2025 Royal Enfield Hunter 350 – What’s New?
For 2025, the Hunter 350 receives new features, revised underpinnings, and a fresh colour scheme. Here are the details: –
- One of the most crucial updates for the 2025 Hunter 350 is the revision to its rear twin-shock absorber, as the outgoing setup was a bit stiff, especially on rough and bumpy surfaces. The updated suspension setup is claimed to offer a more comfortable riding experience.
- With the new rear suspension unit, the ground clearance of the bike has also been increased by 10mm to 160mm.
- The brand has also reprofiled the handlebar after feedback from users who found the previous setup too forward-biased, forcing them to stretch their arms uncomfortably.
- The seat cushioning has also been updated with a more comfortable material.
- The Dapper and Rebel variants also get an LED headlamp for improved illumination during nighttime and a slip-and-assist clutch to reduce clutch lever effort and prevent rear wheel lock-up during aggressive downshifting, making rides smoother and safer.
- To complement the updates, RE has also introduced three new colour options for the 2025 Hunter 350: Rio White, Tokyo Black and London Red. It also receives refreshed graphics and rim decals for added appeal.
- Lastly, Royal Enfield has also made its 349cc, single-cylinder engine OBD-2B compliant. However, it continues to produce 20.2PS of max power and 27Nm of peak torque and comes paired to a 5-speed gearbox.

Author’s Take
The updated Hunter 350 fixes its biggest issue since launch — the uncomfortable ride. Instead of just tweaking the rear suspension, Royal Enfield made proper changes by updating the handlebar and seat too. The addition of an LED headlight and new colours also freshens things up. Despite the price hike, the Hunter remains the most affordable Royal Enfield on sale. And while it’s the entry-level model, it’s clear RE treats it seriously, knowing it can attract new riders to the brand’s lifestyle. We’ll share more once we ride it.
