Royal Enfield is gearing up to launch a slew of new motorcycles in 2023, including a new Himalayan 450 and a new generation Bullet 350. The 350-450cc entry-level middleweight segment has become increasingly competitive in recent years. And with the arrival of new models such as the Triumph Speed 400 and Harley-Davidson X440, it is even more heated right now. Royal Enfield is looking to add to this segment with its own new motorcycles.

The Chennai-based manufacturer is also developing a new range of 450cc motorcycles. They are expected to be more powerful and feature-rich than the current 350cc models. These motorcycles are likely to be aimed at the export market. Royal Enfield is also working on a new 750cc motorcycle, which is expected to be a more premium offering than the current 650cc models. This motorcycle is likely to be launched in India in 2023.

Royal Enfield is also developing electric motorcycles. They have already launched the Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 electric concepts. These are expected to launch production models in the near future.

Royal Enfield Himalayan 450

The Himalayan 450 is the most anticipated motorcycle from Royal Enfield in 2023. The motorcycle has been spotted for some time now, and it is expected to be launched in India soon. The Himalayan 450 will be the first Royal Enfield to feature a liquid-cooled engine. It will be powered by a new 450cc single-cylinder engine. It is expected to produce around 40 bhp of power with a six-speed transmission.

The Himalayan 450 will be a more premium and feature-rich motorcycle than the existing Himalayan 411. These features are expected to include dual-channel ABS, all LED lighting, USD front forks, and an offset monoshock rear suspension. The Himalayan 450 will also sit on a new platform. This platform is expected to be shared with other upcoming Royal Enfield motorcycles, such as the 450cc roadster and the 650cc cruiser.

The launch of the Himalayan 450 is a significant development for Royal Enfield. The motorcycle is expected to help the company expand its presence in the premium adventure touring segment. The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is expected to be released in India in the next 2-3 months. The motorcycle will be pitched directly against the KTM 390 Adventure, and it is likely to be priced at around Rs 2.5 lakh (ex-showroom).

New Generation Bullet 350

The new generation Royal Enfield Bullet 350 is also expected to be launched in India later this year. The motorcycle has been spotted testing multiple times, and it is said to have a lot in common with the latest Classic 350. The new Bullet 350 will share the platform, mechanical bits, and the SOHC air- and oil-cooled engine with the Classic 350. It is also expected to have a similar design, with some minor changes.

In addition to the Bullet 350, Royal Enfield is also working on a single-seater version of the Classic. This motorcycle is expected to be introduced before the end of this year. The launch of the new Bullet 350 is a significant development for Royal Enfield. The motorcycle is expected to help the company revitalize its iconic Bullet brand.

Can I Ride Royal Enfield Classic 350 Daily 100 Kilometres?
2023-09-13 04:19:13 AM

Yes, the Royal Enfield Classic 350 is a comfortable cruiser and also, and the seat itself is also shaped differently: it’s not sprung and the foam is firmer. This makes the riding position actually a lot more comfortable now. Pillions will appreciate the comfortable and spacious rear seat too, which comes as standard. It’s soft enough, but not so soft that you sink into it and your backside starts complaining.

Which is better, the Royal Enfield Classic 350 or the Meteor 350?
2023-09-13 04:17:45 AM

Royal Enfield Classic 350 is a great bike in fact that RE engineers and designers have maintained the charming DNA of its predecessor but without the niggles. It was very easy for the brand to overdo the iconic Classic 350, but they have managed to find the right balance and the updates have been done only where required. On the other hand, the new J Platform motor is a clear step change from the UCE, making the Meteor 350 a far more well-rounded motorcycle than any of the previous 350s. It’s not just the engine, the gearbox feels more grown up too and the bike handles itself and its weight rather well.

What about the design of the Royal Enfield Classic 350?
2023-09-13 04:13:33 AM

Royal Enfield Classic 350 looks quite similar to its previous generations, still feeling fresher through its minor design tweaks. It keeps the classic aesthetic with slight stylistic modifications but also has current technology. The headlight features a clear lens with a reworked casing. On a closer look, one can clearly notice that its tank, fenders, and even side panels are redesigned.
