Our take on this /// Verdict
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Flash is a compelling addition to the sub-500cc roadster segment in India. My experience with this bike has been nothing short of impressive, especially when it comes to its performance and handling. The Guerrilla 450 is the quickest and fastest retro roadster in its class, with a 0-100 kmh time of just 6.8 seconds and a true top speed of 160 kmh. The bikes sharp steering geometry and composed suspension make it a joy to ride, whether youre carving through twisties or navigating city traffic. While it may not be perfect, with some minor issues like vibrations in the mid-range and a slightly jerky low-end, the overall package is well-rounded and fun to ride. For those looking for a sporty yet accessible roadster, the Guerrilla 450 Flash is certainly a strong contender.

The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Flash is set to be available in India and Europe as early as August 2024, although North America will have to wait until 2025. This variant comes in a unique Yellow Ribbon colorway, featuring yellow and black on the tank with purple dots, or in Brava Blue with blue and white accents. The Flash variant boasts a 4-inch TFT instrument cluster that connects to the rider’s smartphone via the RE App, offering features like navigation, music control, and weather forecasts. I think this tech integration will be a big hit among younger riders.

Royal Enfield has designed the Guerrilla 450 Flash with a focus on modern roadster aesthetics, including a round headlight, a stubby exhaust, and block-tread tubeless tires wrapped around cast wheels. The bike also features a well-padded two-up seat and an upright seating position with mid-set footpegs. I believe the stripped-down design will appeal to those looking for a minimalist yet stylish ride.

The Guerrilla 450 Flash is powered by Royal Enfield’s new 452cc, liquid-cooled, DOHC single-cylinder Sherpa engine, which produces 39.5 hp at 8,000 rpm and 29.5 lb-ft of torque at 5,500 rpm. This engine is shared with the Himalayan 450 but has different tuning. I think the engines performance will make it a strong competitor in its class.

Royal Enfield has developed a range of accessories for the Guerrilla 450, including engine and sump guards, a comfort seat, tinted flyscreen, and luggage options. The Flash variant, like other models, will also have its own apparel range, such as the Crossroader riding jacket with titanium sliders. I believe these accessories will enhance the overall riding experience and appeal to enthusiasts.

The pricing for the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 in India has not been officially announced yet, but it is expected to be competitive given the features and performance it offers. The bike’s wet weight is claimed to be 405 lb with 90% of fuel in the 2.9-gallon tank, and it features dual-channel ABS as standard. I think the pricing will be a key factor in its market success.

The fuel efficiency of the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Flash is a crucial aspect for daily riders in India. While the exact mileage figures are not extensively detailed in the reviews, the bikes engine and tuning suggest it should offer reasonable fuel economy. The 450cc Sherpa engine, known for its balance between power and efficiency, coupled with the bikes lighter weight and optimized gearing, should provide a mileage of around 30-35 kml in mixed riding conditions. However, this can vary based on riding style, road conditions, and maintenance of the bike. For a roadster that packs this much performance, the expected mileage is quite satisfactory.
