Royal Enfield

Classic 350

Royal Enfield's Classic 350 is the most affordable new motorcycle from a major manufacturer at $4,599 — a 349cc single-cylinder with styling inspired by the 1949 Royal Enfield G model, designed for relaxed characterful riding rather than performance. The 20 hp engine is modest by any standard; buyers choose this bike for style and accessible price, not acceleration.

Known strengths

  • Authentic post-war British motorcycle styling at an entry-level price with modern fuel injection and standard ABS
  • Balancer-shaft 349cc single is smooth by single-cylinder standards and delivers ample torque under 65 mph
  • Extremely approachable for new riders with a low seat height and unintimidating 20 hp power output

Buying intel

Common issues

  • 20 hp is inadequate for sustained highway travel above 65 mph or two-up riding
  • 430 lb curb weight is heavy for a 349cc motorcycle, limiting off-road capability
