Royal Enfield has been spotted testing two new motorcycles, the Shotgun 350 and the Classic 650, in India. The Shotgun 350 is a new bobber model, while the Classic 650 is more modern.
The Shotgun 350 is based on the Classic 350, but it has a more stripped-down look with whitewall tires, clear lens indicators, and Ape Hanger handlebars. The back seat is supported by side-mounted grab grips.
The Classic 650 is more of a modern classic. It has a more premium look than the Classic 350. It comes with wire spoke wheels and a good dose of chrome. It also gets a LED headlight unit, which is not offered in the Classic 350.
Both the Royal Enfield Shotgun 350 and the Classic 650 are expected to feature ABS and a semi-digital instrument cluster. The test bikes have traditional telescopic front forks and twin rear shocks, as well as a front and rear disc brake system with multi-channel ABS. Both versions have spoked wheels, but Royal Enfield is expected to offer alloy wheels as an extra.
Both bikes are expected to be powered by the same 648cc parallel-twin engine that powers the current Classic 650 and Interceptor 650. This engine produces a max power output of 47 HP and 52 Nm of peak torque. The Shotgun 350 is expected to be launched in India sometime in 2023, while the Classic 650 is expected to be launched in early 2025.
The pictures of the two bikes have been making rounds online, and they have generated a lot of excitement among Royal Enfield fans. The Shotgun 350 is a unique and stylish motorcycle, and it is sure to appeal to riders who are looking for a stripped-down bobber. The Classic 650 is a more traditional motorcycle, but it is still a stylish and modern bike.
We're delighted to see more of these two Royal Enfield motorcycles, and we're looking forward to their arrival in India. We hope to see all of Royal Enfield's future motorcycles at the EICMA event in November of this year.
