Royal Enfield is going to update its best-selling bike in India. The manufacturer has recently sent us a press invite, which hints at the unveiling and launch of the 2024 Classic 350, on August 12, 2024. The 350cc Royal Enfield bike will likely be updated with new features and colour schemes.
What could be updated on the 2024 Royal Enfield Classic 350?
The updated Royal Enfield Classic 350 is expected to get a new LED headlight as standard along with an LED tail light and indicators. The 350cc roadster may also get new colours and graphics. While dual-channel ABS variants are available, the single-channel ABS variants will also continue.
2024 RE Classic 350: What would remain unchanged?
The Royal Enfield Classic 350 will continue to be powered by the 349cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder J-series engine that produces a peak output of 20.21PS at 6100rpm and 27Nm at 4000rpm. It is paired with a 5-speed gearbox.
The Royal Enfield Classic 350 will continue with the same semi-digital instrument console. It has an analogue speedometer and a small LCD screen below it that shows the odometer, fuel levels and trip meters. The Classic 350 also has an optional Tripper navigation pod that offers turn-by-turn navigation and call alerts.
The hardware of the bike is also likely to remain unchanged. The Classic 350 has a 41mm telescopic fork and 6-step preload-adjustable twin shocks. Braking is handled by a 300mm disc at the front as standard. At the rear, the bike gets a 153mm drum (in single-channel ABS) or 270mm disc (in dual-channel ABS). The 350cc roadster rides on 19-inch front and 18-inch rear spoke/alloy wheels and comes with 100-section front and 120-section rear tyres.
Royal Enfield Classic 350: Expected Price
The price of the Royal Enfield Classic 350 starts at Rs 1,93,080 and goes up to Rs Rs 2,24,755, ex-showroom. We think that the introductory prices might remain unchanged for the new model. However, the bike may receive a price hike of around Rs 3,000 - Rs 4,000 later.
The bike will continue to rival the other roadsters including Honda CB350, Honda H’ness CB350, Hero Mavrick 440, Jawa 350, Jawa 42, Benelli Imperiale 400, and its own retro-roadster sibling, the Royal Enfield Bullet 350.

- Classic 350 ReviewIt is one of the most comfortable bike in the market and has a very good riding posture because of which riding for long hours as well does not feel hectic. It looks very good and stylish and has its own unique style. The ride quality has been very good. It gives the rider a lot of confidence while riding. With the new J series engine the pickup and torque also feels better and allows the user to manoeuver in the traffic easily. Yes I would definitely recommend this bike. It is not for someone who wants to go fast. But if you are looking for a calm composed and soothing ride quality, one should definitely consider the classic 350.Read More2 4
- My Classic 350 Experience in ChennaiThe Classic 350 has a heartbeat that unmistakable engine thump that feels like a pulse, not just sound. In Chennai traffic or on a long ride to Mahabalipuram, it gives character to every km. The Comfort for Daily and Weekend Rides, the seat and riding posture are relaxed, once you are on it, you surprisingly enjoy longer rides without feeling stiff. Its Versatile for City & Highway. From the busy lanes of T. Nagar to cruising ECR at dawn, it feels equally confident like its built for both chaos and calm. The engine is calm and linear It doesn't feel aggressive, but it pulls steadily. For city riding, the torque is helpful because you dont need to keep changing gears constantly On highways, cruising at 80 to90 kmh feels comfortable and stress free. Speaking of negatives, Engine heat can be felt during long idling in traffic, especially in Chennai summers. The weight is noticeable in tight traffic. In heavy Chennai peak hours, especially when filtering between vehicles, it can feel bulky fuel efficiency is average. Its reasonable for a 350cc motorcycle, but not impressive if compared to commuter bikes. Yes, but it depends on what you are looking for. If you want a comfortable, stylish, relaxed cruiser with strong road presence and smooth ride quality, its a great choice. If you want high speed, quick acceleration, lightweight handling, or advanced modern features, you may want to consider other options.Overall, its a solid and satisfying bike for everyday riding and weekend cruisingRead More1 1

Also wanted good bike which had good ground clearance and off road durability. Bonus was the mileage The ride so far has been very smooth, comfortable, and confidence-inspiring. The Royal Enfield Classic 350 is perfect for relaxed cruising, whether in city traffic or on open highways. The engine feels refined and delivers good low-end torque, which makes riding in traffic easy without frequent gear changes. On highways, it maintains steady speeds comfortably and feels very stable, even at higher speeds. Absolutely, I highly recommend the Royal Enfield Classic 350 based on my experience so far. This bike strikes a great balance between comfort, performance, and classic character, making it a joy to ride every day.
