One of the most anticipated motorcycles, the BS6 Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350X has been spotted several times testing on the Indian roads. The production version of the motorcycle is expected to hit the Indian market shortly. The recently spied test mule of the motorcycle gives a clear insight to the production-spec design of the motorcycle while at the same time features additional official accessories, which will be made available to the customers at the time of launch.

In addition to this, the spy shots also show the motorcycle with a single pod instrument panel as well as adjustable levers. The BS6 Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350X has been spotted with a tall windscreen at the front while the motorcycle features a black engine guard. The brand has equipped the cruiser bike with saddlebag mounts finished in chrome. The saddle mounts can be further used as saree guards while the brand is now offering round pillion and rider footpegs with the updated edition of the motorcycle.
