2026 ROYAL ENFIELD GUERRILLA 450 APEX: SPORTIER PERFORMANCE MEETS URBAN AGILITY
Royal Enfield, the global leader in the mid-size motorcycle segment, today announced the new 2026 Guerrilla 450 APEX models for EMEA markets, a sharper, more focused expression of its street-performance roadster.
Built around the same visceral Sherpa engine, the APEX redefines intent through stance and control – featuring a lower, more committed riding posture, road-focused tyres, and design elements that amplify its corner-hungry character. Every element is tuned to reward rider input, making real-world streets feel faster, and more involving.
HIGHLIGHTS OF GUERRILLA 450 APEX VARIANT:
-
Sportier riding position: Lowered and repositioned aluminium handlebars with a more forward-leaning riding triangle for a commanding, sport-focused stance.
-
New road-biased tyres: APEX variant features new, road-biased 17” Vredestein Centauro ST tyres, carrying a sporty DNA while offering enhanced grip on wet and low friction surfaces.
-
Updated ride modes: Refined Street and Sport ride modes with mode retention – allowing seamless switching and retaining the last selected mode across ignition cycles.
-
Sharper visual identity and aesthetics: New CTGs, APEX Red and APEX Black further enhance the range, bringing a sharper visual identity. Standard rim tapes, a sculpted rear seat cowl and a colour-coded front cowl add to the motorcycle’s sportier stance.
-
Additionally, a premium colour variant is available for the Guerrilla 450: Twilight Blue, alongside Shadow Ash.
Built on the iconic Sherpa platform and supported by a balanced steel twin spar frame, the 2026 Guerrilla 450 continues to deliver 40PS and 40Nm, offering strong, accessible performance across the rev range. Across its variants, the motorcycle emphasises stability under acceleration, agility in corners and confidence through changing road conditions.
All variants of the 2026 Guerrilla 450 are equipped with Royal Enfield’s Tripper Dash – a circular 4-inch TFT display with Google Maps-powered navigation and seamless smartphone connectivity – enhancing every ride with intuitive guidance, real-time ride insights, and providing a more connected, in-control riding experience.
Commenting on 125 years of Royal Enfield and 125,000 motorcycles built on the Sherpa platform, Yadvinder Singh Guleria, Chief Commercial Officer at Royal Enfield, said
“The Guerrilla 450 has established itself as a compelling proposition for riders seeking an engaging, street-focused motorcycle that blends everyday usability with spirited performance. With the 2026 updates, we are sharpening that proposition further — introducing a sportier expression with enhanced ergonomics, new road-biased tyres and features that amplify its agile, corner-hungry character. We now offer one machine with two flavours, to let customers choose between an upright, street-first ergonomics with plenty of muscle, or a grippier ride to conquer every corner. The launch also coincides with two important milestones for us as a brand — 125 years of Royal Enfield and 125,000 motorcycles built globally on the Sherpa platform.”
GRRR x Fairtex
Royal Enfield Guerrilla has partnered with Fairtex, the iconic Muay Thai brand, on a special collaboration rooted in discipline, precision, agility and controlled power – the traits of an urban fighter. The partnership introduces a limited-edition range of Fairtex x Guerrilla gear, including boxing gloves, Muay Thai shorts and a T-shirt, alongside a custom motorcycle based on the 2026 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 APEX. Finished in collaboration colours with a raw, street-focused stance, the build reflects the focused aggression and athleticism shared by both brands.
The collaboration was unveiled at GRRR Nights X Underground festival in Guwahati, an event designed to showcase the motorcycle’s versatility and performance. Drift demos, drag races and hands-on experiences gave participants a direct feel of the Guerrilla 450, complemented by live sets from EPR Iyer and Shaddly Mellow, along with DJ performances and an enthusiast meet-up that brought together the culture around the machine.
The 2026 Guerrilla 450 APEX adds a sharper, sportier dimension to the product, broadening its appeal to riders seeking agility and control in everyday urban riding. The range goes on sale in EMEA markets from April. Find your local Royal Enfield dealership at royalenfield.com.

Royal Enfield ‘Custom World’ Busted Knuckles Build Off Europe
-
Busted Knuckles Build Off (BKBO) to showcase creativity and bespoke design utilising the Shotgun 650 as a base motorcycle.
-
Six Royal Enfield dealerships selected as BKBO finalists from more than 600 outlets across the EMEA region.
