The 125th Anniversary Edition of the Royal Enfield Class 650 motorcycle launched with the ex-showroom price of ₹4.26 lakh. The Royal Enfield itself has confirmed it is limited to only 125 units for each key market, including India. Registration for this motorcycle began with the launch, which is all set to continue until October 28, 2026.
The Royal Enfield Classic 650 Hypershift has made its debut with the bespoke hypershift paint, handcrafted detailing, vintage brown leather seat, blacked-out mechanics, and modern equipment. Royal Enfield says that the delivery for this motorcycle will start in November 2026; the actual date is yet to be disclosed.
The bespoke hypershift paint enables shades to change between red, green, and gold for this Royal Enfield motorcycle with the movement of light. These paint details can be seen clearly on the fuel tank, side panels, mudguards, and headlamp nacelle of the bike. This paint job makes this motorcycle exclusive in the segment.
Its internal combustion engine and exhaust components have a black finish that adds contrasts. Its fuel tank design is familiar to the regular Royal Enfield Classic 650, but the 125th Anniversary Edition version has a central black section that is outlined with the hand-painted pinstripes, as per reports. Another thing that we get to see on the tank is the brand’s cannon decal.
Seeing from the sides, you will also notice a gilded 125-year crest on the side panel. The saddle-style seating arrangement is one of the highlights for this Royal Enfield bike; it gives old-school aesthetics with the quilted stitching. Apart from these details, the recently launched Royal Enfield Class 650 Hypershift is quite similar to the regular one.
Between the handle, it retains a retro-analog instrument cluster that includes a traditional analog speedometer and digital LCD showing a gear position indicator, fuel gauge, odometer, trip meters, and service reminders. Also features a USB-C-type charging port that enhances phone charging convenience while riding.
The suspension setup is also similar to the regular Royal Enfield Classic 650 motorcycle. It means the recently launched version also has 43 mm Showa telescopic forks at the front with 120 mm travel and Showa twin-tube hydraulic shock absorbers at the rear with 90 mm travel.
Even the braking system remains the same. The 320 mm hydraulic disc paired with a twin-piston floating caliper at front and 300 mm hydraulic disc paired with a twin-piston floating caliper on the rear wheel are standard, also with double-channel ABS that ensures braking safety.
For the 125th Anniversary Edition, the seat height remains 800 mm, and the ground clearance is 800 mm. Other dimensions such as length, width, and height are familiar. The 1,475 mm wheelbase, 14.7-liter fuel tank, and 243 kg are the other specifications that the Royal Enfield has disclosed.
The wire-spoked wheel of 19 inches at the front and 18 inches at the rear is standard. The front one wears 100/90 tube tires, and the rear one does 140/70. Powering this Royal Enfield motorcycle is the same 647.95 cc, 4-stroke, air/oil-cooled, SOHC, inline twin-cylinder petrol-powered internal combustion engine.
Officially unveiling shows that the ICE used for this bike is mated with the 6-speed constant mesh gearbox with a wet multi-plate clutch, which puts out 47.04 PS (34.6 kW) at 7,250 rpm and 52.3 Nm at 5,650 rpm. Reports suggest that its 0 to 100 kmph acceleration timing will remain under 7 seconds, and it will reach a top speed of 157 kmph.
