Royal Enfield’s long-stroke single-cylinder fashions have at all times had their signature sound and the eponymous thump is without doubt one of the largest attracts for potential prospects. However, the upcoming Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is powered by a liquid-cooled, four-valve single-cylinder engine that ought to have a shorter stroke. We lastly have our first style of what this new engine will sound like and it’s fairly totally different.

1. 450cc liquid-cooled engine will underpin 5 future fashions
2. Combination of RE thump with fashionable single-cylinder fast-paced word

Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 exhaust word: particulars

The thump generated by a long-stroke, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine (which underpins six REs presently) can’t actually be mimicked by a shorter-stroke, liquid-cooled mill though there are traces of that within the upcoming Royal Enfield Himalayan 450’s exhaust word. 

While there isn’t a traditionalist thump within the exhaust sound, it doesn’t appear to sound as gruff or thrashy as another bikes with a big single-cylinder engine just like the KTM 390 Adventure and the BMW G 310 GS. The Himalayan 450’s exhaust has a pleasingly deep word and whereas it definitely has a sooner idle than present single-cylinder Royal Enfield fashions, there may be nonetheless an audible beat at idle.

From this quick video, one of the simplest ways to sum up the Himalayan 450’s exhaust word could be as a center floor between the slower thump of the present Royal Enfield Himalayan and the fast-paced but considerably nameless brap of a contemporary single-cylinder engine. Do you suppose Royal Enfield has acquired this sound correct? Let us know within the feedback under.
