Royal Enfield Classic 650 Full Specifications

The Royal Enfield Classic 650 is powered by a 647.95cc, air/oil-cooled, SOHC, inline parallel-twin engine that produces 46.39 bhp (47.04 PS) at 7250 rpm and 52.3 Nm of peak torque at 5650 rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed constant-mesh gearbox with a slipper and assist clutch - making city riding less of a chore and gear changes noticeably lighter than older RE models.

On the suspension front, the Classic 650 uses a 43 mm telescopic fork up front with 120 mm travel, and a monoshock at the rear offering 88 mm travel. The combination results in a ride quality that is firm - capable on good highways but can get tiring on broken urban roads. Braking is handled by a 320 mm front disc and a 300 mm rear disc, both with 2-piston calipers and dual-channel ABS as standard.

The bike tips the scales at 243 kg kerb weight, making it the heaviest bike in the RE 650 range. The 800 mm seat height is manageable for riders above 5'7", though the wide saddle means shorter riders may struggle to flatfoot. Fuel tank capacity is 14.8 litres, giving a theoretical range of around 315-350 km on a full tank at mixed riding. ARAI-certified mileage stands at 21.45 kmpl.

Tyre sizes are 100/90-19 at the front and 140/70-18 at the rear - both tubed wired-spoke wheels, which means tubeless tyres are not possible without aftermarket modification. The wheelbase measures 1423 mm, and ground clearance is 154 mm, adequate for most Indian roads.

The Classic 650's spec sheet reveals a motorcycle built for relaxed mile-eating rather than sporty performance. The 648cc parallel-twin makes it one of the most accessible large-displacement retro bikes in India at its price point. The dual-channel ABS is standard across all variants, which is a significant safety advantage over many rivals. If outright sportiness matters, look at the Interceptor 650 - but if it is character and style you are after, the Classic 650's specs serve that mission perfectly.
