Experience the timeless design and modern rides of Royal Enfield's offerings

In the world of motorcycling, Royal Enfield has carved a niche for itself with its unique blend of tradition and modernity. The current lineup of the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 is a testament to their commitment to delivering timeless designs alongside contemporary features. These two bikes, each with its distinct charm, offer varied riding experiences, catering to different types of riders and preferences.



The Royal Enfield Classic 350 is a splendid montage of past and present, standing as a symbol of rich craftsmanship carried over generations. Built on the new J platform, this modern classic motorcycle breathes life into its heritage design, taking cues from the revered post-war G2 model. Its teardrop fuel tank, rounded mudguards, hallmark casquette headlamp, and singular paint schemes, not to mention the iconic thump of its exhaust, all contribute to its timeless aura. The Classic 350 is more than just a motorcycle; it's an experience that evokes the senses and highlights the timeless beauty around us. This bike ensures an exceptional build quality, promising longevity and pleasure for years on end.


On the other hand, the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 embraces the infinite journey of the open road with a spirit of cruising that's hard to match. With its classic contours and timeless design, the Meteor 350 transitions smoothly from highway adventures to urban commutes. The Meteor's Fireball variant is the essence of agility, perfect for those who appreciate a dash of newness in tradition. It features a minimalist colour palette and a striking blacked-out look, reminiscent of its predecessor, the Thunderbird 350 X.  The Meteor 350 offers a cruiser experience that’s accessible to a broad range of riders.


Both models come equipped with a Euro 5 compliant, 348cc single-cylinder engine, producing a maximum torque of 27Nm at 4000 rpm. They have a 5-speed gearbox, conventional wet clutch, and air/oil-cooled systems. Shared specifications aside, the frame construction with a twin downtube spine adds to the ruggedness of these motorcycles, making them reliable companions on any journey. Despite these similarities, the riding experience they offer diverges.

The Classic 350 is ideal for riders who cherish the nostalgia of classic, heritage style rides with an appreciation for detail-oriented craftsmanship. It allows one to enjoy the ride with a sense of timelessness and history under their control. Conversely, the Meteor 350 appeals to those who fancy a bit of both worlds—comfortable cruising with easeful city rides. It’s streamlined for daily use without sacrificing the allure of the occasional long ride, making it a versatile addition to any garage.

Considered together, both motorcycles are compelling choices, distinct yet sharing an underlying passion for design and engineering excellence from Royal Enfield. For those inclined towards a timeless aesthetic and enduring build, the Classic 350 will be their go-to. For riders seeking comfort, ease, and a cruiser spirit, the Meteor 350 might just be the perfect fit.
