Royal Enfield’s upcoming Himalayan 750 has been spotted testing again, with the latest spy shots revealing several details of the production-bound adventure motorcycle.
The test bike features a large, upright body with a tall windscreen, round LED headlight and a broad fuel tank. The motorcycle also gets a single-piece seat, a tubular subframe and mounting points for luggage.
One of the most notable details is the use of 19-/17-inch cast-alloy wheels. The prototype is also fitted with road-oriented tyres, giving this particular test bike a clear focus on long-distance road riding.
The motorcycle is powered by an upgraded parallel-twin engine, with the displacement understood to be around 750cc. The engine is housed in a new chassis and is paired with a conventional six-speed gearbox. Royal Enfield has not yet announced official power, torque or weight figures for the motorcycle.
The suspension setup comprises upside-down forks at the front and a monoshock at the rear. Braking hardware includes twin discs at the front and a disc brake at the rear, while the bike gets an high-mounted two-into-one exhaust system routed along the right side.
The latest prototype also features a large radiator, and engine sump protection. The motorcycle retains a high ground clearance and an upright riding position, both of which are clearly visible in the spy images.
The cockpit gets a digital instrument cluster, while the switchgear appears to feature controls for the motorcycle’s electronic functions. However, Royal Enfield has not yet revealed the complete equipment list.
The Himalayan 750 is expected to be one of Royal Enfield’s most important upcoming launches. The company has not yet announced an unveiling date, specifications or pricing for the motorcycle, but the latest test mule indicates that development is progressing towards production.
More details are expected to emerge as Royal Enfield continues road testing the Himalayan 750 ahead of its eventual global debut.
