Royal Enfield Classic 350

Exterior Details

At first glance, there is no difference between the old Classic and the new one. But on paper and with a closer look, a lot has changed. The bike gets a better fit and finishes and functional updates as well. The updates include a new seat design, thicker suspension, better footpegs, LED treatment to the lights and more. The bike sits at 2145mm in length, 785mm in width and, 1090mm in height. The bike also gets better ground clearance at 170mm.

Engine & Transmission

The engine powering the new Royal Enfield Classic 350 is the same as in the new Meteor 350, but with a slightly different fuel map and state of tune. The new "J-platform" 349cc engine puts down 20.21bhp at 6100rpm and 27Nm of peak torque at 4000rpm. The new engine is air and oil-cooled, which is sure to change the in-traffic heating of the bike for the better. The 13-litre fuel tank claims an impressive mileage of 35kmph. And the power transfers to the rear wheel with a 5-speed manual transmission.

Handling

The Royal Enfield Classic 350 gets beefy 41mm telescopic forks on the front that handle suspension duties. The rear also gets a new suspension setup that allows a 6-step adjustable preload. The frame on which the bike sits is a twin downtube spine frame that comes from the Meteor 350. The bike sits on a 19-inch front rim with an 18-inch rim on the rear. Stopping power comes from a 300mm disc on the front, and the rear end gets a 153mm disc with dual-channel or single-channel ABS, depending on the variant.  

Features

The Royal Enfield Classic 350 featured a new Tripper screen that has carried over from the new Meteor 350, and as of right now only comes in the top Chrome series of the Classic 350. However, Royal Enfield says it’ll be an optional accessory in other variants soon. It still gets a mostly analogue speedometer, but now with a fuel gauge as well. The tripper is a new gadget that also features turn-by-turn navigation via Google maps and the bike also gets a USB charging port. In keeping up with the modification trend, Royal Enfield has enabled users to further equip a horde of features such as alloy wheels, visors and more, through Royal Enfield's Make It Yours app. This is an industry first, especially in this class of motorcycles.
