Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350 Updates

Friday, 29 September 2023 10:20 AM

 Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350 has been discontinued. The last model for Thunderbird was 2019.

Wednesday, 15 January 2020 07:48 AM The 2020 Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350 was launched in January, complying with the stricter BS6 emission norms. This update included a new engine layout, a double-cradle chassis, and a more compact exhaust. The bike also features a slightly more cruiser-style riding position with footpegs positioned further ahead. I think these changes make the Thunderbird 350 more appealing to those looking for a classic cruiser with modern compliance.

Wednesday, 15 January 2020 10:31 AM Royal Enfield introduced the Thunderbird X, a more youth-centric design of the Thunderbird 350, alongside the BS6 compliant model. The Thunderbird X is designed to attract a younger audience with its sleeker and more modern aesthetics. I believe this move is a great way for Royal Enfield to expand its market reach.

Wednesday, 15 January 2020 02:34 PM The 2020 Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350 saw a significant price increase due to the extensive updates and compliance with BS6 norms. The new bike is priced around Rs 1.87 lakhs, which is about Rs 40,000 more than the previous model. I think this price hike reflects the substantial improvements and research invested in the vehicle.

Wednesday, 15 January 2020 05:45 PM The Thunderbird 350 retains its classic colors such as Roving Red, Getaway Orange, and Drifter Blue, among others, despite the updates. The bike also features a lot of chrome bits, maintaining its traditional appeal. I believe this decision helps in keeping the bikes identity intact while still offering modern features.

Wednesday, 15 January 2020 05:43 AM Royal Enfield has continued to focus on the cruiser appeal of the Thunderbird 350, with the 2020 model featuring an air-cooled, single-cylinder, 4-stroke engine with twin sparkplugs. This engine produces 20.07 PS of power and 28 Nm of torque. I think this engine configuration strikes a good balance between performance and efficiency.
