Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 X Deus in Detail
For the drivetrain, Royal Enfield relies on the 650 twin engine. Its covers wear a piano black finish, while light alloy wheels with contrast machining set another accent. The brand also pairs this with a brown leather seat featuring an embroidered Deus logo and matching brown grips. The collaboration therefore isn't limited to an additional logo on the tank. The paintwork, seat, and grips all pick up on the shared design theme, right down to the clothing for the future owners.

Each of these bikes comes with a limited edition Royal Enfield x Deus jacket made of satin with a stonewashed effect. It features traditional lettering, and its inner lining picks up on the bike's paint scheme. This means the color design of the Son of a Gun is even reflected on the inside of the matching jacket.
