Why Royal Enfield created a limited edition

Royal Enfield doesn’t have a history of limited editions. Usually associated with updated versions of legacy motorcycles, Royal Enfield has broadened its lineup and vision. The Himalayan adventure bike and Scram 411 Crossover are recently introduced for contemporary riding styles. Royal Enfield is also developing the Flying Flea brand of electric motorcycles scheduled to debut in 2026.

Many motorcyclists customize and personalize their bikes. Recognizing this worldwide desire for self-expression, Royal Enfield chose the 648 cc parallel-twin engine Shotgun 650 as a platform to demonstrate customization. The Limited Edition Shotgun 650 is influenced by Icon’s Always Something custom-built motorcycle displayed at international motorcycle events in 2024.

The limited edition represents Royal Enfield’s history of classic motorcycles. It starts with a proven platform: the Shotgun 650. The moderately powerful 648cc parallel twin air-and-oil-cooled engine has a six-speed transmission. The engine has a 9.5:1 compression ratio and develops 46.4 horsepower and 38.6 ft-lbs of torque.

In addition to a front Big Piston Fork with 120mm travel, the Shogun 650’s rear suspension features Showa Twin shocks with 90mm travel. The bike also has twin-piston disc brakes at the front and rear, with dual-channel ABS.
