Highlighting its functionality, the bike includes a distinctive beak-like front fender. The front end showcases a round LED headlight, an ergonomic single-piece handlebar, a muscular fuel tank, a windscreen, and round mirrors. At the rear, the design remains streamlined with a compact tail section equipped with an LED taillight and slim indicators. Completing its rugged appeal, the bike sports a stubby, upswept exhaust that shines with its overall aesthetic.Engine Both the Guerrilla 450 and Himalayan 450 share a 452cc liquid-cooled, single cylinder Sherpa engine, which produces a maximum power of 40.02PS at 8000 rpm and 40 Nm of peak torque at 5500 rpm. However, the Guerrilla 450 is additionally subtly different in tuning and mapping and has a 2-teeth short rear sprocket.

The display includes dual-road set-ups for day and night riding. Both motorcycles have the same switch gear and a USB type-C charging port. Additionally, two ride modes are offered: Eco and Power for the Guerrilla and Eco and Performance for the Himalayan.UnderpinningsThe Guerrilla 450 uses a steel tubular frame and features a 43 mm telescopic fork (140mm travel) and a link-type monoshock (150mm wheel travel). Unlike Himalayan, it is built on a 43 mm inverted fork (200mm front wheel travel) and a linked monoshock (200mm rear wheel travel).

Combined with the wider wheelbase, this feature helps the rider feel more grounded. Plus, it offers a much lower seat height, making it more accessible for shorter riders.

Moreover, this allows it to handle bumps better compared to other models.     The X440, Speed 400 and Mavrick have the largest fuel tanks in the group. With a claimed range of 35 km, the X440 is expected to offer the longest range.

However, Triumph is now offering Rs 10,000 on the Speed 400 until July 31, 2024, and beyond to match the Mavrick.     VerdictOn paper, the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450's price range makes it the best value offering. This is due to its performance and features compared to the other three bikes, the Harley-Davidson X440 and Hero Mavrick 440, which take the more delicate opposite approach.
