Unlike the test mule that was spotted abroad, the India-spec Himalayan 750 test mule was spotted with a few changes.
Royal Enfield working on a bigger, parallel-twin mill has been in the news for quite some time now. The bikes that will debut with this new engine have already been spotted being tested on both foreign and Indian roads.s. The latest reveals the brand’s adventure tourer, the Himalayan 750, is being tested in India. The latest glimpse also brings to the fore a few new details, which we believe will be exclusive to the Indian market.
So for starters, the overall design of the upcoming Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 is reminiscent of the current-gen Himalayan 450. With a parallel-twin engine nestled in between the frame, the bike ends up looking bulky. This new engine will in all probability be the same 650 cc, parallel-twin mill but with a bigger bore. While the engine spotted here still looks like an air/oil-cooled unit, Royal Enfield might have added ride-by-wire throttle control for ride modes and cruise control as well.
Royal Enfield has also updated the rolling chassis of the adventure tourer. So instead of the double-cradle frame, the new RE Himalayan 750 is built around a trellis architecture, just like the Himalayan 450. Similarly, the underpinnings have remained the same too, which include a USD fork and a monoshock. We expect the suspension tuning to be slightly different to tackle the extra weight that comes with a bigger engine. Owing to the added performance and weight, the bike features a dual disc brake setup at the front. Moreover, the road-focussed 19-/17-inch spoke wheel setup spotted here, suggests that the upcoming Himalayan 750 will be more suited for touring and road-biased adventure.
Aesthetically, the bike continues to boast a similar tall body design, like the Himalayan 450, effortlessly blending retro and modern elements. The latter is highlighted by an all-LED headlamp and sleek LED LED indicators. However, earlier when we spotted the Himalayan 750 in Europe, it featured a rectangular TFT cluster. But the one that was spotted here recently, featured a round TFT cluster, just like the one available with the current-gen Himalayan 450.
So, given all the updates that the new Himalayan 750 will debut with. We expect Royal Enfield will slot the bike as its most premium affair, and be its most expensive proposition yet. So somewhere in the region of ₹3.90- ₹4.30 lakh (ex-showroom) is what its asking price could be. Further information will likely be unveiled at EICMA 2025, which will be followed by its official launch sometime in early 2026.
