Royal Enfield presented its new motorcycle lineup at EICMA 2026 in Milan, Italy, marking the company's 125th anniversary celebrations with major global premieres. The centerpiece of the showcase was the launch of the new Himalayan 750 adventure motorcycle, entering the 750cc middleweight touring segment alongside the newly unveiled Continental GT 750 cafe racer.

At the trade show, the Chennai-based manufacturer revealed technical specifications for the adventure flagship and opened customer bookings across European markets. The presentation also featured the debut of the Flying Flea S6 electric scrambler, extending the company's zero-emission portfolio ahead of scheduled deliveries.

All-New 743cc Parallel-Twin Engine Platform

The new Himalayan 750 represents the brand's debut motorcycle powered by an all-new 743cc, air- and oil-cooled parallel-twin engine. The powertrain develops 55 horsepower and 63 Nm of peak torque at 5,000 rpm. Engineers tuned the powerplant for broad tractability, with 90% of the torque available from as low as 3,500 rpm.

In chassis specifications, the adventure machine carries a 224kg kerb weight, an 815mm seat height, and 205mm of ground clearance.

Comprehensive Touring Electronics and Chassis Equipment

Electronics on the adventure touring motorcycle include five riding modes, a 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit, cornering ABS, lean-sensitive traction control, and cruise control. Riders interact with the motorcycle through a 4-inch TFT display, while an adjustable windscreen provides aerodynamic protection across highway speeds. The rolling chassis incorporates a 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheel arrangement, available in either cast or wire-spoked wheel options.

Continental GT 750 Cafe Racer and Flying Flea S6 Scrambler

Alongside the adventure machine, Royal Enfield introduced the Continental GT 750 as a sportier interpretation of its traditional cafe racer silhouette. The cafe racer adopts an uprated version of the 743cc twin, replacing electronic throttle bodies with a conventional cable throttle setup and dual exhaust canisters. Available in both faired and unfaired versions, the faired model features lower handlebars for a committed riding posture and a hybrid twin-pod TFT instrument cluster. At EICMA 2026, Royal Enfield commenced European pre-orders for the Himalayan 750 with pricing starting at £6,999 in the United Kingdom, according to Endurrad.

Addressing urban electromobility, the company also exhibited the Flying Flea S6, an electric scrambler conceptualized for metropolitan commuting and light trail riding. The lightweight electric model incorporates a round touchscreen interface operating Fleaware.OS, multiple riding modes, and a dedicated off-road setting, with international commercial availability planned for summer 2027.
