Is the Royal Enfield Classic 350 Bobber a real bobber or just a cosmetic makeover?

It's not bad for a factory bike. This is a nice entry point for most people who aren’t going to build a bobber from scratch.

RE is trying to do something different and I appreciate that but they could’ve taken the design further and really hit that bobber vibe.

It’s a great place to begin customization. Get this then mod it further to make it more of an authentic bobber.

Let’s be real here, RE is trying to get in on the bobber trend without fully committing to the style.

It’s nice to have the lower seat height but those handlebars look like they’re going to be uncomfortable on longer rides.

I rode both, and the Bobber has a more laid back feeling. It's not a dramatically different change, but you can feel it.

It's not that the riding position is different at all. It’s really about looks not ergonomic changes.

I actually like the more upright position of the standard Classic as someone with back issues. I think the Bobber is a little too hunched.

Cruising around with the Bobber gives it a cooler vibe, but I’d stick with the Classic for daily commuting.

I believe that RE found the right balance. It's special enough without being impractical.

The low seat height only really complaints shorter riders have though, tall folks will feel a little cramped on the Bobber.
Is the Classic 350 a good two up ride?
09 January 2025 09:20
Good for two-up riding, not great. It is a bit small and firm on the passenger seat. For short trips around town, fine, but I wouldn't want to do an extended tour with a passenger.

My girlfriend and I both ride regularly and we’re both comfortable. The trick is to set the rear suspension for the extra weight. Once that’s done, it works pretty well.

You definitely feel the extra weight power wise. Overtaking is a struggle and more planning is needed. It's fine for cruising around, however.

I added a backrest for my pillion and that made all the difference in the world. My wife actually likes to come for rides now instead of just putting up with it.

I feel the Classic is actually better for two up riding than my friends Meteor 350. It seems that the seating position of a passenger is more natural.

09 January 2025 09:20
It's okay, but not ideal. If you’re going to be doing a lot of two-up riding, the Interceptor 650 will probably be better suited to your needs, with a bit more power.

09 January 2025 09:20
I think it’s great for two up riding around the city. Even with a passenger, it’s narrow enough to still filter through traffic. Just keep in mind that the acceleration is reduced.
Is the Royal Enfield Classic 350 really a highway friendly bike?
09 January 2025 09:20
I've been on highways on my Classic 350 enough. It definitely won’t be winning any races, but it cruises along nicely at 60 – 65 mph. You just need to set your expectations right – it’s not a sport bike, it’s a relaxed cruiser.
Is the Royal Enfield Classic 350 really a highway friendly bike?
09 January 2025 09:20
There's no way I'd take this on a highway regularly. It's around 70 mph top end and takes forever to get there. Fine for short stretches, but how about for daily highway commuting? Hard pass.