-
Final builds to be revealed at the Bike Shed Moto Show in London, 22nd to 24th May, with a public vote and expert panel to decide the BKBO winner.
April 15th 2026 – Royal Enfield, the global leader in midsize motorcycles, are renowned for making the most custom friendly motorcycles in the world. To celebrate, the brand is pleased to return with season two of the ‘Busted Knuckles Build Off’ (BKBO) Europe, a motorcycle custom build competition exclusively designed for Royal Enfield dealers, allowing builders to showcase their creative engineering, bespoke design, and artistic expression – utilising the Royal Enfield Shotgun 650, a platform inspired by custom, for custom.
Following a near six month build process and utilising a £5000 customisation subsidy from Royal Enfield, six of Europe’s finest Royal Enfield dealers will take centre stage at the 2026 Bike Shed Show, London on 22nd – 24th May, to determine which European dealer has built the most coveted Shotgun 650.
Royal Enfield dealers across key European regions were invited to create a custom concept, with six finalists getting selected to develop their designs into a physical reality.
The successful concepts were submitted by the following dealers:
-
Czech Republic: Vintage Garage Motors
-
Germany: Motorrad Bläsing
-
France: KS Motorcycles
-
Italy: Royal Enfield Rivera
-
Portugal: Unik Edition
-
UK: Krazy Horse
Adrian Sellers, Head – Custom & Motorsport at Royal Enfield, commented
“It makes sense for the final display of Europe’s 2nd BKBO to take place at the Bike Shed Show, an event that focuses on celebrating creativity, craftsmanship and culture surrounding motorcycles. It is going to be a real privilege to see the finest work from Royal Enfield’s dealer network take centre stage across the event, showcasing each dealer’s unique imagination and skillset as they interpret the possibilities of the Shotgun 650.”
BKBO took place once before, with the custom builds displayed at Wheels and Waves in Biarritz in 2023. Motorrad Bläsing of Germany were crowned winners with owner and creator Thomas Bläsing’s ‘Beach Cruiser’, having built it in just 4 months for his own pleasure.
The final preview of all six 2026 BKBO entries will be released online shortly before the Bike Shed show, with each machine benefitting from their own ‘documentary style’ film, these will feature across Royal Enfield’s social media. The public vote can be cast online and in person throughout the show, where the bikes will be on display around the ‘Dockside bandstand’, at the spectacular Tobacco Dock venue. One winner will be selected by combining votes from the public, Royal Enfield and a panel of renowned custom motorcycle designers on Sunday 24th May, with the winner receiving an all expenses paid trip to Royal Enfield’s Motoverse later this year.
Royal Enfield Launches First Authorised Service Centre to Enhance UK Rider Support
Text Here
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
-
The first official Royal Enfield Authorised Service Centre opened in Chichester at Mono Motorcycles on the 29th March.
-
Royal Enfield is looking to open further Authorised Service Centres across the UK, in a strategic rollout focusing on providing owners with service options reached in a reasonable time and distance from home.
Royal Enfield, the world’s oldest motorcycle manufacturer in continuous production, has announced the opening of its first dedicated Authorised Service Centre (ASC) in the UK, with a dedicated bay for Royal Enfield customers.
Starting with the partnership with Mono Motorcycles in Chichester, further service centres are planned to open strategically across the UK, supporting areas with limited nearby official dealership presence. This new approach enables Royal Enfield owners easier access to authorised servicing, with the initiative representing a significant first for the brand, and a convenient option for owners.
Regular servicing & maintenance appointments, plus warranty and recall related jobs, can all be booked to take place at these authorised centres, ensuring riders do not have to travel far to receive the official Royal Enfield treatment. Genuine Royal Enfield Parts will be used, with certified technicians all trained on the Royal Enfield line-up.
Owners are highly recommended to follow the given service intervals, with brand-new Royal Enfield motorcycles requiring an initial service at 300 miles or 45 days, followed by platform-dependent service intervals. This is every 3,000 miles or 6 months on the 350cc J-Series platform, 6,000 miles or 1 year on the 450cc Sherpa, and 4,660 miles or one year on the 650cc twin platform.
The opening of these Authorised Service Centres is a convenient solution for all owners, providing them with expert advice by RE trained technicians, and a place to carry out periodical maintenance, plus warranty and recall jobs.
After-sales advice for Royal Enfield owners can be found here: Royal Enfield UK website.
