The motorcycle runs on 19-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels, wrapped with wide tubeless tyres. The wheels are available in both multispoke and alloy options.
Stopping power is delivered by a 300 mm front disc brake and a 270 mm rear disc brake. There is a rear drum variant as well that gets a 153 mm drum brake at the rear wheel. It comes with both single and dual-channel ABS options. For suspension, the motorcycle gets 41 mm telescopic front forks with 130 mm travel and 6-step adjustable twin-tube emulsion shock absorbers at the rear.
The Classic 350 uses an all-new, twin-downtube chassis (replacing the ageing single-cradle frame), and carries over the Meteor 350’s 349 cc, single-cylinder air-cooled engine that makes 20.2 hp and 27 Nm of torque.
The Classic 350 is the company’s best-selling model yet with sales averaging very well over 15,000 units even today. The company has sold over 3 million Classics worldwide till date and is currently selling the same in over 75 countries.
The new Royal Enfield Classic 350 will continue to rival the likes of the Honda H’ness CB 350 and the Jawa range of motorcycles.
