According to reports, the Classic 650 Twin's launch, which was initially planned to happen at Royal Enfield's ongoing Motoverse event, is now postponed to the beginning of next year. For now, the reason for the delay is unknown, but industry sources believe the company is solely focused on the launch of the bobber-styled Goan Classic, which was unveiled during the motorcycle event. The Classic 650 Twin is expected to be positioned between the Super Meteor 650 and the Shotgun 650 in the lineup. It will have four eye-catching paint options: Bruntingthorpe Blue, Vallum Red, Black Chrome, and Teal. If you want to learn more about the upcoming Classic 650 twin, read on.

Except for a few parts that seem bigger and sturdier, the motorcycle is very similar to the Classic 350. It has the same teardrop-shaped fuel tank, round fender, tiger lamps, and round headlamp with a tiny beak. However, the dual exhaust pipes, broader rear fender, and larger fuel tank offer an individual look.
