Royal Enfield Hunter India Launch Date Announced
- The Royal Enfield Hunter 350 will go on sale in India this month.
- It will be powered by the same 350 cc engine seen in the Classic 350 and Meteor 350.
- It will be positioned below the Classic 350 and Meteor 350 in RE's range.
The Royal Enfield Hunter 350 is all set to hit the road this month and the company is gearing up to launch the its new motorcycle on August 07 in India. While its still early to make a final statement about Royal Enfield's latest offering, previous spy images suggest that the Hunter 350 will come in two distinct variants one with alloy wheels and an entry level model with wire-spoke wheels. The wire spoke wheel variant gets a simpler paint finish with a small Royal Enfield logo on the tank. The alloy-wheel model meanwhile gets bolder RE badging on the tank and in cursive format. The Hunter 350 badging is visible on the panel under the seat as well.

In terms of looks and styling, the upswept exhaust, front fork and engine are finished in black. The fuel tank while bearing the classic teardrop shape has a prominent flattened section from near the rider to the centre likely to enhance rider comfort and grip. Also, the single off-set dial on the handlebar with tripper navigation is quite apparent in the pictures.

While the specifications of the motorcycle are still to be officially revealed, according to previous news reports based on a type approval document, the bike will be the smallest and most compact model in Royal Enfield's range. It will be shorter than its 350cc siblings along with sitting on a shorter wheelbase as well as being lighter. The document reveals that the 350cc J-Series engine will power the new Hunter 350 and will belt out 20.2 bhp as it does in the Classic and Meteor, and 27 Nm of peak torque. The five-speed gearbox is also likely to be retained from the Classic 350 and the Meteor 350.
When launched, the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 will go up against the likes of the Honda CB 350 RS, Jawa 42 and TVS Ronin. Expect prices to begin around Rs. 1.70 lakh (ex-showroom) and it is likely to be positioned below the Classic 350 and Meteor 350.
I have been working as an Auto Journalist for last two years and after much exploration have finally found carandbike as my work home. I am someone who cannot form his memories without cars and bikes have always been a desirable object. All I want is to drive and experience every four-wheeler with a steering wheel and talk or write about it. If you want to see how wide my lips can spread, just get me behind the wheels of a fast car and make me drive across a winding section of the road. Probably the thing I’ll do with the last litre of fuel I could afford.
