What's New?

The Royal Enfield Classic Desert Storm features a very exceptional “sand” paint scheme reminiscent of the First and the Second World War era. Since this is based on a standard Classic 500, the Classic Desert Storm uses the same fuel injected 500cc, single cylinder, 4-stroke engine producing 27.2 bhp of power at 5,250rpm and 41.3Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm.

It is mated to a five-speed gearbox. The fuel tank is finished in post war era graphics, helping create a vintage look. At the back, the Desert Storm bike actually features a very short silencer for that 1950s look. Royal Enfield, however, says this is an optional accessory.

A rear disc brake is now standard, while ABS is an option that will set you back by an extra Rs 15,000. The Classic Desert Storm rides on a 19-inch wheel at the front and an 18-inch wheel at the rear.
