With the beginning of the new year, the cult bikemaker Royal Enfield has revised the prices of Bullet, Classic, and Himalayan series of motorcycles along with the newly launched Meteor 350. Earlier, we have posted the new price list of Meteor 350. In this article, we will discuss the updated rates of RE's most popular Classic 350 motorcycle: –

*All prices, ex-showroom Delhi.
As the above table indicates, the magnitude of the price hikes ranges around Rs 2,000, which is approximately Rs 1,000 less than the Meteor 350's hike. Now, its entry-level single-channel ABS variant costs Rs 1.63 lakh, whereas the top-end dual-channel ABS trim with Stealth Black & Chrome Black color schemes is priced at Rs 1.88 lakh. Compared to its core rivals, the Classic 350 is still more affordable than the Jawa Classic (Rs 1.74 – 1.83 lakh) and Benelli Imperiale 400 (Rs 1.99 – 2.10 lakh). It also gets a wide range of premium color schemes.
Besides the Meteor and Classic 350, Royal Enfield has also increased the prices of Bullet 350 & Himalayan adventure tourer motorcycle. As per the brand's online configurator, both on-road prices of both the bikes have gone up by up to Rs 697, which certainly suggests that the rise in their ex-showroom prices is negligible. We will soon update the ex-showroom prices of both these models. As of now, we are only mentioning their on-road price range: –

RE Bullet 350 (Kick start) | Rs 1,45,977 – 1,52,702 | Rs 1,46,624 – 1,53,341 | Rs 639 – 697 |