Critically, this ensures that all owners can easily adhere to the recommended service intervals, which is essential for guaranteeing the safety, durability, and longevity of the motorcycle, and supporting residual value if ever looking to trade-in for a new Royal Enfield motorcycle.
George Cheeseman, Royal Enfield UK Country Manager, stated:
We are delighted to welcome Mono Motorcycles as our very first Authorised Service Centre. This initiative further demonstrates our commitment to Royal Enfield riders, making sure we provide accessible, quality service right across the country. With this first appointment, we now look forward to adding, strategically, additional Authorised Service Centres, in areas where our riders most need them.
Mono Motorcycles can be found at:
New Barn Office, Row C Unit 4&5, Funtington, Chichester PO18 9DA

ROYAL ENFIELD CELEBRATES 125 YEARS OF PURE MOTORCYCLING AT EICMA 2025 WITH AN EXCITING NEW LINEUP THAT BLENDS TRADITION AND INNOVATION.
Lorem Ipsum
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
Milan, November 4, 2025 – Royal Enfield, the world’s oldest motorcycle brand in continuous production, is marking another monumental milestone in its storied journey as it celebrates 125 years of Pure Motorcycling. The brand’s EICMA showcase commemorates this landmark occasion by offering experts and enthusiasts a glimpse into its historical journey – and connecting this legendary past with its dynamic present and ambitious future.
Since 1901, Royal Enfield has created, nurtured and shaped motorcycling culture across the world – from Chennai to London, from Amazonian trails to the high passes of the Himalayas.
At EICMA in Milan – followed by Motoverse in Goa – Royal Enfield will officially kick off a year-long calendar of commemorative activities, signalling the beginning of a pivotal new chapter for the company.
Speaking at EICMA, Siddhartha Lal, Executive Chairman, Eicher Motors Ltd., said:
For 125 years, Royal Enfield has stood as an enduring symbol of authenticity, craftsmanship, and the pure joy of motorcycling. What began as a simple pursuit of building honest, beautiful motorcycles has evolved into a global culture that celebrates exploration, community, and self-expression. This incredible milestone is not just about looking back on our legacy, but looking ahead with clarity and conviction. At EICMA this year, we’re showcasing the full spectrum of what Royal Enfield stands for, from timeless design and intuitive engineering to bold, future-facing innovations that redefine what’s possible in motorcycling. The Electric Himalayan Testbed and Flying Flea city+ concept embody this evolution, blending our heritage with bold ideas for what lies ahead. As we look to the next 125 years, our mission remains the same, to build motorcycles with soul and make Pure Motorcycling accessible to riding enthusiasts around the world.
Bringing this story alive at EICMA, Royal Enfield unveiled a slew of new motorcycles, offered a peek into some soon-to-be-launched models and platforms, and showcased special edition variants of some community favourites.
Adding, B. Govindarajan, Managing Director – Eicher Motors Ltd., and Chief Executive Officer – Royal Enfield, said:
EICMA 2025 is as much a celebration of our 125-year heritage as it is a showcase of our evolution. The motorcycles unveiled here represent our commitment to timeless design, purposeful innovation, and the spirit of Pure Motorcycling. We are honoring our heritage by unveiling the Classic 650 125th Anniversary Special Edition, a seamless blend of legacy and modern innovation. Simultaneously, we strengthen our core segments with the purpose-built Himalayan Mana Black Edition and the Bullet 650, which breathes new life into an icon that has defined generations. Solidifying our electric future, we are expanding the Flying Flea portfolio with the FF.S6, preparing for a launch in 2026. Looking forward, we will keep propagating the Royal Enfield DNA, offering riders around the world a blend of authenticity, innovation, and Pure Motorcycling.
As befits a brand steeped in tradition, the lineup of new launches is helmed by the majestic new Royal Enfield Bullet 650. The Bullet has long been the heartbeat of the brand, prized as an heirloom by generations of riders and enthusiasts. Over the past nine decades, the company has refined the pedigree of the world’s oldest motorcycle in continuous production, and in 2025, it finds its most powerful expression yet: the Bullet 650, the epitome of old school cool.
Also unveiled at the event was a special edition of the Royal Enfield Classic 650, reimagined to commemorate 125 years of Royal Enfield. This special edition blends the timeless silhouette of the Classic with a strikingly modern aesthetic, representing the Royal Enfield’s ethos of balancing tradition and innovation.
