Technology plays a key role in enhancing the Shotgun 650's functionality. It's equipped with Royal Enfield's Tripper Navigation system, allowing riders to use Google Maps for seamless navigation. Additionally, a newly introduced feature called Wingman, available on the Royal Enfield app, provides real-time updates on the bike's location, fuel level, engine oil status, and service requirements. A USB charging port is also integrated, ensuring riders can keep their devices powered during long journeys.

To enhance riding comfort, the bike comes with high-quality suspension similar to the Super Meteor 650. While the Super Meteor has a 19-inch front and 16-inch rear wheel, the suspension system includes 43mm Showa inverted forks at the front and five-way adjustable shock absorbers at the rear, ensuring a smooth ride. Braking is handled by a 320mm front disc and a 300mm rear disc, complemented by dual-channel ABS to prevent skidding.
