Royal Enfield's Guerrilla 450 Apex takes the 452cc roadster and tunes it further toward urban riding. The handlebar is lowered 56mm, and it gets road-biased tires along with a sharper Sport-mode setup. Pricing in Australia starts at A$8,390. The review scored it 8.6 out of 10.
What I found interesting was the difference in tuning. The 452cc liquid-cooled DOHC single makes 29.44kW (40.2hp) at 8,000rpm and 40Nm. The Apex drops the bars 56mm, fits more road-oriented Vredestein tires, and sharpens the sport mode. They even pulled the rubber fork covers off to make it street-focused.

Enfield with road-biased tires and a sport mode, times have really changed.
At $8,390, wouldn't the Duke 390 be just as good for the same money?
The equipment's more modest than the Duke, but Enfield feels less likely to break down, which is reassuring.
452cc but labeled 450, wonder how sharp the actual sport-mode tuning ends up being.
Is it common to call it '450' even though it's actually 452cc?
A city-focused Guerrilla spec sounds great, 8.6 points is a pretty high score.
Lowering the handlebar 56mm and swapping tires, calling it the Apex off that alone is bold.
