The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 Mana Black Edition has been launched in India, at the brand’s yearly motorcycle festival in Goa, Motoverse 2025. True to its name, drawn from the village of Mana on the Indo-Tibetan border, this new Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 variant carries a distinctively rugged aesthetic. It is priced at Rs 3,37,036 (ex-showroom, Chennai), making it Rs 17,354 more expensive than the previous top-end Hanle Black edition. Here’s everything you need to know:
What’s New?
The all-black colour palette is complemented by dark-grey graphics and other elements that add to its adventure intent. Key changes include factory-fitted knuckle guards with aluminium brace, a rally-style flatter seat raised to 860mm (825mm on standard bike), a flared tail section, tubeless tyres with cross-spoke wheels. Lastly, the kerb weight is now 195kg – 1 kg lighter than before.
Royal Enfield has also offered the bike with a custom exhaust from Arrow, but this is only for the European markets. For a more detailed breakdown of the differences, you can check out our explainer here.
What’s The Same?
Hardware like the 452cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, 6-speed gearbox, assist-and-slipper clutch, steel tube frame, box-section swingarm, braking hardware, suspension, wheel sizes (21-inch front, 18 rear), dual-purpose tyres, 230mm ground clearance – all remain unchanged from the regular bike. Note that the tyres are tubeless, now that the spoke wheels can accommodate them.
Even features like the circular TFT console with Bluetooth, full Google Maps navigation, phone alerts, music controls; and the ride modes, ABS modes, all-LED lighting – are all carried over.
BikeDekho Says
The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 was already a strong contender in the 450-500cc adventure bike segment against rivals like the KTM 390 Adventure. But, with the Mana Black Edition, the Chennai-based brand has delivered a version that needs fewer aftermarket tweaks to have fun off-road. This factory-equipped, rally-ready variant checks many of the right boxes for those riders who want to go off-road straight from the showroom. The premium is also very reasonable considering the fact that buying those tubeless spoke wheels separately will cost you a lot of money. We just wish the weight was reduced further. The Mana Black can be booked for purshase or test ride at your nearest Royal Enfield dealership or through the brand's online portal.
Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 User Reviews
- This is better option for BIG GUYS.I chose this because i love going to mountains and travelling through dirt trails and since i wanted to travel across Himalayas the first option that came my mind was Himalayan 450 because my cousin had Himalayan 411 back then and he loved the experience so i thought same beast with extra power would be a great choice. Honestly everything is good and perfect as i had imagined, The comfort is good the abs is great suspension, perfect and the 17L fuel tank is absolutely perfect, I never feel the necessity to carry extra fuel with me. Yes, i would really recommend this bike to someone who is interested in travelling or doing long rides like ladakh, Warwan you can go to any offroad batch or destination in this bike and also this bike performs well on highway too.Read More2
- Himalayan 450ccI'm truly into adventurous and among tourer bike. I have like very few options and this one is far better among all bikes and it is very big good power and torque, good cc and it looks good on roads. Ride has been really good smooth, engine is great, suspension and stable highways, a bit heavy in city traffic, tough but on highways its so smooth and riding been fun on ghat roads too, like the rural area type. Yes, definitely its perfect for touring and weekend rides, if you mostly in the city it might feel too heavy, if you are tall there would be no problem for you but if you are short and basic, its not build for you.Read More2
- Royal Enfield as bought a amezing bikeAm 6.1 height so i need comfort, maintenance cost, features and style is so good, performance wise amazing and torque in 6th gear is next level. I bought this bike for a long drive and as well as city riding. Stress less ride, the variation in weight is due to the additional touring and safety features equipped on the top-end model. Here is a quick breakdown. Totally the bike is crazy i ride this bike continuously for 500km. For ADV lover one of the best bike. I would like to recommend this bike who has a passion in off-road they can buy with any second thoughts and style is so good performance wise amazing. But service is disappointed in some service station.Read More2

- 2 years review of Royal Enfield Himalayan 450Purely because of Royal Enfield reliability Upgrading from a 2015 classic 350 to Himalayan 450 is a massive difference, Literally is built for no roads. Feels like a bigger bike compared to previous generations. Bigger tank unlocks better highway travels. Positive about the bike is the Ride has been the smoothest the engine is very responsive in a good way. It is aggressive when you need it to be the plush suspension lets you move on and off road freely without any issues. Can be easily managed in traffic. Really good on the highways excellent seat comfort for the rider and the pillion for city travel as well as long highway travelling. Can be used as a daily commuter bike in city Negative about the bike Should have had the option for cruise control and quick shifter for better riding experience. I will definitely recommend this bike to the person who can firstly handle such a tall and heavy bike With great power comes great responsibility so if it is going to the first ever bike i will recommend to start riding the bike in eco mode to first get a hang of power and throttle responseRead More6 2
