The Himalayan 440 wasn’t the only new motorcycle we saw during Royal Enfield’s Himalayan Basecamp (HBC) event in the first week of September. The brand also showcased a non-camouflaged version of the Himalayan 750, revealing many key details about it, like the fact that it will be the first Royal Enfield to feature cruise control. At the time, we also reported that we expect it to launch at EICMA 2026. Now, the Himalayan 750 has been spotted in more colours, tacitly indicating an EICMA launch is imminent.
- Himalayan 750 spotted in red, white and grey colours for the first time
- Royal Enfield could offer tubeless spoke rims as accessories
- Still runs on 19/17 wheels; 21/17 or 21/18 version might happen later

New colours, and possibly optional tubeless spoke rims
This certainly isn’t the first time we’re seeing the Himalayan 750. We first saw a prototype-looking version of it in EICMA 2025. Since then, it’s been spotted multiple other times being tested with the last instance at HBC giving us the closest look yet. However, we had been seeing the motorcycle either camouflaged, or in black. Thankfully, it looks like Royal Enfield is intent on continuing their interesting colour choices for the Himalayan 750 too. Presumably spotted during a shoot (judging by the attire and the gear used by the riders), we see three new colours: Red, White, and Grey(or Silver). There’s another motorcycle just outside the frame which could be the Black colour that we’ve already seen. These could end up being the four colour options for the Himalayan 750.
Another key change that we’ve noticed is - and it’s something fans of Royal Enfield’s heritage would love - is that two out of the three motorcycles in the pictures sport tubeless spoke wheels. Until now, we’ve only seen the Himalayan 750 with alloy rims. However, it’s likely that Royal Enfield will reserve the tubeless spoke rims as additional accessories, or just offer them as standard with the top-most variant. The Himalayan 450, for example, only offers the tubeless rims with the top Mana Black variant; on all the other colours, they are currently available as accessories for an additional Rs 15,990. The wheel sizes still appear to be 19/17-inches front/rear, which could either mean that Royal Enfield intends to position the Himalayan 750 as more of a tourer, or it might have an off-road focused version of the 750 with 21/17 (or 18-inch) front/rear wheel setup in the works for later. The Himalayan 440 and 450 run on 21/17 front/rear wheels, for context.
You can check out the full list of features that the biggest Himalayan is poised to get from our earlier story, if you’d like further information on what to expect. Currently, the Super Meteor 650 is the most expensive Royal Enfield at Rs 4.40 lakh and we’d expect the Himalayan 750 to become the new flagship offering from the brand when it’s launched; and we still expect it to launch at EICMA 2026, slated to happen in November.
