Royal Enfield Korea opens bookings for new Himalayan 450 and Guerrilla 450

Vintage Motors Korea (Royal Enfield Korea), the official importer of Royal Enfield motorcycles, has announced that it will start pre-orders for the completely redesigned 'Himalayan 450' model and the 'Guerrilla 450' model, which were unveiled for the first time in Barcelona, Spain last year.
The Himalayan 450 model has undergone a major upgrade over its predecessor, the Himalayan 411, and has been highly praised by off-road riders around the world since its launch. In particular, in Korea, it had its first public showing at the Moto Himalayan Changtang event held by Royal Enfield Korea in 2024.

The Guerrilla 450 model, which is also available for pre-order, is the most aggressively styled roadster motorcycle in Royal Enfield's history. Along with its luxurious finish and outstanding quality, this model boasts light handling and performance, providing a dynamic riding experience for everyone, from beginners to veteran riders.

According to Song Dae-chan, General Manager of Royal Enfield Korea, "We have been negotiating with Royal Enfield India Headquarters for one year in order to provide the most reasonable consumer price in the world to our customers outside of India."

Lee Myung-joo, Head of Marketing Team, added: "Royal Enfield motorcycles are the beginning of pure motorcycling that can be explored from urban riding to country roads, and even to Southeast Asia, Ladakh, and the Himalayas in India, beyond a simple means of transportation. We will create a fun riding culture at home and abroad with more owners."
The Himalayan 450 model will be available in Korea at 6.99 million won, which is about 1.5 million won cheaper than the global price, and the Guerrilla 450 model will be available at 5.99 million won. Pre-orders at Royal Enfield Korea will be open until February 12, 2025.
