    Royal Enfield Hunter 350 arrives in 2 variants, Retro and Metro, and the Metro is further split into Metro Dapper & Metro Rebel.

    In terms of design, the Hunter 350 has a neo-retro design, and it introduces a new style to the Royal Enfield line up while retaining the brand's DNA. The design varies between the two variants of the Hunter 350, and to add to that both the variants get a list of different colours and liveries, taking the total number of combinations up to 23. The Metro gets an LED tail lamp and circular turn indicators, while the Retro gets rectangular turn indicators and a halogen tail lamp. Both the variants get halogen headlamps only, while LED turn indicators are available as an accessory. The motorcycle has a single piece seat, and while the Retro gets a traditional looking tubular grab rail at the back, the Metro gets modern looking split grab rails. The motorcycle is blacked out apart from the coloured panels, and there's a striking absence of chrome.

    The Hunter 350 Metro gets split grab rails and LED tail light paired with circular turn indicators.

    Powering the motorcycle is a familiar 349 cc single-cylinder J-series engine, which is also at the heart of the Classic 350 & the Meteor 350. The long-stroke engine puts out 20.2 bhp at 6,100 rpm and 27 Nm torque at 4,000 rpm. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 5-speed transmission. The engine has a redline of 7,000 rpm, and can push the Hunter 350 to a claimed top speed of 114 kmph. The Hunter 350 has a kerb weight of 181 kgs, which makes it 14 kilograms lighter than the Classic 350.

    The Hunter 350 gets an offset part digital circular speedometer, but its different on the two variants, with the Metro getting a larger digital insert than the Retro. The Metro gets a tripper navigation pod as an optional accessory, which is the same unit as seen on other Royal Enfields. The Metro gets dual-disc brakes and dual-channel ABS, while the Retro gets only a drum brake at the back and a single-channel ABS system. The Retro rides on spoked wheels, while the Metro gets blacked out alloy wheels.

    Priced between Rs. 1.50 Lakh & Rs. 1.69 Lakh, the Hunter 350 goes on against the likes of TVS Ronin, Java 42 and the Honda CB 350 RS, and offers people upgrading from a commuter motorcycle an appropriate entry point in the middle weight motorcycle segment.
