Just 25 examples will be coming to Europe

Royal Enfield has created a new limited-edition version of its Shotgun 650 middleweight motorcycle.

Built in collaboration with custom motorcycle and rider-wear firm Icon Motosports, the small-run Shotgun 650 will be limited to just 100 units worldwide, with 25 on sale throughout Europe.

Priced at £7,399, the limited-edition bike gets a number of styling tweaks and changes to help differentiate it from the standard Shotgun 650. Many of these take direct inspiration from the Icon ‘Always Something’ motorcycle showcased at the EICMA and Motoverse shows last year.

The custom paint scheme covers all areas of the bike

Most notable is the three-tone colourway which includes race-inspired graphics, while gold wheels and blue shock springs help to contrast the primary colours of the motorcycle. It gets a red seat with an integrated logo, too, alongside shorter bar-end mirrors to complete the custom look.

Owners will also get a custom Slabtown Intercept RE jacket, designed by Icon. Made from suede and textile with a race-inspired look, its colourway matches the bike and will be made in the same limited numbers.

Adrian Sellers, Head – Custom & Motorsport at Royal Enfield, said “Our collaboration with ICON Motosports for the Limited Edition Shotgun 650 exemplifies the custom possibilities of the Shotgun 650, celebrating the artistry and passion of custom building while pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with Royal Enfield motorcycles.

“The ‘Always Something’ by ICON was a masterpiece, and we are thrilled to bring this production version channelling its passion and style to our community of riders worldwide.”
