The 2022 Royal Enfield Classic 350 we told you about back in September is confirmed as a US model. The vertical-single motor, peashooter muffler, twin shocks, valanced headlight, and solo seat give the motorcycle an undeniably retro feel, even as it delivers modern accouterments such as EFI and ABS-assisted disc brakes. The Classic 350 is the second modern 350 from Royal Enfield, with the Meteor debuting last year.
The studio photos of the Classic 350 give you an idea of what you’ll be seeing at your local Royal Enfield dealer, while the action photos show accessory examples featuring Royal Enfield Genuine Motorcycle Accessories. Eventually, there will be nine colors available, split into three lines—Halcyon ($4499), Dark ($4599), Signals ($4599), and Chrome ($4699).
“Throughout our history, we have been consistent in our pursuit to build timeless, beautiful motorcycles that are great fun to ride,” Managing Director of Eicher Motors Ltd. Siddhartha Lal notes, “and the new Classic 350 does just that. The all-new Classic 350 combines this quintessential, retro design with a modern and refined ride experience. We are confident that the all-new Classic 350 will once again redefine the midsize motorcycle space, globally.”
The initial shipment arriving in the United States is comprised of the mid-priced Dark and Signals lines. The Indian-military-inspired Signals line stands out thanks to period-appropriate wire-spoked wheels, while other Classic 350s have 10-spoke aluminum wheels.
