Royal Enfield’s 650cc Bobber Spotted Again; Launch Likely Soon
The Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 looks quite production ready now
Update: Royal Enfield has just unveiled the Production Spec Shotgun 650. Check it out here!
Evolution is imperative, and adopting different personalities is the way to grow. Royal Enfield is the prime example of this right now with its Shotgun 650 test mule that was spied recently.
Based on the same 650cc platform as the Super Meteor 650, Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650, the Shotgun 650 is a bobber, a much different flavour from the rest of its siblings. It sports lovely retro styling with circular headlight, taillight, turn indicators and more. The test mule flaunted what appears to be a floating pillion seat, likely to be offered as an accessory fitment. Oh, one can also see the twin peashooter exhausts. While the footpegs are mid set, the riding posture is a little forward biassed, thanks to the slightly lower handlebars. The bike will also be available in a single seat option.

It gets the same engine – 648cc parallel-twin air-/oil-cooled unit making 47.6PS and 52Nm in the twins. And while the underpinnings are the same as the Super Meteor 650, too, expect the motor and suspension to be slightly tweaked. The bobber features a compact engine crash guard at the front.
Expect Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 to launch sometime later this year with an expected price tag of Rs 3.15 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), rivalling the Kawasaki Vulcan S. The veteran bikemaker is expected to launch the 2023 Bullet 350 and Himalayan 450 this year as well.
Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 User Reviews
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
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 More
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 More
