The instrument console of the next-gen RE Classic 350 also gets the brand’s Bluetooth navigation system known as ‘Tripper Navigation’. After the Meteor 350 and Himalayan 411, the 2021 Classic 350 would be the third motorcycle under the brand’s portfolio to get this navigation feature.
In terms of pricing, the motorcycle is expected to launch with an ex-showroom price tag of around INR 1.80 lakhs for the base model. As we reported earlier, the MY2021 will be available in a total of 6 shades. Talking about the looks, the fuel tank is camouflaged in the new photos but we know that it is almost similar in design to the current-gen model, with flat Royal Enfield stickers.
The biggest change here is visible on the engine, with an all-new design and compact placement of the components, which have been further borrowed from the Meteor 350. The next-gen model of the Royal Enfield Classic 350 features a different rear seat design, a practical grab rail, and a new tail-light setup.
Mechanically, the 2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350 will come powered by the Meteor 350’s air-cooled 349cc engine, which is good for a maximum power of 20.2 HP along with a peak torque of 27 Nm. The engine will remain mated to a 5-speed transmission.
Once launched, the new-gen Classic 350 would be competing with the likes of Jawa Classic 300, Mahindra Mojo 300, Honda Highness CB350, Benelli Imperiale 400, and the Bajaj Dominar 400.
