New 411cc Royal Enfield Bike Launched in India

After being spotted multiple times, the much-awaited Royal Enfield Himalayan Scram 411 launched in the country today at Rs 2.03 lakh. Available in seven vibrant colour schemes, the bike’s ex-showroom price will vary depending on the chosen shade. The Chennai-based bikemaker has offered the new Scram 411 as a more affordable option as well as the road-biased version of the Himalayan ADV.

In the Indian two-wheeler market, the newly launched Scram 411 will lock horns with the Yezdi Scrambler and Husqvarna Svartpilen 250. Speaking of the design language of the bike, it boasts a round, old-school looking headlamp, a single-piece seat, a fully digital circular instrumental cluster, and an LED taillight. The manufacturer has developed the bike for mild off-roading and city traffic, and hence, the Scram 411 rides on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels clothed in dual-purpose tyres.

There are plenty of changes in the design from the Himlayan, as this new bike doesn’t feature a windshield, a beak-like mudguard, or a luggage rack. Instead, the 2022 Scram 411 gets a regular mudguard, new tank shrouds, and a grab rail. This bike comes equipped with a factory-fitted sump guard to protect the engine while off-roading. Its prominence can be seen from the fact that it is far less expensive to replace a sump guard than it is to repair an entire engine.

Powering the Royal Enfield Scram 411 is a long-stroke unit, similar to the Himalayan. So it’s a 411 cc air-oil cooled engine with a maximum power output of 24.3 bhp and a peak torque output of 32 Nm. It’s paired with a five-speed transmission. Braking chores are assigned to disc brakes on both ends, which are further supported with dual-channel ABS. The suspension is handled by telescopic front forks with 190 mm of travel and a mono-shock with 180 mm of travel at the rear.
