                • Pros
                • Cons
                • Jawa 42 Bobber

                  • Comfortable riding posture
                  • Agile handling characteristics
                  • Gorgeous looks
                  • Exciting performance from the peaky motor
                  • Decent suspension setup for a bobber

                  Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450

                  • The bike gets the same engine as the Himalayan 450. It offers plenty of performance in the adventure bike, so expect similar levels of performance in the Guerrilla too.
                  • Being lighter and smaller than the Himalayan in terms of dimensions, the Guerrilla should be easy to manage in everyday commutes.
                • Jawa 42 Bobber

                  • The engine’s peaky nature leads to vibrations on the handlebar, footpegs, and fuel tank
                  • Should have gotten a smoother gearbox
                  • Fit and finish levels of the instrument console could have been better

                  Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450

                  • Instead of the more advanced inverted fork, the Guerrilla 450 gets a traditional telescopic fork.
                  • The 11-litre fuel tank is 6 litres smaller than the one in the Himalayan 450. This may affect the total range in long rides.
                  • The 780mm seat height should be low enough for most of the shorter riders to place their feet on the ground comfortably.

                  Unique bobber which gets attention everywhere
                  This bike stands out the most in terms of stylish features in this segment, comfort of this bike I found it quite comfortable even for long distances. Its an eye grabbing bike with a high revving engine and 30 km/avg of mileage ideal for weekend getaways, or can be used as a daily its up to your lifestyle.

                  I switched from R15 to Bobber
                  I bought my 1st bobber this February 09 2026. I was looking for a cruiser, I went down to RE but test ride wasn't available and didn't got what I was looking in terms of looks and power. Then, my friend suggested me to checkout JAWA YEZDI MOTORCYCLES. When a saw JAWA 42 BOBBER i really liked the looks and fit and finish of the motorcycle. Later I take the test ride and this is beast exactly what I was looking for... I booked the motorcycle same day in August 2025 and took delivery this month. However the clutch and gear shifting is not as smooth as Japanese motorcycle. But that is completely fine not an issue.

                  The stunning java
                  Because of the design and style which made me impress and I like this bike which has single seated but compared to other single bike this looks amazing and I have already ride this bike before, which made me to take it. Good compared to other bikes as it comes with single seated riders for alone is the best bike for them I felt very comfortable as compared to other bikes it also has good mileage with that power. It feels amazing. I highly recommend this for those who are alone it is the best bike for them and also enjoyable as it has stunning design and style. It looks similar to super bikes because of the design of the bike. It also has good performance overall.

                  Best bike in Segment
                  Best looks for the price I paid for. No regrets after buying this. And also no guilt to skip Royal enfield. Should buy it as an enthusiastic person. Don't go for mileage and all it will give you the best comfort and you will love the performance from the bike without any modification. Best bike in it's segment with new features and modern looks.

                  Its amazing. Dont think too much, just get one
                  It is a beautiful bike- that never feels boring. The acceleration is undefeatable! and while it is sporty, it is surprisingly practical too. It's neither too heavy nor too tall, unlike the Himalayan. Its an absolute attention grabber and I love the colour I chose (brava blue). To sum it up- I chose this bike because it was beautiful, it was fast and it seemed practical enough for my use. I use this bike as my daily, and it has never failed me. It feels stable, planted, easy to manage. It always feels like i'm in control, I have not had a feeling of anxiety that it'll wobble, slip or be uncontrollable even once that I have ridden this bike even on high speeds. The fat rear tyre makes me confident even in rain. the feels grippy even on wet roads, loose gravel- though the bike did splash water on my back in rain, I just got the rear mudguard extender from Enfield and now it's not a problem, though I believe it should've been company fitted. The suspensions are comfortable for daily use, and even in Ghaziabad's bumpy roads I almost do not feel a thing. The engine yearns to red line, the bike wants to go fast and I love it every time I pull the throttle. The mileage is reasonable, with 25 on normal city commute (in power mode, using eco mode pushes that up to around 28. I can manage to get 32 if I ride carefully, maintaining gears to keep the engine at 4-5k rpm and not pulling the throttle/ yanking the breaks unnecessarily) It does get hot in the summers, but honestly I can smell the engine getting hot more than I feel it. Its hard to explain really, but hot air does not blow on my leg when riding so that's good, occasionally the win direction may align and the hot air may blow onto your face- but again thats rare. I am a bit conflicted on highway rides, because it is fun to ride on the highway, but the seat does make your buns feel sore after a while, but its manageable. highway mileage is around 28-29 in power mode, and around 30-32 in eco mode. I would recommend this bike everybody over any other bikes in this segment (except the adv tourers, if you can manage them ofcourse). Anyone can buy this bike if i'm being honest, Its fun, its not tall, its not heavy, its not too expensive to maintain, the breaks are reliable, Its stable, the riding posture is good, and its not scary to ride. you connect with the bike in the first ride. I love it, and i'm pretty sure you'll love it too. just go for it.

                  One of the best bikes in segment!!!!
                  I chose this because it's different from classic royal enfield bikes, it has better performance for city riding lighter weight, excellent acceleration a balanced bike with 450cc engine, ideal for smooth city riding and some adventure too just love it. My experience with this bike is lovely, it's my 2nd bike earlier I owned 125cc upgrading to 450cc just feels magical it offers smooth riding with enough torque and power to gap almost every vehicle on road. I like it's fast acceleration it offers a whole different experience for royal enfield bikes. Yes absolutely, I would recommend you to buy this if you are looking for 450cc segment than this is the best bikes, ngl ideally for daily riding or even if you want to ride on hilly areas it offers a smooth experience 40N/m torque will let you experience dominance on road.

                  This is a great bike which never disappoint rider
                  I was looking perfect combo of performance and the retro look of royal enfield. That's when I came accross this bike guerilla 450 a perfect combination of style, performance, looks, features. If someone is looking for an upgrade they must consider it. Pros that the power of 40 bhp can be actually feel while riding the initial pull on second gear and the bike goes insanely fast.this bike also got full tft display which several useful features such as navigation, etc cons of this bikes are its has low mileage as it's 450 but it also got lower fuel tank capacity which leads to frequent fuel stops. the initial low end torque of all the gears except 1st gear is way less. If someone is trying to upgrade their bike from 200 or 350 cc they must give it a try.This bike never disappoints in terms of performance, style and road presence. except for its lower mileage and less fuel capacity this bike is really worth the price
