The world’s ‘oldest motorcycle company in continuous production’ is celebrating her 120th anniversary – and with Royal Enfield’s birthday bash comes a limited run of her 650 twin range.*

If you recall, RE debuted these beauties at last year’s iteration of EICMA. Now that the bikes have touched ground, CycleWorld, tells us that the brand’s festivities will include strict limitations on the range for each country – and they’re not playing games.*

“Both models will be painted black with chrome trim and be given die-cast brass tank badges…with only 480 units available worldwide.”

First off, these machines will be handcrafted with brass badges – a first-ever collaboration created with multigenerational artisans from the temple town of Kumbakonam.*

The brass badge was created by the Sirpi Senthil family, multigenerational artisans from the temple town of Kumbakonam, Tamil Nadu, India. This beautiful marker was made for Royal Enfield’s limited run range for her 120th anniversary.
