The Himalayan 452 sounds modern enough to take on the next-gen KTM 390 Adventure

(Update: The all-new Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 has been launched with a very attractive price tag. Read all about it in our launch story here)

The upcoming Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is one exciting upcoming bike! And while we usually bring you spy shots of it, this time around we have a leaked homologation document which has revealed crucial details about the bike like its power output, weight, engine capacity and a lot more.

For starters, the doc reveals that the bike’s commercial name will be Himalayan 452. Hence, it’ll get a 451.65cc liquid-cooled engine that’ll make a solid 40PS at 8000rpm. That's a LOT more than the current Himalayan, but it’s also made a lot higher in the revs than the current Himalayan’s 24.3PS at 6500rpm. While the torque figures haven’t been revealed, we expect it to be somewhere between 40-45Nm, ensuring good bottom-end drive. 

The doc also reveals a 394kg GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight), and given that its load carrying capacity is around the 180kg mark, which means the upcoming Himalayan’s kerb weight could be around the 210kg mark. That makes it around 11kg more than the current Himalayan’s 199kg kerb weight. 

What the doc also reveals is that it’ll have a massive 1510mm wheelbase. For perspective, that’s 45mm more than the current Himalayan and 80mm more than the KTM 390 Adventure! While that might mean good straight-line stability, we’re not very sure how it’d be to manage such a long motorcycle on slow, technical trails. That said, we expect the bike’s overall seat height to be a very manageable one, something similar to the current Himalayan as well. Other dimensions that the doc revealed are detailed below: 

 

Himalayan 452

Himalayan

Overall Width

852mm 

900mm (if you opt for handguards)  

840mm

Overall Length

2245mm

2190mm

Overall Height

1316mm

1415mm (if you opt for the taller windscreen) 

1370mm

So yeah, all in all, the upcoming Himalayan does sound bigger than the current Himalayan in almost every way. While the weight does sound like a bit of a bother, we’ll reserve our judgments when we ride the bike. And that’s not too far away either. So stay tuned to ZigWheels to be among the first ones to catch our first ride review.
