[UPDATE: The 2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350 has been launched in India. To know the pricing, specifications and other details, head to our launch story here.]
Inching closer to launch, the 2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350 has been spotted testing yet again, with both spoke and alloy wheels. The bike will be available in two variants: single and dual-channel ABS (with the choice of spoke or alloy wheels). It appears to be production-ready and will likely be launched by the end of August.
The alloy wheel version seems to be painted in the ‘Classic Black’ colour, whereas the spoked wheel model appears to be in ‘Pure Black’ similar to the current-gen Classic 350. The alloy design looks slightly different from the current ones, so expect these rims to be a part of Royal Enfield’s ‘Make It Yours’ program. The alloy wheel variant will roll on tubeless tyres, which aid in handling punctures way better than a tubed tyre.

Expect the 2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350 to be powered by the Meteor 350’s motor (in the same state of tune). It makes 20.4PS and 27Nm, and is mated to a 5-speed gearbox.
Royal Enfield will likely offer the tripper navigation pod as an option. The upcoming Classic 350 was also spotted in a ‘Stealth Black’ paint, revealing updated switchgear (same as the Meteor 350) and a revised instrument console.
The sprung seat has made way for a regular one, with more cushion. That said, the telescopic fork, twin rear shock absorbers, and disc brakes at both ends will be retained. However, the single-channel ABS version spotted recently, will likely employ a 153mm drum at the rear.
We expect the 2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350 to retail at a premium of Rs 6,000 - Rs 9,000 over the current model, which retails at Rs 1,79,782 (ex-showroom) onwards. It will rival the Honda H’ness CB350, Benelli Imperial 400, and the Jawa.

Classic 350 mere liye ek comfortable aur enjoyable bike hai. Iska classic look kaafi premium lagta hai aur riding bhi smooth feel hoti hai. Long rides me comfort achha rehta hai. Pickup, handling aur exhaust sound bhi mast hain. Overall bike ka experience kaafi satisfying hai. I love to ride this bike.Read More
First of all it was dream bike, so of course once in a dream and there is no going back and also, everyone choose the brand like royal enfield, only the real men can choose royal enfield and ride it like a king. Best bike ever. Good milege even in city roads and great balancing features to ride this beast smoothly. However, someone is willing to ride in city then also it is very good bike for them, It's a quite great bike, really smooth. Because, this bike is an emotion who loves the bike should only buy this bike else, I won't recommend more. People think that to buy bike is easy yes, it is easy but to keep maintain such bikes should need some passion or josh to keep the bike run smoothly so that brand never goes off in style.Read More
Good but I think Royal Enfield should work on speed and mileage and they have to work on silencer because it is mainly known for its sound. If sound is getting silent in bs6, the bullet is generally getting downgraded ratings from all customers. Royal Enfield should work on this side and overall the experience is good.Read More
