Royal Enfield Bullet 650 and Flying Flea Electric Bike Unveiled at EICMA 2025
Royal Enfield Brings Back Bullet 650 and Shows Electric Flying Flea at EICMA 2025
At EICMA 2025 in Milan, Royal Enfield expanded its 650cc platform and gave us a glimpse into its electric future with six new motorcycles to mark its 125th anniversary. The lineup includes the much-awaited Bullet 650, an electric Flying Flea scrambler and limited editions to celebrate over 100 years of continuous motorcycle production.
Bullet 650: Returns
The Bullet 650 brings back one of Royal Enfield’s most famous nameplate. The bike uses the familiar 648 cc parallel twin engine that produces 47 horsepower and 52 Nm of torque. It comes with a six-speed gearbox and a slipper clutch, which makes downshifts smoother.
The design stays close to the classic Bullet style. There’s a teardrop fuel tank with hand-painted pinstripes, a winged badge, and tiger-eye pilot lamps up front. It runs on a steel double-cradle frame with Showa 41 mm telescopic forks at the front and twin shocks at the rear. Wire-spoke wheels and tube-type tires keep the old-school look.
Buyers can choose between Cannon Black and Battleship Blue. The Bullet 650 will reach European and North American showrooms in 2026, but Royal Enfield hasn’t announced when it will go on sale in India.
Flying Flea FF.S6: Royal Enfield’s Electric Step
Royal Enfield also revealed the Flying Flea FF.S6, an electric scrambler built for city riders. The company is using the “Flying Flea” name for its upcoming electric range.
Details about the battery, motor, and range were not shared yet. The company plans to launch the FF.S6 by late 2026. This model follows the Flying Flea FF.C6, which was first shown as a compact electric commuter bike.
The FF.S6 has a simple design that keeps the rugged scrambler feel but runs clean and quiet. It’s Royal Enfield’s first real move toward electric mobility.
Classic 650 125th Anniversary Edition
To celebrate 125 years of motorcycle production, Royal Enfield unveiled a special edition of the Classic 650. It wears a red-and-gold “hypershift” paint scheme that changes color in the light. A gold “125 Years” badge sits on the fuel tank, and black engine covers, rims, and exhausts give it a darker style. The seat has quilted stitching for a more premium look.
The Classic 650 uses the same 648 cc twin engine as the Bullet 650. This limited-edition model is expected to go on sale in India soon.
Himalayan 450: New Mana Black Color
Royal Enfield added a new color to the Himalayan 450 lineup called Mana Black. The paint gives the adventure bike a cleaner, stealthier appearance. Mechanically, nothing changes. It still uses the 452 cc single-cylinder engine with long-travel suspension and rider-assist features for off-road control.
Shotgun 650: Custom Touch from Rough Crafts
Another highlight from EICMA was a limited Shotgun 650 created with Rough Crafts, a custom shop from Taiwan. The bike combines Royal Enfield’s design with Rough Crafts’ custom style. The company hasn’t revealed how many will be built or where it will be sold.
Royal Enfield’s Direction
At the show, Siddhartha Lal, Executive Chairman of Eicher Motors, said Royal Enfield’s 125th anniversary is a moment to celebrate the past and prepare for the future. B. Govindarajan, the company’s CEO, explained that the lineup shows a balance between tradition and new ideas — the Bullet 650 and Classic 650 for classic riders, and the Flying Flea FF.S6 for a new electric audience.
Royal Enfield has built its reputation on simple, reliable, and characterful motorcycles. The challenge now is to bring that same charm to its electric bikes while keeping them accessible and affordable.
