Royal Enfield created a major buzz at Motoverse 2025 in Goa by unveiling the Flying Flea S6, its latest electric scrambler and the second model under the brand’s dedicated EV sub-brand, Flying Flea. Following the C6 commuter EV, the new FF.S6 marks Royal Enfield’s most advanced electric motorcycle yet, blending heritage design with next-generation performance and connectivity.
