What does the Goan Classic 350’s price point do to its value proposition in comparison to other Royal Enfield models?

At a higher price than the standard Classic 350, the introduction of the Goan Classic 350 begs the question, is it worth it? It has features such as tubeless spoke wheels, ape hanger handlebars, and its own unique styling, but some say there's no way the price increase is justified. Some view it as a premium offering that gets you a factory custom look without having to go aftermarket. And this pricing strategy also plays into the Goan Classic's positioning vs other Royal Enfield models and might overlap with higher displacement options such as the Meteor or even the 650 twins. It’s also debated whether this model is aimed at a specific niche of buyers who are prepared to pay that bit more for style and exclusivity or whether it risks cannibalization from the other RE models. Further, the impact of this pricing on Royal Enfield's wider brand positioning is also discussed, including if this is the start of a charge towards more premium range going forward.
