Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 confirmed: 743cc twin, 54bhp

What Royal Enfield has now confirmed

Royal Enfield unveiled the Himalayan 750 at EICMA in Milan on 3 November 2026, and with it the company's first production motorcycle to use a new 743cc air and oil cooled parallel twin engine. The motor makes 54 bhp at 7,000rpm and 63Nm of torque at 5,000rpm, with 90 percent of that torque available from 3,500rpm, Royal Enfield's own EICMA release and reporting on it by Visordown confirm.

The chassis gets a 43mm Showa upside down fork with 190mm of travel up front and a Showa monoshock with remote preload and rebound adjustment and 175mm of travel at the rear. Brakes are twin 280mm discs up front and a single 255mm disc at the back. Kerb weight is 223kg, seat height is 815mm, ground clearance is 205mm, and the fuel tank holds 17.8 litres with a payload capacity of 195kg.

Electronics run to a six axis IMU, cornering ABS, lean sensitive traction control, cruise control and five ride modes: Road, Road Sport, Rain, Trail and Custom. A 4 inch circular TFT dash adds Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and navigation, under a 7 inch LED headlight in an aluminium shell. Buyers get a choice of 19 inch front and 17 inch rear wheels in either cast or spoked form, both running tubeless tyres, Visordown's coverage of the reveal confirms.

In Britain the Himalayan 750 is priced from £6,999 for the Aztec Green version on cast wheels, rising to £7,299 for Viking Bronze or Siberia White on spoked wheels, and £8,699 for the Antarctic Silver version bundled with GIVI luggage.

What the spy shots got right

Those European prices and that engine number close a story global spy shot titles had been chasing for over a year. Visordown photographed a Himalayan 750 prototype testing in India in June 2025 wearing 19 inch spoked wheels and long travel suspension, reading it as an off road focused test mule. By August 2025, Visordown spotted a second prototype in Indian traffic on cast wheels instead, alongside Royal Enfield's own social media teasers of testing, and read that as evidence of a second, more road biased variant.

That turned out to be exactly right. Royal Enfield has confirmed both wheel options on the same motorcycle rather than two separate models, which is closer to how Suzuki offers its V-Strom 800 range than to a split Himalayan line. What spy shots could not confirm, because camouflage and distance hid it, was the exact engine size. Royal Enfield has now settled that at 743cc rather than the round 750cc figure most coverage, this desk included, had used as shorthand.

What it means for India

Royal Enfield has not yet put an India price or a confirmed India launch date on its own pages for the Himalayan 750. Autocar India's report on the EICMA reveal says cruise control, TPMS and adjustable suspension are confirmed for the India spec too, and puts an expected price near ₹4.50 lakh, but labels this an estimate, not an official figure.

The India launch is widely expected at Motoverse, Royal Enfield's own festival, which the company's website confirms will run from 27 to 29 November 2026 in Vagator, Goa. Royal Enfield's Motoverse page does not itself name the Himalayan 750 among the event's reveals, so that remains expected rather than confirmed until the company says so at the event itself. Riders waiting on an Indian price should treat every rupee figure doing the rounds right now as a guess until Royal Enfield puts one up at Motoverse.