Showcasing a new version of its celebrated adventure motorcycle, Royal Enfield introduced the Himalayan Mana Black edition. Inspired by the formidable Mana Pass route, the Mana Black edition accentuates the rugged, spartan character of the Himalayan.
Royal Enfield also debuted a one-of-a-kind collaboration with Shotgun x Rough Crafts inspired by its OG custom-built motorcycle. This limited edition motorcycle is a unique fusion of Royal Enfield’s modern neo-retro design philosophy and Rough Crafts’ unmistakable signature aesthetic, celebrating the spirit of individuality, craftsmanship and creativity that defines the custom motorcycle culture.
Also making its debut at EICMA is Flying Flea’s new Scrambler-styled motorcycle – the FF.S6. Built for urban exploration, the FF.S6. sets new benchmarks of sophistication, versatility and agility in the global EV space.
THE ROYAL ENFIELD BULLET 650 – OLD SCHOOL FOREVER! – Press Content Link
Since 1932, the Bullet has stood as a symbol of endurance, evolving without ever losing its soul. In 2025, the legend rides on with the globally acclaimed 650cc parallel twin heart, with more power, mettle and character – writing a new chapter in the world’s oldest legacy of motorcycling.
For 93 years, Bullet has personified authentic, uncomplicated motorcycling that has bound riders together across generations and continents. It endures like a heartbeat echoing through the decades, wearing its history with quiet pride. Born in an age of hand-drawn blueprints, while the world around it changed, it has never forgotten its roots. Each new edition has carried forward the essence of the original: simplicity, graceful lines, a sense of belonging to the rich history. Nine decades on, the Bullet debuts a new avatar that pays tribute to impeccable British lineage and indomitable Indian soul.
In 2025, the Bullet finds its most powerful expression yet with the acclaimed parallel twin 650cc engine delivering an authentic ride that’s more resolute than ever. Paired with it are the proven steel tubular spine frame, gleaming hand-painted pinstripes, iconic tiger lamps, and vintage-inspired 3D winged badge and a commanding riding stance preserving all the hallmarks that have made this motorcycle an icon for generations.
The Bullet 650 carries its legendary DNA forward in every detail. The vintage-inspired bench seat, traditional nascelle, and commanding upright riding stance stays true to the signature Bullet silhouette.
The Bullet 650’s twin engine delivers smooth power and effortless acceleration, ideal for both relaxed and spirited rides, while its precise 6-speed gearbox and light slipper clutch contribute to an effortless journey. With every curve designed in harmony with its parallel-twin heart, its substantial bodywork and commanding stance lend it the graceful presence of a true big-capacity old-school motorcycle.

The 125 Year Special Edition is a meticulously crafted physical tribute to the brand and Classic’s enduring legacy. This model, whose signature teardrop tank and nacelle headlight embody a design that has defined motorcycling for nearly a century, now serves as the canvas for this monumental celebration.
Embossed with a 125 Years crest in gold on classic red, this Special Edition employs an ‘hypershift’ paint application. This stunning finish fluidly shifts between red and gold, bright and dark, creating a dynamic visual experience that changes with the viewer’s perspective. The unique, kaleidoscope-like appeal highlights the fusion of heritage and celebration, and is the perfect tribute to Royal Enfield’s timeless, iconic, and evolving spirit.
HIMALAYAN MANA BLACK – Press Content Link
A striking new version of the celebrated adventure motorcycle, the Himalayan Mana Black is inspired by the Mana Pass region, known to be one of the world’s most formidable high-altitude routes.
The Himalayan Mana Black Edition channels the bold energy of the Mana Pass, through its distinctive design and ergonomics developed to optimise off-road riding. Draped in a deep Stealth Black finish with matte detailing, this edition embodies minimalism, purpose, and raw adventure, designed for those who see every trail as a calling, not a challenge.
A defining highlight of the Mana Black Edition is its factory-accessorised configuration. Riders can own a Himalayan that arrives fully fitted with exclusively curated adventure accessories. Equipped with Black Rally hand guards, a Black Rally seat for enhanced grip and long-distance comfort, a Rally mud guard designed for rugged trails, and tubeless spoked wheels that offer durability with modern convenience, the Mana Black Edition ensures every element is ready for exploration.
