Compared to the ADV, this scrambler rolls on smaller wheels, simpler underpinnings and a few other distinguishing elements
A scrambler-style derivative of the upcoming Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 has been spotted on test for the first time. It could be called the Royal Enfield Scram 450, and will likely be a more affordable motorcycle compared to the full-fledged ADV.
Consequently, it’s got several distinguishing elements that indicate it will be a comparatively affordable bike than the Himalayan 450. The round headlight is mounted on the fork clamp, and the motorcycle employs a telescopic fork as well. The fuel tank design looks similar to the one on the Himalayan, but it is without the tank braces. And, instead of a split seat setup, the bike gets a single-piece contoured seat, similar to the unit on the Royal Enfield Scram 411. The raised rear fender with integrated number plate holder looks similar to the Himalayan’s.
The bike rolls on smaller 17-inch alloy wheels at both ends wrapped with block pattern tyres. The rear end uses a monoshock, and the disc brakes at both ends look identical to the one in the ADV. Part-sharing is also evident as you can see the old school switchgear looking similar to the one in the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and the Meteor 350. The single-pod instrument cluster is likely to be semi-digital, with Tripper navigation assist offered as an optional extra.

The liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine will be the same as the Himalayan 450. It could produce around 40PS, and could come with a six-speed transmission, making it capable enough for highway runs as well.
While the Scram 450 might not have direct rivals, the Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 is one bike that comes closest. It comes with a smaller liquid-cooled engine, but more premium underpinnings, and retails at Rs 2,17,779 (ex-showroom Delhi). Expect the larger-engined Scram 450 to be pegged at Rs 2.6 lakh (ex-showroom). Royal Enfield will likely launch the Himalayan 450 first next year, and then, after some time, the Scram 450 should arrive. So, expect the bike to be launched some time by the end of next year.

I had to many optoins when it comes to mid range cc segment and goes for the budget and this stole my eye with the colours, the glare its has some charm that i wanted to hold and drive and honestly, its been great. Its been hell of a ride and i give it the best bike the enfield ever released the bike, I mean i'm not a guy who has issues with mileage or maintaince, but if you are it might be troublesome except that runs like a butter. Of course, if youre someone who wants to have a classic bike with power torque and i quote an indian brand cause i'm proud as hell while riding this beauty and beast, it gives butterflies not exaggerated.

An excellent bike with solid engine. It has that attractiveness to fall in love. Compact size, big blast. I choose to experience this machine for its style, liquid cooled engine, TFT display, suspension and everything. Long rides does not feel boring on this machine. It definitely give good comfort, mileage depends on situation, 17-22 in traffic and 23-27 on highway. The torque it generates is just fabulous. It has given me upper hand in drag races. Would definitely recommend this bike to teenagers and those riders who wants to experience the feeling of driving Himalayan. This machine is a segment killer, no other bike can pair with it except its big sister Himalayan 450.Read More
Excellent bike and this bike give more comfortable while driving long journey, and also bike suspensions are so good at village roads, it feels like going on highway, the head light drl so good at night time, that speedometer design also very unique in this bike, too honestly i'm satisfied with this awesome bike.Read More
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. Read More
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.Read More
