Royal Enfield Classic 350 2021 owns a new engine block based on the Meteor 350, the first J-platform engine from the Royal Enfield. Classic 350 is one of the best selling motorcycles from the premium automaker in Chennai and the 2021 model year. The new will significantly reduce the weight on the wheels.
According to previously leaked images, the new Classic 350 will be a new motorcycle inside and out, based on the Meteor 350's J platform, and also have some major updates in the form of a new chassis, clock control panel, and more. Additionally, the design has been heavily modified.
Royal Enfield Classic 350 2021 is powered by a single cylinder DOHC engine with a capacity of 349cc. However, official powertrain specifications have not been confirmed. The gearbox will likely remain the same 5-speed unit.
Another interesting change is that the chain drive is now on the left and the front disc has been moved to the right. It will likely be fitted with larger 300mm front discs and 270mm rear discs, combined with dual channel ABS. From the outside, the suspension looks similar to Meteor: 41mm telescopic forks, and dual shock absorbers at the rear.
The new Classic 350 will continue to compete with motorcycles like the Honda H'Ness CB350 and Jawa.
