Royal Enfield has been working on a larger capacity Himalayan for quite some time now. After being spotted somewhere in Europe last month, it has now been seen testing in India again.
- Features a distinctive new fairing
- Gets a higher, upswept exhaust
- Twin disc setup at the front
Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 details
The Himalayan 750 will be powered by a new engine that will produce more power and torque than the existing 648cc twin-cylinder unit, which makes 47hp and 52Nm. This mill is likely to debut in the next-gen Interceptor and Continental GT, which have been spied testing as well. The Himalayan is also expected to feature a new platform compared to the rest of the 650cc line-up.
The front section witnesses the addition of a new fairing, which is similar to the existing 450 and even pays a nod to the older 411. The same LED headlight that is seen on most other RE models continues on duty here as well. Another welcome addition is the new braking system with twin front discs and Bybre-branded calipers.
The Himalayan 750’s tail setup is similar to that of the 450, with its brake light being integrated into the indicators. The upswept exhaust is higher up compared to the smaller Himalayan.
What community is saying on the Himalayan?
The bike appears to have a 19-inch front and 17-inch rear tyre setup. Suspending the larger Himalayan 750 is a USD fork up front and a monoshock at the rear, making it the first twin-cylinder RE to use the latter. While not visible here, the Himalayan 750 is likely to use the same TFT display as the Bear 650.
This test mule seems pretty close to production-ready, and we could see the first bikes with this new, larger engine make their debut later in 2025. Currently, Royal Enfield’s adventure line-up comprises the Scram 440 and the Himalayan 450.
