The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 is a roadster motorcycle launched by Royal Enfield in 2024. It is designed as a modern interpretation of classic roadster styling, offering a balance between performance and comfort.[1] The Guerrilla 450 features a 452cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine that produces 40 bhp at 8,000 rpm and 40 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm.[2] The motorcycle comes equipped with a 6-speed gearbox, making it suitable for both city commuting and long highway rides.[3][4]

The design of the Guerrilla 450 retains the retro aesthetics that Royal Enfield is known for, while integrating modern elements such as:[5][6]

  • Round headlamps and C-shaped LED DRLs
  • A muscular fuel tank with a capacity of 11 litters
  • 17-inch wheels with tubeless tires (120/70 front, 160/60 rear)
  • Dual-channel ABS and riding modes (Eco and Performance) across all variants

Higher variants of the Guerrilla 450, including the Dash and Flash, offer additional features such as a 4-inch TFT display with smartphone connectivity and Google Maps navigation.[7] The base Analogue variant features a semi-digital instrument cluster without smartphone integration.[8]

The motorcycle delivers strong mid-range torque, offering versatility for both urban and highway settings.[9] The 452cc engine allows the bike to reach an estimated top speed of 150 km/h, with a fuel economy of approximately 29.5 km/l.[10] Its suspension system includes telescopic forks at the front and a monoshock at the rear, ensuring a comfortable ride on various terrains.[11][12]
