Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Review : Heavyweight cruiser and rugged adventure motorcycle have long been synonyms for Royal Enfield. But the Guerrilla 450 is about to enter the modern roadster space. This motorcycle is for those riders who want a combination of agility, style, and performance. Let's take a look into what gives the Guerrilla 450 potential as a worthy contender in the roadster space.
The center of the Guerrilla 450 is powered by the 452-cc liquid-cooled Sherpa engine, which produces 40 PS of power and 40 Nm of torque. This engine is tuned for a ride that is responsive throughout the rev range, making it suitable for commuting in congested city traffic as much as spirited weekend rides. It is complemented by a six-speed gearbox that offers seamless and smooth shifting to aid an exhilarating experience.
The Guerrilla 450's chassis consists of a steel twin-spar frame combined with 43mm telescopic front forks and a rear suspension setup with Showa monoshock. These features bring in a balanced ride with the ability to soak in imperfections of the road. The motorcycle's 17-inch wheels sporting tubeless tires of wide profile, 120/70 front, and 160/60 rear provides supreme grip and helps in cornering confidence. Riders have narrated how the bike handles well with good stability and agility, especially in town traffic .
The design of the Guerrilla 450 gives off a minimal yet effective look. It has an upright riding stance with mid-set footpegs to ensure comfort for long distances. The seat is easy to reach, thereby suiting a wide range of riders. A cherry on the cake of aesthetics is the Tripper TFT, which comes with Google Maps integration and Bluetooth connectivity that will allow Rider to access music, messages, and navigation without removing the phone from the pocket.
Royal Enfield offers various versions of the Guerrilla 450, including various types for sale: Analog, Dash, and Flash. The highest-priced Flash variant will be fitted with a full-color TFT display and improved connectivity. The different pricing has been set based on the choices made and the region but the Guerrilla 450 can be touted as a value-for-money proposition for the segment.
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 succeeds in bringing together elements of a classic design with modern technology and performance. It is for riders looking for something both stylish and functional. Whether in the streets or bends, the Guerrilla 450 promises an exhilarating ride. If a roadster catches your eye, the Guerrilla 450 is an arresting choice.
