The KX is a stunning homage to the historic KX produced by Royal Enfield in the late 1930’s. The original KX was a 1140cc V Twin & the most powerful machine made to date reaching top speeds of 130km/hr and advertised at the time as ‘the last word in luxury’.

The exciting new KX Concept celebrates the heritage of the model, but the Royal Enfield design & technical development teams have pushed it well into the future.

The details on this bike are pretty cool – bespoke illuminated speedo, beautifully detailed headlamp & tail light, hand crafted leather saddle and the hand painted pin-striping picks out the copper of the forks and other details. The many hours spent developing the prototype has really come to fruition when you appreciate the fantastic design lines of the bike – for example where the key line runs from the headlamp through into the tank.
