                        A good bike under this price range. We will accept this bike for mileage and speed tork is also better. This bike is more better if this service is good . After sale service need to be better performance. Color and features also good and best for my side. My one of the favourite bike jawa 42 and other 42 segments.

                        I own this bike since 2022
                        I own this bike since 2022 it was fun to ride it but also had some flaws with its transmission whenever i used to down shift to 2nd or first gear it stops the engine I went to service station several times but it used to stop just for some days. Other than this it is a good bike to ride in city and very comfortable for long rides. And parts are not easily available.

                        Very good performance at this price range & comfort is quite good... overall looks are good seat a disadvantage is the seat height moreover about the pillion comfort is great if I'm the pillion no doubt I would choose this bike as my primary bike... and the good part is it isn't really heat as much as bullet 350

                        Good enough to satisfy my desired scooty
                        As of now I'm riding this from about 6-7 months, now I can definately say it's good enough to give you your desired comfort. Incomparable with the other scooters in this segment. Battery performance is good but wish the should be more long lasting. But it has some laging features like a noise from the front case of the scooty and moreover they didn't provide the foot pad. Incase you wish to ride with a lady wearing saree, it slightly can be a problem for you.

                        Unique Beast
                        I’ve travelled 4300kms in 6 months. Loved riding it in and around Bengaluru. Very comfortable. Wish the battery options would allow us stretch to 150 kms. The acceleration in exp mode is pretty low but the ride mode is perfect! The body protection is very well designed that no fall would impact the body.

                        One of the best bike
                        One of the best bike of royal Enfield. Loved all features of it. It is a value for money bike. It features a compect tank , short tail section, and chunkey tiers that gives it muscular street bike vibes. Honestly it's great experience and the sound of exhaust is very cool so my personal opinion and experience is very good.

                        Good bike for ride
                        Nice bike to ride. Awesome ride with this bike. Very smooth and sound is very good. Feel like we are in Air. No words to describe about this bike. It's really wonderful and good one. I recommend to take this bike because once you like this u won't be able to like any other bike than this. There is no comparision with other bikes.

                        Hunter 350 is one of best in Segment.
                        Hunter 350 is one of the finest bike of its segment and mileage is I think also better than it's competition. Found it's maintainace of this bike wasn't so frequently needed and riding posture and comfort Nobody talks about this.I have only complaint about clutch was sometimes goes very hard. yet, it's stylish.
