Royal Enfield has revealed the India launch date of the all-new Bullet 350. The motorcycle is scheduled to be launched on 1 September.
The brand revealed the date through a video that focuses on the legacy of the thump while giving us glimpses of the upcoming Bullet 350. As previous spy images revealed, the new Royal Enfield Bullet 350 retains the styling of the current model but with slight tweaks. For instance, it receives a circular LED tail lamp similar to the Classic 350. The single-piece seat with grabrail is the same too. What is particularly interesting is the badging on the fuel tank. Not only does it have a 3D effect, but the logo comes with a crown on the Royal Enfield branding that adds retro-ness.
Now, the Royal Enfield Bullet 350 is based on the J-platform that it shares with the Meteor and Classic 350. This brings about a 348cc engine that has been tweaked for better refinement and NVH levels overall. The motor will churn out 20.2bhp and 27Nm and come mated to a five-speed gearbox. Hardware like suspension and braking will also be shared between the Classic 350 and Bullet 350. As for features, the new Bullet 350 would come with a relatively simpler list. We can expect an analogue cluster with a small digital screen, However, it is likely to miss out on Tripper Navigation as standard.
When it comes to pricing, the new Royal Enfield Bullet 350 is expected to demand a price tag higher than the current model which starts from Rs 1.50 lakh. With the changes it receives, the Bullet is expected to come with a starting price of around Rs 1.65 lakh, ex-showroom.