SHOTGUN 650 X ROUGH CRAFTS DROP – Press Content Link
The Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 is more than a motorcycle – it’s a statement of individuality. Inspired by custom, for custom, its modular design philosophy makes it a standout platform for customization and a perfect canvas for self-expression. Taking this inspiration forward, Royal Enfield today introduced the limited-edition – the Shotgun 650 x Rough Crafts Drop.
An opulent new expression of the motorcycle’s custom-first philosophy, the newest edition, designed in collaboration with celebrated custom builder Rough Crafts, carries a distinctive design language inspired by the “Caliber Royale” custom build. Channeling the full custom details is a real gold leaf stripe, shadowed in grey runs across the body, accenting a bold gloss jet black and matt stealth black combination. A hand-cast solid brass tank badge anchors its identity, and is a direct replica of the badge on the custom build.
This edition also comes with other premium details including seats with real quilted leather that matches the pattern on the custom build, and unique to this edition- gold fork inner tubes that support the contrast cut alloy rims and bar end mirrors that further elevates its premium stance.
Limited to just 100 individually numbered units across India, Europe, North America, and APAC, the Shotgun 650 x Rough Crafts Drop stands as a collectible icon, that inspires desirability while reaffirming Royal Enfield’s deep connection to the culture of personalization. Each unit will come with a unique, hand signed limited edition art print by Rough Crafts. Further information regarding the ownership process of this limited-edition motorcycle will be communicated shortly.
FLYING FLEA SCRAMBLER – THE URBAN EXPLORER HAS LANDED – Press Content Link
Building on the commitment to keep moving forever forward, Flying Flea, the city+ mobility brand from Royal Enfield, unveiled the scrambler-styled Flying Flea S6 at EICMA 2025 today. Combining lightweight structure and refined design with off-road ability, the FF.S6 is an agile, versatile vehicle that pushes the boundaries of urban exploration.
Inspired by history and designed for the future, Flying Flea launched its first product – the elegantly-styled FF.C6 – at EICMA 2024. The new scrambler-styled FF.S6 follows the same ethos as the original Flying Flea motorcycles, which were purpose-built and airdropped via parachute for lightweight, all-terrain riding. The FF.S6 is deeply rooted in this DNA of lightness, agility, and adaptability.
The FF.S6 is a significant and natural addition to the Flying Flea portfolio – a perfect blend of historic authenticity and modern capability, engineered for the urban environment and beyond. It is a road-ready and trail-ready evolution of the brand, offering riders the freedom and flexibility required to navigate varied urban scapes.
The FF.S6 is a lightweight city+ explorer built for those who crave adventure, whether navigating unexplored city corners, nearby trails, or fun backroads. The motorcycle lends the perfect balance between agility and confidence across diverse terrain. Its scrambler capability is supported by a USD front fork, a chain final drive, and a staggered wheel setup (19-inch front, 18-inch rear). The ride and handling experience is elevated by a high-torque EV motor and a long, comfortable enduro-style seat.
Winter price cuts on selected Suzuki models

To make it even easier for customers to put a new motorcycle in the garage this winter and prepare for the forthcoming spring, Suzuki has dropped the prices of a number of key models in its range, via a healthy dealer contribution.
Suzuki dealers will be offering a £1,000 deposit contribution on the GSX-S1000GT+ sports tourer, and the GSX-8T and GSX-8TT modern retros. There will also be a £300 contribution from authorised Suzuki retailers on the GSX-8S middleweight naked.

As a result, the £1,000 contribution reduces the OTR price of the GSX-S1000GT+ – complete with its standard-fit 36-litre panniers – to just £11,999. The 8TT drops to £8,999, and the 8TT to £8,599. The £300 contribution to the 8S makes it £7,999 OTR. The new OTR prices are available to both finance and cash buyers.
The 8T and 8TT pack Suzuki’s award-winning 776cc parallel twin engine into retro-inspired packages; the 8T takes inspiration from Suzuki’s T500, while the 8TT is a clear nod to the GS1000S. Along with the 8S, they feature a bi-directional quickshifter as standard and a choice of power modes and traction control settings. The punchy, torque-laden motor is wrapped in a steel frame with a separate bolt-on subframe.

All four models are also currently included in Suzuki’s offer of free heated grips, which runs until the end of January 2026, and all come with up-to-10-year-warranty.
The price reduction further underlines Suzuki’s commitment to making it easier for customers to plan ahead and own a new motorcycle ready for the season ahead, following the reduction of its rate of finance on several other models in the range.
