Don’t need a 4th bike but i want it.

After 52 years riding I researched this bike over a 2 month period, I have a Royal Enfield dealer 11 miles from where I live, went to have a look at a Classic 350. They only had one in stock, my favourite colour the British Racing Green, so instant decision I bought it and picked it up 4 days later. I had heard the gear leaver was a bit low and asked the mechanic if he could raise it for me, he smiled and said already done that already as they are always low and only need raising one notch on the spline. I wear Forma boots and have never had a problem changing gear on the very smooth gear box. In all this is an amazing bike that for me ticks all the boxes, my days of flying around the roads at full speed, instead I now enjoy the ride.

Great vid! Happy to say that here in the USA, we just bought three of these! I'm 61, and have been riding for over 50 years. This is the smallest bike (engine wise) I've owned in over 30 years, and it's the most fun I've had since my first ride! I got one for me and my son, and his girlfriend's father as well. No matter where we go or what we're doing, we get stopped and asked about them. I'm also a big guy - 6'-4", 230 lbs. It's 100% comfortable - after I moved the bars back slightly and changed the gear shifter up one-notch. Perfection, even with the wife on the back. If you're considering one, go have a look (and test ride if possible). I don't think you'll regret it and I'm guessing you're going to love it! Ride safe all!

I'm soon to be the owner of a classic 350. I test ride the entire Royal Enfield fleet before making my decision. The reason I did so was because they're all so affordable, so I wanted to pick the right one for me. The Classic ticked all of the boxes just a little bit more than the rest of them. Which funnily enough ticked all the boxes as well. The weird thing I found was if you try and ride it like a motorbike you'll feel disappointed at the lack of power, but if you ride it like a Royal Enfield and short shift up the box using the low end torque then it begins to make sense.

I bought a Classic 350 last month and I watched your video with great interest. You did a good job in your review. I’ve been riding motorcycles for 65 years now - yes a long time - and I’m at the stage where I ride to enjoy the scenery (I live in Devon) and the bike. This motorcycle is a delight to ride and own.

I've had mine for about a month now and just hit 500 miles and the engine is just starting to open up a bit, feels great, very comfortable. I understand the engine will really open up at about 1000 to 1200 miles, until then I'll take it easy. So far, I have no complaints.

With the ever increasing price of fuel these days……still may yet reach the thick end of £2/litre within the near future, bikes like this little beauty are coming into their own for people of modest means such as myself. RE are onto a winner with this package I feel. A bike that is sensibly priced & looks good. Will be frugal to run & insure, practical and most importantly put a smile on your face (how it makes you feel) when you’re out riding on it; the essence of motorcycling for me. My OCD would likely be on overdrive trying to keep that chrome tip top. Great review as always Guys…best wishes 👍

You are the first person to mention the brake pedal position. Fortunately it is adjustable. I did mine. I also added the heel and toe shifter as the domestic Indian market bikes are equipped. No need to hook your toe under the shifter.

Totally agree with your review including the gearchange position. After 52 years of motorcycling I was so impressed with the bike. Initially I was a bit disappointed with the brakes but after 140 miles they have bedded in and are really effective. Thanks for the review.

Just bought one, pick it up next week. This will be my main bike and will be just the job for pottering to work, out round the lanes and for long tours. I’ve done rushing about and I’m really looking forward to a gentler way of motoring.

This bike looks gorgeous especially in personal. The rides so comfortable and easy to maneuver. So fun for daily commuting and touring. Yes no vibrations whatsoever. Plus the lovely thumping of engine and bass of pipes. So soothing to the heart and ears. What a lovely and relaxing feeling every-time I ride this Royal Enfield Classic 350! I bought my Royal Enfield Classic 350CC at Cebu City Philippines Gorordo Branch.l last March 7, 2024. I am so in-love of this bike! AWESOME BIKE!

I want one just to look at it. Style is timeless.

Look around this bike and the meteor- the attention to detail is quite impressive. Great design and quality materialsI. So nice to buy an own an inexpensive bike that looks expensive. Not to mention it’s so fun to ride and very comfortable. Cheers mate! Allan USA ca

I test rode one recently. Super comfortable and lovely around town or lanes. I did find it too underpowered for faster roads though. Great review!

Royal Enfield are doing sooooo much right with their range. The re-released Bullet 500 is actually the bike that got me back into motorcycling in 2013 but I couldn't afford one so got a used XV535 instead (which I absolutely love and had customised recently) RE's are great looking machines and everything you really need from a motorcycle and not much else, which is positively refreshing in an increasingly computerised world. Not that there's anything wrong with gadgets lol. The new Scram 411 is also just a bleddy stunning, well designed and fun looking bike. Hope you do a vid on that one soon! 😉🙏 Hmmmmm I think the bike shopping list just got longer....aagaainnnn! 😆❣😁✌ Cheers guys, another great vid xx

You can adjust the gear lever up or down on the splines of the output shaft in a few minutes with a spanner. I think they set the lever quite low as many people in India ride them with sandals on.

The chromed plastic bits around the speedo are hideous. Why couldn't they have used real metal?

I have no idea how the heck they sell the bike for $5K USD, pay the Dealers profit and survive. Love to see their Balance Sheet. I guess that's why it is built in India to achieve those Sales Prices. US Market can easily absorb a 15% higher MSRP and it would still sell.

@@petejones1957 That little bit in torque and grunt in higher speeds makes the bike more versatile to all user cases. Now it seems that development has happened, but not enough. Full potential has not been reached. 350cc has always been the India market bike, 500cc for exports and enthuasists. Many may like 350 like you but many will leave it in the store too. I wish RE serves customers with enlarging displacement, otherwise bike is perfect.😌
