The new Classic 350, has just been launched in the country at a starting price of Rs. 1.84 lakh, ex-showroom, retains the old-school character that is generally associated with Royal Enfield motorcycles. It is built on an all-new platform, sharing the J-series 350 cc engine with the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and the same dual-cradle chassis. But it now features a new double downtube unit, similar to the Meteor 350 and has updated front forks, that use 41 mm units.
At 170 mm, the Classic 350 also gets a fairly substantial ground clearance. About the brakes, the front rotor is a 300 mm unit, while the rear disc measures 270 mm. The dual-disc variants come with dual-channel ABS, while the single-channel ABS functionality offers a drum at the rear-end. The 19-inch front and 18-inch wheels are thicker too, shod with fatter rubber, with a 100 mm front section tyre, and 120 mm section rear tyre.
