Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 Spied For The Third Time In A Month
These frequent sightings come just ahead of Royal Enfield’s new product launch in August, coincidence?
These frequent sightings come just ahead of Royal Enfield’s new product launch in August, coincidence?
The Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 is a highly anticipated motorcycle, one that we are hoping will go on sale very soon. With three separate sightings in a period of one month, it’s likely that the double barrel shotgun is gearing up for the shot.
The Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 will be the third instalment in the company’s 650cc lineup and will offer a new attitude and flavour while packing familiar firepower from the same 648cc, parallel twin, air-oil-cooled motor that powers the Interceptor 650 and the Continental GT 650.
While we expect the power output to be roughly the same at 47.6PS and 52Nm on the Shotgun, slight tweaking to the gearing on the 6-speed transmission would not be a far-fetched thought. It is a roadster afterall!
However, what’s most interesting is that the new Shotgun will get a few new cycle parts when compared with its 650 siblings. For instance, the test mule was seen sporting upside down fork (USD) and twin rear shocks that aren’t gas-charged like the two other bikes. The bike will also get a single disc brake at either end with ByBre calipers, dual-channel ABS and alloy wheels too.
A recent sighting of a test mule loaded with accessories also suggests the bike will get the full suite of customisation services from RE. The mule was seen wearing items like the Tripper pod, auxiliary lights and bar-end mirrors.
Interestingly, the Royal Enfield SG650 concept on which the Shotgun is based was a single seat bobber. However, the Shotgun is seen sporting a split seat design. Does this mean we can expect a bobber variant too?

The Shotgun 650 will likely be positioned as a roadster as Royal Enfield also has the Super Meteor 650 cruiser in the pipeline. Moreover, RE has extended an invite for a new motorcycle scheduled for launch early next month. While the next bike in line could be the Hunter 350, the waiting game for Shotgun 650 has begun!
Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 User Reviews
- Worth it..This is an excellent bike and had great fun riding. The back seat is include along with the bike. Had 1250km run including office travel and long rides and it has been fun doing both. Great comfort. The sheet metal grey gives a batmobile feel and experience. Looks damn good without the back seat, I generally carry it in my backpack.Read More
- Review on Shotgun 650 (best in segment)The reason I buy this bike was to get a reliable bike with price range up to 5 lakh, and I wanted a comfort and a good looking bike, so rather than getting GT 650 I chose this, and honestly I didn't regret my decision. Its a bike with comfort and power. Even Super meteor is there but that is more suitable for Long ride. So for shorter and comfy ride I chose Shotgun 650. Talking about positives, Really good looking bike, you we be the centre of attraction. Royal Enfield reliable engine with one of the best performance in this segments. Gives confidence on high speed. Talking about the Negatives, its a Heavy bike, so not suitable for every person, heating issue, not a major issue as this is ha heavy bike and so this is common. Yes, a person who want a good looking bike with a satisfying mileage and comfort and suitable for city rides. Even a person who want long tours with this bike is also possible but still there are better touring bike with this price range.Read More1 1
- Best bike under 5 lakh .This looks very cool on road. I'm impressed by his looks, and it come with 650cc engine. It gives me extra attention on road. I also looked for re super meteor650 but I personally love this one. It's seat height, exhaust everything is amazing. It's feels very comfortable while riding. I went for long ride with this bike around 130 km from patna to my home town it felt so comfortable. However, the mileage is less It gives u around 17 - 18 per litre. I personally recommend this bike to people age above 25 because it is a strong machine with heavy weight. Even this bike is so stable but it needs power to handle. It's gives u old bullet vibe with extra features and power overloaded .Read More1
