EXCLUSIVE: Here’s What The Upcoming 650cc Royal Enfield Scrambler Packs
The latest spy shots reveal some interesting information
There’s a 650cc scrambler-style Royal Enfield bike in the making, which was first spotted in the UK. Well, the same bike was then spotted on Indian soil, albeit with a few visual changes. However, now, here’s a close look at the Royal Enfield Scrambler 650, which sports a few interesting bits.
While the test mule spotted presents an overall aesthetic similar to the bike spotted in India earlier, this time around, this bike does sport the dirt-tracker-style large oval side panels, which is more in line with the scrambler theme.
Next up is the Pirelli Scorpion STR dual-purpose tyres wrapped around wire-spoke wheels. The twin shocks at the rear are not gas-charged as the ones found on the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650, however these appear to still be pre-load-adjustable. The upside-down fork also looks to be different from the units seen on the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 and Shotgun 650, while the Scrambler 650 sports ByBre brake calipers.
The instrument console looks similar to the one seen on the Meteor 350. Also expect Royal Enfield to offer the tripper navigation pod as an accessory.
While there are a few upcoming Royal Enfield bikes sharing the same 648cc heart, like the Super Meteor 650 and Shotgun 650, we hope that the company tweaks this engine to suit this scrambler’s nature. For perspective, the Interceptor 650 makes 47.65PS and 52Nm.
From the looks of it, the Chennai-based manufacturer seems to be putting the Scrambler 650 through an extensive test programme, visible from the numerous test probes installed around the bike.
Royal Enfield does have a long list of bikes awaiting launch, the most prominent being the Super Meteor 650 tomorrow. That said, the prospect of a scrambler based on the 650cc platform is exciting, and it could be launched in mid-2023.

Royal Enfield Bear 650 User Reviews
- Beast named bearIm a tall person and i needed a tall bike and the looks of this golden shadow is just beautiful. I would have chosen interceptor 650 but this just was it when i first sat on it in the showroom. Cant get over of it. Posture has to be perfectly aligned will hurt if you don't sit right and the pull is amazing, even on the 5th gear you can feel the bike wanting to run ahead loved the overall experience, needs a seat change and tires can be better, my personal opinion If you are tall and need a 650cc from royal enfield id definitely suggest this bike way too good but, there is always a but be careful with the suspension, heavier the person better the suspension, the pull is great (torque) better than a gt most people would disagree but whatever.Read More2
- Thrill and Joy With Bear 650Being an owner of legendary bullet-350 for 13 years this was going to be an upgrade from castle to scyscraper, from bull to bear!! Riding Bear-650 is like watching action packed movie, you dont want to miss a beat; pacy, thrilling experience. It will make sure that it stays with you even after you left it in the parking area. Immense torque and power, a bit stiffer on suspension but you will get used to it and I think that stubbornness is what makes Bear the Bear. Go for it, if you want fun and thrill and not to forget that feeling of towering road presence on road while overtaking, making your moves.Read More3 2
