Dimensions of the Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 Revealed

Royal Enfield is gearing up to introduce a new contender in the 650cc segment with their upcoming Shotgun 650. Interestingly, there has been a bit of a stir in the motorcycle community as the homologation documents for this model have leaked. These documents have given us a sneak peek into the Shotgun 650's dimensions before its official launch.

According to the leaked documents, the Shotgun 650 measures 2,170 mm in length, and 820 mm in width, stands at a height of 1,105 mm, and boasts a wheelbase of 1,465 mm. In comparison, the Super Meteor, another offering from Royal Enfield, is slightly larger at 2,260 mm in length, 890 mm in width, 1,155 mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 1,500 mm. The difference in wheelbase is likely attributed to the type of wheels used. Shotgun 650, designed primarily for urban streets, has opted for a more compact profile compared to the Super Meteor.

The leaked homologation documents also disclose the Shotgun 650's gross vehicle weight (GVW), pegging it at 428 kg. This suggests a kerb weight of approximately 248 kg. As for the seat height, Shotgun 650 is expected to hover around 800 mm, similar to its 650cc counterparts. Despite its smaller dimensions, it's worth noting that Shotgun 650 might end up being heavier than the Super Meteor. This contrast indicates that, despite its compact size, Shotgun 650 is poised to offer a unique riding experience that prioritizes agility and manoeuvrability over sheer size and weight.

This engine pairs up with a smooth 6-speed constant mesh gearbox. As is customary with Royal Enfield, you can expect a variety of vibrant colour options for the Shotgun 650.
