    I bought my first Royal Enfield in 2021 with the purchase of an Interceptor 650. I have owned several modern triumphs and a few vintage triumphs. I absolutely love Royal Enfield's new bikes. To me, they are a call back to the vintage stuff but with modern EFI and ABS. My Interceptor impressed me so much as a fun bike to ride I bought a 2022 350 Classic. Those two bikes added together were less than my Bonnie Chopper and while they don't have that level of fit and finish (or power!) they are worth far more to me.

    I think RevZilla adding Jen to the mix is a great thing for motorcycling. Particularly having her be the face of most small displacement bike reviews. (Though I want to see her input on other bikes too) I just know a lot of smaller potential riders often feel intimidated and seem to think their size will be a major hurdle. Jen being physically smaller effortlessly throwing bikes around I hope will boost their confidence that they can do it too. Plus having some female representation on what’s likely to be one of the first bikes a woman might try researching, I imagine will add an extra layer on top of that.

    Hello, Hunter owner here. I think 70 MPH is a more realistic top speed, with 73 MPH with the wind in your sails (Sat' confirmed speed). That being said, with its long stroke, low revving engine, it will do 65 MPH comfortably all day long, & it makes quite light work of those hills too. I've done fuel economy calculations, & the Hunter will do around 80 MPG (imperial) flat out, & over 100 MPG if you drop the speed down a little, or just potter around. Not a bike to buy if you want to get the adrenaline rushing, but as a general run around I've found it an excellent machine, & for the price point, I'm very happy with the purchase. Thanks for a great review Jen.

    As a beginner, I was looking for a entry level motorcycle with dual channel ABS, unfortunately most entry level motorcycles have single channel ABS in India. As this bike looked good, did not have scary power and compact with not too high seat height, I bought this and learnt on this from scratch. It is a very forgiving bike with good torque and you dont have to worry too much about gear changes. Every thing is good about this bike, 1000 km done till now.

    Great review, agree on your points! It's my commuting bike, a replacement for my scooter, 1000 miles on it so far this dpring. It looks great and kinda beefy in person, unlike a 125 or even most 250cc bikes, it looks propper. Sounds brilliant and it's super accessible and agile around town, the garage, shops, twisty backroads... Fuel efficiency is comically good. Top speed is around 70, but I take just the car if I plan to ride at that speed...

The hunter 350 seat is about 3 to 4 inchest narrower at the tank making life much more comfortable at stops and backig up. Im so happy I picked the hunter. Great handling and mileage. Nice factory exhaust note. Very comfortable. It can do 75 at half throttle. Easy maintenance.

It seems that motorcycles in India are limited to 80kph (49mph) even on expressways where cars are going 120kph (75mph). Motorcycles that can easily cope with US speeds are deemed overpowered and overly expensive in Royal Enfield's home market. Nevertheless, we can hope that they get us something with around 30hp or hopefully a bit more.

But I'm the type of person who takes style into consideration. And the RE is no doubt more the style I prefer. If the Honda had the tear drop tank and a more vintage look I might have gone with that. You just can't beat this RE styling. Whoever designed this bike hit it out of the ball park.

I have watched many reviews of small CC motorcycle. What the manufacture claims for top speed and reality are many time two different things. If your in a bad situation on the highway or nonhighway roads you need to power to get out of that situation. This bike does not have that power to do so.

    unfortunately are the newest emission rules a bit tough on air-cooled singles.. 20.2 hp on the crank on a 350cc single a little low.. But since these biles are simply machines a lot of custom mods are being done in UK and USA firms on the enfield bikes... AN example is that TEC parts have another camshaft for the 411cc single in the scram 411 bumping power up from 24.3 bhp to 28.2 bhp.. Another camshaft is designed for the 350cc singles available from hictchcock motorcycles that promises more than 20% more power with slight mod to the airfilter and exhaust.. Even the enfield 650cc twin squeezed out more than 9% more horses at the rearwheel with a remap without any other mods.

    As a happy owner, I can tell you that if you need more power or to go faster, you'll need to buy a different bike. Mods will not significantly change what the Hunter is. It's a low reving air cooled city bike with fuel efficiency, affordability, reliability and robustness in mind. There are better road bikes like the honda 300 or even CFmoto if you want similar displacement but more power. Besides power, the Hunter has arguably low top speed (70 mph), weak breaks and so-so suspension. It's basically a massively overbuild 125cc more than a competition to other similar displacement bikes. And that's the beauty of it. Still it's the perfect bike for my European twisty roads and town commuting, for people in crowded metropolises etc...

    Their 650s handle highways fine, I wonder if they brought out these 350s to try to snag city riders and beginners. Either way, they look dope as hell

    I agree. A motorcycle really needs close to 30hp at the rear wheel to comfortably keep up with expressway traffic. My old Honda FT500 single had something like 28hp and was fine. Its strong low and mid-range torque made it seem faster than it really was, say, in comparison to a current Honda 300 which has about the same max power.

    @@jfess1911 Those FT500's are cool bikes despite what Fort9 says! I've never ridden a lower power bike on the highway, I live in a city and I don't like riding on the highway at all anyways, so I'd be just fine to poodle around at lower speeds in town anyways (especially on a naked bike)

    @Kingsoupturbo If you can easily avoid 65+mph traffic, these RE 350's would be great. Fort9 tested the v-twin version which was not nearly as light and nimble. The FT was a chain-drive single closely related to dual sports of the era and lighter than the FV500 or the RE 350's (only about 365lbs or 165kg). Ryan F9 is also taller than average, so his comments on ergonomics mean little to someone short like me. Pretty much any motorcycle that fits him will be uncomfortable to me. The FT500 fit me fine but would be cramped for him, for example.

    I like the speed 400 but I think it will start at £5500 here. That's going by dealer pages and comparing to the likes of the cb300r, duke,z400,cl500, BMW 310. I can't see it being any less than these bikes. The hunter starts at £3683 otr. I've no doubt the Triumph will be faster but the price difference is enough to make me consider the Hunter.

    Don't delude yourself with sll the praises you see on line regarding this bike. This Bike is not a highway crusier by any stretch of the imagination. While it can achieve 60 mph the motor sounds like it is straining. At 60mph the motor has very little reserve to carry you much faster. The bike is nimble however and makes for s nice city bike or leisurely backroads vehicle. Beware of the high cost of maintenance on this machine it will shock you... T
