First Look at the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Ahead of Global Launch

A little over a month ago, I pondered whether Royal Enfield was close to launching its upcoming Guerrilla 450. The reason for my curiosity was simple: I have been following the model since the trademark was first filed back in 2023. Specifically, the question arose when Enfield filed a trademark application for a Guerrilla 450 logo design.

Naming something is one thing, but many OEMs file trademark applications for names they may not necessarily use. Logos, however, are generally more concrete.

Applying a model name makes sense if you want to use it or don’t want anyone else to use it. Applying a logo indicates that you are planning to use that name yourself, likely sooner rather than later.

Recently, Royal Enfield CEO Govindarajan Balakrishnan and Managing Director Siddhartha Lal gave us our first glimpses of the Guerrilla 450 ahead of its global launch. They posted two different views of the bike. The international launch date is July 17, in Barcelona, Spain. Enfield’s international launches are typically live-streamed on its social media channels. If you’re keen on following the Guerrilla 450’s launch activities, follow it on YouTube and Instagram.

It’s the first time we’re seeing the newly trademarked logo in public, outside of its application filing. Someone in the Enfield offices used the logo to obscure a full view of the Guerrilla 450, but there are still plenty of details to take in.

The Guerrilla 450 will use the same liquid-cooled 452cc engine that first appeared in the Himalayan 450. There are other common features in the two new images as well. There’s a round LED headlight and modern LED turn signals attached to the headlight bracket. We don’t get to see the bike from the rear, but the taillight cluster is likely all-LED, as on the new Himalayan.

A pair of round, black mirrors stick up from the handlebars on the Guerrilla 450. The seating appears neutral and upright, likely comfortable for many riders. Alloy wheels, probably 17-inch, in black, are shown in both images and are clearest in the one posted by CEO Balakrishnan.

The shape of the tank and how it flows into the saddle is sculpted and modern. Where the Himalayan 450 has a rear carrier behind the pillion perch, there’s nothing similar on the Guerrilla 450. A rear carrier might be available as an option, but it isn’t shown in these pictures.

A pair of black fork gaiters are plainly on display, lending a scrambler air to the Guerrilla 450. The front fender hugs the front tyre and is not raised like on the Himalayan 450. The exhaust in the profile view of the Guerrilla 450 seems the same as the one on the new Himalayan. There’s also a small bash plate protecting the front of the engine, but it doesn’t wrap around the exhaust headers on the Guerrilla 450 like on the Himalayan.

The Guerrilla 450 also has a centre stand, as seen in the photo with CEO Balakrishnan. In the photo with MD Lal, you can see another important detail: the back of the display on the Guerrilla 450. If you’ve ridden any Royal Enfields in the past few years, you’re probably familiar with the Tripper Navigation pod the company came out with a couple of years ago. On most recent Enfields, there’s a round speedometer gauge up front.

On bikes with Tripper Navigation, they get a smaller round pod that sits off the side of the main gauge. Riders can connect their phones to this via Bluetooth for navigation displayed on that gauge.

The new Himalayan introduced a single round gauge display that incorporates all the instrumentation previously divided into two separate gauges. As we saw just before the Himalayan’s global launch, it’s a nice visual upgrade, both in terms of visibility and styling.

In the front view image seen on MD Lal’s Instagram, we can see the back of that single round gauge. It’s no surprise that Enfield would use it on this bike, but it’s still nice to see.

With these glimpses, excitement builds for the Guerrilla 450’s official launch. Stay tuned to Royal Enfield’s social media channels for the live-streamed event on July 17, and prepare to see the Guerrilla 450 in all its glory.
