Don't bet on it. This might be an excuse for RE to jack up parts prices. People will pay for the brand – they know.

It might be cheaper to maintain, but I bet insurance will be about the same as the 350. It may not save you all that much.

The real question is: reliability. Maintenance costs don't really matter because if you build it well, it's going to break down less.

I hope this is an opportunity for them to bring in new technology that will actually reduce long term maintenance costs.
Will the Royal Enfield Classic 250 sound the same iconic 'thump' as the larger brothers?

There's no way it'll have the same thump. That s not how physics works. It'll probably sound more like a sewing machine' she says.

RE engineers aren't dumb. I'm sure they've put in a ton of work to get as close to the classic thump as possible.

That thump could be different, and that might be a good thing. It may have its own thing that people will be into.

I'm concerned that they’ll overdo it with the thump, and come up with something that sounds fake. It’s better to allow it to have its own voice.
What will the Royal Enfield Classic 250 mean for the custom scene?

This could really be huge for the custom scene. A cheaper base bike makes it possible for more people to be able to customize. There will be tons of wild Classic 250 builds.
What will the Royal Enfield Classic 250 mean for the custom scene?

I doubt it. What real custom builders want is more power to work with. That means that the 250 will be considered a beginner's bike, not a serious custom platform.

In fact, it might actually propel customization in new directions. If it were about aesthetics and practicality instead of power, builders would be free to get creative.

It'll most likely split the custom scene. There will be purists who stick to the bigger bikes, and a new wave of 250 adoptions for budget builds.

Learners who want to get into bike customization will love this. Begin with small projects, learn the ropes, and then move up to bigger projects.
Is the Royal Enfield Classic 250 a cash grab or a real innovation?
09 January 2025 09:11
It's definitely a cash grab. At this point RE is just milking the Classic name. They already have the Hunter and Bullet in the lower cc range. What's next, a Classic 150?
Is the Royal Enfield Classic 250 a cash grab or a real innovation?
09 January 2025 09:11
I disagree. In India, the 250cc segment actually is a pretty popular segment and RE was missing out on that. For those new riders who find the 350 too intimidating, this could be a great entry point.
