Other Key Highlights

Royal Enfield has updated the Goan Classic 350 for 2026 with an assist-and-slipper clutch and a USB-C port that enables faster charging. Both features have been added without any price increase, meaning the bike continues to cost Rs 2.20 lakh for Shack Black and Purple Haze, and Rs 2.22 lakh for Trip Teal Green and Rave Red (ex-showroom).

Aside from these updates, the Goan Classic 350 remains the same, with its reliable 349cc air-oil-cooled single-cylinder engine that churns out 20.2bhp at 6,100rpm and a peak torque of 27Nm at 4,000rpm, paired with a 5-speed gearbox.
