Calling all custom enthusiasts and free spirits! Royal Enfield has revved into Malaysia with the launch of the highly anticipated Shotgun 650, launched at MAEPS during the Malaysian Autoshow 2024 and is on display till this Sunday, the 26th of May. This motorcycle isn’t just a ride, it’s a blank canvas – a rolling invitation to unleash your creativity and forge a machine that reflects your unique personality
A Fusion of Past and Future:
The Shotgun 650 boasts a head-turning design that blends retro charm with futuristic flair. Inspired by the SG650 Concept, it’s a celebration of self-expression, available in four distinct colors to ignite your inner artist: Stencil White, Plasma Blue, Green Drill, and Sheet Metal Grey.
Power Meets Comfort:
Don’t be fooled by the vintage vibes. The Shotgun 650 packs a punch with its proven 650cc engine, ensuring a thrilling ride. Ergonomics are also top-notch. The mid-set footpegs, low seat height, and intuitive handlebar position provide a commanding feel and control, while the stylish single seat offers a comfortable ride. But for you enthusiasts who want to ride two-up, the bobber seat can be fitted with an additional seat transforming it to a double seater and back in a matter of moments.
Tech for the Modern Rider:
The Shotgun 650 seamlessly integrates modern features with its classic aesthetic. An LED headlamp housed in a custom nacelle offers excellent visibility, while the digi-analogue instrument cluster with Tripper navigation keeps you informed. Royal Enfield’s new Wingman app keeps you connected with your motorcycle, providing live location tracking, fuel and oil level updates, service reminders, and more
Built to Perform:
The Shotgun 650 is engineered for pure riding pleasure. High-performance suspension featuring 43mm Showa forks and a twin-tube rear shock absorber ensures a smooth ride on any terrain, from bustling city streets to winding country roads. Wide tubeless tires and powerful disc brakes deliver stability and control at all speeds
Customize Your Ride:
The spirit of customization extends beyond the factory. Royal Enfield offers a wide range of genuine accessories, including bar-end mirrors, sculpted solo seats, and contrast-cut rims, allowing you to personalize your Shotgun 650 and make it truly your own. Prices start at an attractive RM34,900 with a plethora of accessories and additions available at the discretion of the buyer
A Legacy of Adventure Continues:
