Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 and Goan Classic 350 Rides Into the Philippines

Royal Enfield, global leader in the mid-size motorcycle segment (250-750cc), has launched of Guerrilla 450 and the Goan Classic 350 in the Philippines last September 3. With this, Royal Enfield further expands its lineup in the country with two new additions to its growing modern roadster portfolio.

Guerrilla 450 APEX

The 2026 Guerrilla 450 APEX arrives with accessible pricing and customer-first enhancements, making it a compelling choice for riders seeking street performance.

Built around the same visceral Sherpa engine, the APEX redefines intent through stance and control—featuring a lower, more committed riding posture, road-focused tyres, and design elements that amplify its corner-hungry character. Every element is tuned to reward rider input, making real-world streets feel faster, and more involving.

HIGHLIGHTS OF GUERRILLA 450 APEX VARIANT:

• Sportier riding position: Lowered and repositioned aluminium handlebars with a more forward-leaning riding triangle for a commanding, sport-focused stance.
• New road-biased tyres: APEX variant features new, road-biased 17” Vredestein Centuro ST tyres, carrying a sporty DNA while offering enhanced grip on wet and low friction surfaces.
• Updated ride modes: Refined Street and Sport ride modes with rode retention – allowing seamless switching and retaining the last selected mode across ignition cycles.
• Sharper visual identity and aesthetics: New CTGs, including APEX Red, APEX Green and APEX Black, further enhance the range, bringing a sharper visual identity. Standard rim tapes, a sculpted rear seat cowl and a colour-coded front cowl add to the motorcycle’s sportier stance.

All variants also receive the updated ride modes with mode retention. The newly introduced Twilight Blue colour on the Dash adds a refined, contemporary touch, enhancing the range’s desirability while underscoring the Guerrilla’s bold, road-focused character. It also comes with complimentary handguards and a headlight grill.

Built on the iconic Sherpa platform and supported by a balanced steel twin spar frame, the 2026 Guerrilla 450 continues to deliver 40PS and 40Nm, offering strong, accessible performance across the rev range. Across its variants, the motorcycle emphasises stability under acceleration, agility in corners and confidence through changing road conditions.

All variants of the 2026 Guerrilla 450 are equipped with Royal Enfield’s Tripper Dash – a circular 4-inch TFT display with Google Maps-powered navigation and seamless smartphone connectivity – enhancing every ride with intuitive guidance, real-time ride insights, and providing a more connected, in-control riding experience.

Goan Classic 350

The Goan Classic 350 is a tribute to the kaleidoscope of self-expression that formed India’s unique Goan moto-culture. It is a child of the freewheeling counterculture that emerged in Goa in the seventies and eighties – a four-stroked, sun-soaked hippie machine, always on the path of self-discovery and self-liberation.

Inspired by the vibrant coastal culture of Goa, India — the birthplace of Royal Enfield’s manufacturing heritage — the Goan Classic Edition combines retro-inspired styling with the performance-driven engineering.

At the core of the Goan Classic is the popular 349cc air-oil-cooled, single-cylinder engine that balances effortless power with refined character. Producing 20.2 bhp at 6,100 rpm and 27 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm, this engine is tuned for smooth, unhurried performance, ideal for the laid-back nature of bobber riding. The 5-speed gearbox allows for easy shifts and relaxed cruising, whether in city traffic or on open highways.

Built on a twin downtube spine frame, the motorcycle offers a smooth and stable ride across all types of roads. Its telescopic front suspension with 41mm forks and twin rear shock absorbers ensures the right balance between comfort and control. The edge-laced 19-inch front and 16-inch rear aluminium spoke wheels and whitewall tubeless tyres provide excellent grip, while dual-channel ABS with 300mm front and 270mm rear disc brakes offer enhanced stopping power. The relaxed riding posture, mid-mounted foot controls, and ergonomic handlebars make long rides comfortable and enjoyable, perfect for riders who savour the journey as much as the destination.

The Goan Classic 350 comes with an easy bolt-on arrangement pillion seat, allowing the rider to switch between single and dual seat configurations. The motorcycle seamlessly integrates modern technology with its retro design. Its dashboard includes a gear position indicator and the Tripper navigation pod for turn-by-turn directions, ensuring convenience on every ride. A USB Type-C charging port allows riders to stay connected on the go.

The motorcycle features LED lighting, including headlamps, pilot lamps, and turn indicators, improving visibility while enhancing its aesthetic appeal. Premium touches such as aluminium switch cubes add to the overall look and feel, making the Goan Classic a harmonious blend of classic design and modern functionality.

Commenting on the launch of these two motorcycles, Manoj Gajarlawar, Asia Pacific Business Head at Royal Enfield, said “At Royal Enfield, we have always been a rider-first brand, focused on evocative and aspirational motorcycles. The Goan Classic 350 celebrates non-conformity and a free-spirited lifestyle in a bobber-inspired form. The Guerrilla 450 has established itself as a compelling proposition for riders seeking an engaging, street-focused motorcycle that blends everyday usability with spirited performance. With the 2026 updates, we are sharpening that proposition further — with enhanced ergonomics, new road-biased tyres and features that amplify its agile, corner-hungry character. With a strong pipeline, we are reinforcing our commitment to delivering strong value while expanding the mid-size segment in the Philippines.”

In the Philippines, the Guerrilla Apex is available in Apex Red, Apex Green and Apex Black priced at 289,000 PHP.

The Goan Classic 350 is available in four distinctive colourways inspired by bohemian moto-culture: Shack Black and Purple Haze are priced at PHP 249,000, while Rave Red and Trip Teal are priced at PHP 262,000. Each features chrome accents and slash-cut silencers, giving it an unmistakable bobber-style look.Additionally, Royal Enfield offers a comprehensive warranty with unlimited kilometres and Roadside Assistance across its range, further enhancing customer confidence and ownership experience.

Riders and a passionate community are fostered with a rich profusion of events at a local, regional and international level.
