Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450: versions, engine and what to check when buying used
Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 — the 2024 modern 'roadster' motorcycle with a 452 cm³ engine. We look at the versions, tech and what to check when buying used.
Guerrilla 450 in brief
The Guerrilla 450 is Royal Enfield's modern, urban-style motorcycle built on the same platform as the Himalayan 450. It's aimed at those who want a simple, light and comfortable 'roadster'.
This model is very new, so the used market selection is still small. Thanks to its A2 category-compliant power, it's appealing to young riders.
Which version to choose
The Guerrilla 450 comes in three versions: Analogue, Dash and Flash. They mainly differ in colours and instrument cluster features.
The Analogue is the simplest and most affordable version, while the Dash and Flash offer more colours and modern features. The tech is the same across all versions.
Engine and gearbox
The engine is a liquid-cooled single-cylinder, 452 cm³, with around 40 hp and around 40 N·m of torque. The power allows this motorcycle to be ridden with an A2 category licence.
The gearbox is a six-speed manual with a slipper clutch. Electronics include ABS and several riding modes.
What to check when buying a used Guerrilla 450
Since the model is new, check if the manufacturer's recall work and software updates have been done. Check all the electronics, instrument cluster and riding modes.
Check the frame, suspension, brakes, and tyres for any damage from a fall. Ask for the service history and check if there's a warranty.
