The upcoming Royal Enfield Hunter 450 will be the second Royal Enfield bike to be built on the new 450cc Platform, and it has been spotted once again ahead of its release.
From the spy shots, it’s evident that the Hunter 450 shares styling cues with the Royal Enfield Hunter 350, boasting a round headlight, round tank design, and single-piece seat. However, the sleek side panel and tail section resemble those of the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, featuring an integrated tail light within the LED turn indicators and a familiar exhaust design. These details were previously observed when the bike was spotted a couple of months ago.

Moving to the front, an LED headlamp is anticipated, accompanied by a round TFT digital cluster same as the one found in the Himalayan 450. Suspension-wise, the Hunter 450 is expected to sport a telescopic fork with fork gaiters and a monoshock setup. The spy shots suggest that the bike will feature 17-inch wheels at both ends, adopting the same alloy wheel design seen on the Royal Enfield Shotgun 650.
Powering the upcoming Hunter 450 will be the all-new 450cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled Sherpa engine from the Himalayan 450, generating 39.5 BHP and 40 NM of torque paired to 6 Speed Gearbox. It’s expected to hit the market with pricing around Rs 2.6 Lakh (ex-showroom) and is likely to be launched by the end of 2024.
Once launched, it will compete with rivals such as the Triumph Speed 400, Husqvarna Svartpilen 401, Harley-Davidson X440, Hero Mavrick 440, and the QJ Motor SRC 500.
