The two new motorcycles take different approaches to mid-size riding, with the Guerrilla 450 Apex focused on sporty road performance and the Goan Classic 350 leaning into relaxed bobber styling.
Royal Enfield has expanded its Philippine lineup with the launch of the Guerrilla 450 Apex and Goan Classic 350, bringing two distinctly different takes on the mid-size motorcycle segment.
Available through Royal Enfield stores nationwide, the Guerrilla 450 Apex is priced at PHP289,000, while the Goan Classic 350 starts at PHP249,000. The former builds on the brand’s modern roadster platform with a more focused riding position and road-biased setup, while the latter draws heavily from bobber culture and the free-spirited character associated with Goa.
Guerrilla 450 Apex sharpens its road focus
The 2026 Guerrilla 450 Apex uses Royal Enfield’s Sherpa platform with a steel twin-spar frame and continues to produce 40PS and 40Nm. Its changes focus primarily on ergonomics, tires, ride modes, and styling rather than a major powertrain revision.
Lowered and repositioned aluminum handlebars create a more forward-leaning riding triangle, while 17-inch Vredestein Centuro ST road-biased tires are intended to improve grip on wet and low-friction surfaces. Refined Street and Sport ride modes now include mode retention, allowing the motorcycle to retain the last selected setting after the ignition has been switched off.
The Apex variant is offered in Apex Red, Apex Green, and Apex Black, with rim tapes, a sculpted rear seat cowl, and a color-coded front cowl reinforcing the sportier look. Complimentary handguards and a headlight grille are also included.
Across the wider 2026 Guerrilla 450 range, Royal Enfield has also added Twilight Blue to the Dash variant and updated the ride modes with mode retention. All versions use the Tripper Dash, a circular 4-inch TFT display with Google Maps-powered navigation and smartphone connectivity.
Goan Classic 350 takes the laid-back route
Where the Guerrilla 450 Apex emphasizes a sportier roadster character, the Goan Classic 350 takes a more relaxed, bobber-inspired approach.
Its styling draws from the counterculture associated with Goa during the 1970s and 1980s, combining retro design cues with modern hardware. Power comes from a 349cc air-oil-cooled single-cylinder engine producing 20.2bhp at 6,100rpm and 27Nm at 4,000rpm, paired with a five-speed gearbox.
The motorcycle uses a twin downtube spine frame, 41mm telescopic front forks, and twin rear shock absorbers. It rides on a 19-inch front and 16-inch rear wheel setup with aluminum spokes and whitewall tubeless tires, while dual-channel ABS works with a 300mm front disc and 270mm rear disc.
A relaxed riding posture, mid-mounted foot controls, and ergonomic handlebars suit the Goan Classic’s more unhurried character. The bolt-on pillion seat also allows owners to switch between single- and dual-seat configurations.
Retro styling with modern convenience
The Goan Classic 350 blends its classic styling with several contemporary features, including a gear-position indicator, Tripper navigation pod, and USB Type-C charging port.
LED headlamps, pilot lamps, and turn indicators provide modern lighting, while aluminum switch cubes add a more premium touch. Chrome accents and slash-cut silencers further reinforce the motorcycle’s bobber-inspired design.
“The Goan Classic 350 celebrates non-conformity and a free-spirited lifestyle in a bobber-inspired form,” said Manoj Gajarlawar, Asia Pacific business head at Royal Enfield. “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.”
He added that the 2026 Guerrilla updates sharpen that positioning through revised ergonomics, road-biased tires, and other changes intended to give the motorcycle a more agile road-focused character.
Philippine pricing and colors
The Guerrilla 450 Apex is available in Apex Red, Apex Green, and Apex Black at PHP289,000.
The Goan Classic 350 comes in four colorways. Shack Black and Purple Haze are priced at PHP249,000, while Rave Redand Trip Teal are priced at PHP262,000.
