It is offered in 4 variants and 5 colours. It is the successor to the Himalayan 411cc and is a completely new offering. The bike comes with all LED illumination, new bodywork and overall a better setup for off-roading as well as touring.\n\n\nRoyal Enfield has powered the Himalayan 450 with a liquid-cooled 452cc single-cylinder engine that makes 40bhp and 40Nm. It comes with a six-speed gearbox and benefits from an assist and slipper clutch. Its features list includes a colour TFT screen with Google Maps and Bluetooth connectivity. Moreover, it also gets switchable ABS and ride-by-wire throttle.\n\n\nThe Himalayan 450 has a weight of 196kg and gets a 17-litre fuel tank. The bike comes with three seat height settings. Here, the standard seat height is 825mm and it can be decreased and increased significantly.\n\n\nThe ground clearance and wheelbase stand at 230mm and 1,510mm, respectively. The bike rides on a 21-inch front and a 17-inch rear spoke wheel combination. It is suspended on Showa USD front forks and a monoshock while braking is handled by a single disc at both ends.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7fb94ef elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-column-slider-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7fb94ef\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-55fb760 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"55fb760\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;wdt_animation_effect&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5ae3081 e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-column-slider-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"5ae3081\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f83e98a elementor-position-right elementor-vertical-align-middle elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"f83e98a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;wdt_animation_effect&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><figure class=\"elementor-image-box-img\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/snowbirdhimalayaadventures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/450cc-rdfdizyl63rjywk9nf0dtpc2925mob4mrlz1tq284s.webp\" title=\"450cc\" alt=\"450cc\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">Performance<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">The Himalayan 450 gets a brand new 452cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine.
