Shotgun 650 Unveiled at EICMA 2021
Royal Enfield showcased the SG650 concept bike model at EICMA 2021. In addition to this, the company launched the Shotgun 650 Motoverse Edition last year in Goa’s Motoverse. This is essentially the production version of the SG650 concept model. This time around, the company has launched the standard version of the Shotgun 650.
Design and Features of Shotgun 650
The Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 is based on the company’s flagship cruiser motorcycle, the Super Meteor 650, but there are some differences in design. The new motorcycle has been launched with a 13.8-litre petrol tank, which has a unique design on both sides. The bike also features an aluminium cowl above the headlamp. The retro-themed Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 has a premium design with a touch of modernity. It is primarily a cruiser bike, but what’s interesting is that the rear seat of this bike can be removed.
