Has its fair share of problems. Do I regret buying this bike? not even a bit.
Pros
-extremely comfortable.
-adequate power( the streets are not meant for racing) .
-has good road presence.
-sounds amazing( recommend you not to change the silencer as it will become irritating as years pass) .
-got a fuel gauge and rev meter( unlike the classic which is missing both) .
-the backseat is the best place to be in.
-the bike is modifiable you can get custom lights, handlebars, leg guards, seats and you name it you can unrecognisable.
-the bikes got a character, no 2 royal enfield will feel the same ( as I said you can change the bike to something totally different) .
-is not made out of plastic.
Cons
-the 350cc engine with a 5 speed gearbox could have got taller ratios or a 6th gear.
-vibrations take a toll after the 100 mark.
-needs constant repairs and care taking.
-always lived with a fear of something going wrong( whenever on a tour) .
-the gearbox is so heavy everyone on the street will know you are changing gear.
-heavy( 190kgs) .
-this has read disks and no tubeless tyres that becomes a problem as they have to remove the disk then the whole tyres to fix a simple puncher.
-fuel economy is not what one would call great.
-you cannot corner confidently like a sports bike( you will scrape off the foot rests which are dead expensive)
Would I recommend this bike for everyone definitely no. Depends on what type of bike you want. You want something fast like a duke but don’t want to buy duke do not buy for royal enfields and be disappointed . You love cursing for 300-400 kms you are looking at your new new bike.
