How does the Bullet 350 ES fare as a long distance touring bike compared to the modern bikes?
India has seen a rising popularity of long distance motorcycle touring, and riders are looking for bikes that can take them there comfortably and reliably. For such trips, the classic looking and reputedly durable Royal Enfield Bullet 350 ES is often the choice. The appeal was lost however due to the competition of much moderner motorcycles that con only boast better fuel efficiency, more advanced suspension systems, and ergonomically designed for touring. Debates about the Bullet 350 ES's suitability for long rides versus long tour have since ensued among riders, with some arguing it's the classic charm and simplicity that make it a viable long ride option, while others saying the lack of modern amenities and lower highway speeds will make it a non starter compared to newer models.
And, believe me, I have done 1000km trip on Bullet 350 ES and it was surprisingly comfortable. The torquey engine and upright seating position means that it’s good for cruising. No, sure it's not the fastest but it's got character!
