Royal Enfield’s Bigger Himalayan Might Be Here: What We’re Seeing

Spy shots and the look

Recent undercover photos seem to show a near-production version of the Himalayan 750 out on testing—this looks like more than just a concept. The bike appears more polished than the current 450, with a redesigned front and a tank that includes a small fairing for wind protection. It also shows a high-mount exhaust and styling that really pushes a big-ADV vibe, so it's clear Royal Enfield are going for a proper adventure presence.

Engine and performance whispers

Under the skin, reports suggest the new model could deliver around 55–60 hp, which would make it the most powerful mass-made bike from India so far. The motor seems to be a beefed-up take on the existing 650 twin, likely tweaked rather than all-new and it could keep the familiar air/oil cooling setup. That combination would give riders noticeably more punch for long rides and rough trails, and might attract those who felt the current Himalayan was a bit underpowered.

Lineup strategy and timing

There’s chatter that Royal Enfield may offer a dual approach, keeping the 650 around while adding the 750cc option or perhaps slowly replacing the smaller engine depending on demand. Though nothing is confirmed yet, so take that with a grain of salt. It's totally and completely obvious, you know what I mean, that this is aimed at riders wanting more capability without jumping to full-blown big-bore bikes.

And one more thing (this is a bit of a personal note) if Royal Enfield pulls this off—keeping the Himalayan's friendly character but adding true mid-range power—it could be the sweet spot many riders have been waiting for, blending simplicity with proper performance.

If launched, the Himalayan 750 could reshape Royal Enfield’s adventure line-up and attract riders who want more power without sacrificing the brand’s accessible, go-anywhere spirit.
