It will feature whitewall tires, an elevated handlebar, and a removable pillion seat.
Expected in the first half of 2024, it will aim to rival the Jawa 42 Bobber and Jawa Perak.
The bike will utilize the familiar 349cc, single-cylinder, air- and oil-cooled SOHC engine.

The Royal Enfield Scrambler 650 has been spotted multiple times undergoing tests on both local and international roads.

It will also sport a distinctive two-into-one exhaust system, setting it apart from the rest of the 650cc range.
The acclaimed 648cc, parallel-twin engine will power the Scrambler 650.
