Royal Enfield Classic 650 Twin: Pricing & pre-orders released

Bigger version of the popular Classic 350.
Powered by the 650 parallel twin from the BEAR, Super Meteor & Interceptor.
Tripper Navigation as standard.

Royal Enfield has officially opened pre-orders in New Zealand for the highly anticipated Classic 650, a motorcycle that blends timeless design with the enhanced performance from the 650 parallel twin. Prices start at $11,490 + ORC, with the Classic 650 offers riders a larger, more powerful alternative to the beloved Classic 350.

The Classic 650 retains the iconic aesthetic of its smaller sibling, featuring a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, rounded headlamp, and sweeping fenders, just with a more substantial presence, highlighted by twin exhaust pipes. The retro analogue dash is enhanced by Royal Enfield’s Tripper Navigation System and digital LCD display offering gear position info, distance covered, fuel level and more.

Featuring the same frame as the Super Meteor and the Shotgun, the handling of the Classic 650 should be great well suited for Kiwi backroads despite the old-school looks. And with suspension supplied by Showa, the 43mm USD separate-function forks and twin shocks at the rear not only keep with the classic style, but should also be up to the job of handling our rough roads. The old-school signature casquette headlamp is now LED and the Classic 650 comes without a pillion seat or rear subframe for a stripped-down look but can be added as an accessory option. The Classic also gets the updated switchgear. Braking is provided by twin piston caliper gripping a single 320mm front disc and a 300mm rear disc, both equipped with dual-channel ABS for enhanced safety. The Classic 650 will be available in four striking colors: Vallam Red ($11,490), Teal Green ($11,690), and Black Chrome ($12,190). Prices are plus ORC.

LAMS approved, the Classic 650 is sure to be popular with owners of the Classic 350 looking for a bigger machine. With pre-orders now open, New Zealand riders have the opportunity to secure the Royal Enfield Classic 650 and experience a motorcycle that seamlessly combines heritage-inspired design with modern performance.
