The motorcycle is powered by a 499cc, single cylinder fuel injected unit producing 27.2 Bhp and 41.4 Nm of torque. The engine comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox. It comes with matte black livery and feels premium when compared to standard Classic 500.

Royal Enfield is currently the sixth best selling brand of India, having no direct rival in its dominating territory. However, Bajaj Dominar 400 and Mahindra Mojo are two challenging products for Royal Enfield Classic series. 350cc Royal Enfield bikes have a huge market share when compared to 500cc options.
