After buzzing through Delhi, London, and Mumbai, Flying Flea—Royal Enfield’s fresh new City+ vehicle brand—has made its way to Bengaluru. And it’s not just here to park its new electric motorcycle, the sleek retro-futuristic Flying Flea C6. The launch brought with it a burst of creativity, tech, and city-centric vibes, turning heads and sparking conversations.
At the center of it all is the FF.C6, Flying Flea’s debut electric motorcycle. It’s light, agile, smart, and crafted with a mix of nostalgic design and future-ready tech. Built for the city, the C6 is all about effortless commuting, with intuitive, multi-modal tech baked right into the ride experience.
The Bengaluru showcase wasn’t just about the bike—it was a celebration of culture, design, and collaboration. Flying Flea teamed up with Qualcomm for the tech side of things and unveiled a special creative series featuring artists from across disciplines. Multidisciplinary artist Ansh Kumar wowed the crowd with his kinetic piece titled “Shaped by the Wind”, which captured the essence of motion and freedom. Goji, a Bengaluru-based AI artist, added a digital spin with generative art inspired by the C6, while photographer Lekha Rathnam created a stunning photo exhibition playing off the motorcycle’s silhouette.
All of this came together at the Flying Flea Café pop-up at Sabha, where art met coffee and conversations flowed. It was less of a launch and more of an experience—one that blurred the lines between design, mobility, and self-expression.
Design is deeply rooted in the Flying Flea philosophy, and it shows. From the reimagined Girder fork—inspired by the OG Flying Flea’s front suspension—to the dramatic sculpted fins on the battery pack, every detail tells a story. The front fins are bold and forward-thinking, arranged in odd sequences to symbolize innovation. The rear fins? Subtle and symmetrical, nodding to the legacy and heritage of motorcycling. Together, they twist into a striking wing-shaped centerpiece—a symbol of the brand’s spirit.
Beneath the beautiful exterior lies some serious tech. Flying Flea’s innovations come from its in-house Tech Center, where a team of 200+ engineers across India and the UK have already filed over 45 patents. The FF.C6 runs on a custom-built operating system powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon QWM2290 processor. It adapts to each rider’s needs, thanks to a smart Vehicle Control Unit that can blend thousands of ride mode combinations, offering a truly personalized ride experience.
Flying Flea isn’t just building an electric motorcycle—it’s building a lifestyle around City+ mobility. It’s where intuitive design, future tech, and creative culture intersect. To stay in the loop, check out flyingflea.royalenfield.com or follow the brand on Instagram for real-time updates.
