The brand is further allowing the customers to customize their motorcycle with various seat designs, alloy wheel designs as well as a different set of decals for the fuel tank as well as multiple options for panniers customizations. The customizations with additional accessories are being provided to the customers with an additional warranty of two years.
Apart from the addition of a single-seat saddle, the Royal Enfield Classic 350 Single Seat variant remains mechanically unaltered.

The engine is mated to a 5-speed gearbox.
