Royal Enfield has officially launched the Bullet 650 in India today, pricing it at Rs 3.65 lakh. This new motorcycle marks a major milestone as the most powerful Bullet ever made by the brand, combining the classic Bullet look with a modern 650cc parallel-twin engine.
The Bullet 650 joins Royal Enfield’s growing 650cc lineup in India, which already includes the Interceptor 650, Continental GT 650, Super Meteor 650, Shotgun 650, and Classic 650. Interestingly, the new Bullet 650 is priced exactly the same as the Classic 650. This launch expands Royal Enfield’s presence in the mid-weight motorcycle segment and offers riders a familiar Bullet style with significantly more power.
At the heart of the Bullet 650 is a 647.95 cc parallel-twin, fuel-injected SOHC engine that produces 46.4 hp of power and 52.3 Nm of torque. The motor is paired with a 6-speed constant-mesh gearbox and a wet multi-plate clutch designed for smoother gear shifts. The motorcycle features a 43 mm telescopic front fork with 120 mm wheel travel and twin shock absorbers at the rear with 90 mm travel. It rides on a traditional 19-inch front wheel and 18-inch rear wheel, keeping the classic Bullet stance intact.
Braking is handled by a 320 mm front disc and a 300 mm rear disc, both equipped with twin-piston floating calipers and dual-channel ABS for safety. The Bullet 650 retains iconic design elements like a square rear fender and a taller handlebar that provides an upright riding position, appealing to fans of the original Bullet while offering modern performance.
With this launch, Royal Enfield strengthens its position in India’s motorcycle market, offering riders the blend of heritage and performance they expect from the brand. The Bullet 650 is now on sale across Royal Enfield showrooms in India.
