Royal Enfield is winning hearts all over India with its Classic series. The best seller from the company’s lineup, Classic 350 recently sold a total of 39,391 units in January 2017 while the full Pulsar lineup in competition (RS200, AS200, AS150, 220F, 180, 150 and 135 LS) sold just 36,456 units. The motorcycle is actually more expensive than any of the Pulsar and its surge in demand can be seen from the sales chart of last few months.
Even after many riders admit that Royal Enfield bikes have some built quality issues, the high sales number shows the strict fan following for the motorcycle brand. Bajaj Pulsar is one of the most selling sport bike series of India while Classic 350 overtook the Bullet 350 as the most selling retro modern machine in India. Bajaj Auto seems experimenting with the Pulsar series as they recently updated the lineup with new shades and BS4 compliant engines.
