Is the Royal Enfield Roadster 450's 40 PS power output weirdly situated between beginner bikes and more serious performers?

A lot of riders will find 40 PS to be the sweet spot. Being fun without being intimidating is enough. Very nice for daily riding and weekend trips.
Will the Royal Enfield Roadster 450’s modern features turn off traditional RE fans, or bring a new audience to the party?

Can a Royal Enfield Roadster 450 hold its ground against the established players like the KTM 390 Duke in the performance naked segment?

The Royal Enfield Roadster 450 – is it just a naked Himalayan or does it have its own identity?
13 January 2025 07:05
The naked Himalayan is way more than the Roadster. It’s a completely different riding position, feel, and handling. It’s like saying sportbike and a cruiser are the same thing because they both have two wheels.
Will the Royal Enfield Roadster 450 eat into sales of the Classic 350, or attract a different set of riders?

They will attract different buyers because the price difference is big enough. Roadster 450 for those wanting to spend more for performance, classic 350 for budget conscious riders.
