhile, will certainly be handled by a single disc at both ends with dual-channel ABS.

Royal Enfield is unlikely to launch the Bullet 650 anytime sooner than 2025, and other, newer 650s will be introduced before that.
