As the name suggests, the base-spec Hunter 350 Retro variant carries the evocative theme of Royal Enfield, with all the old-school bits such as 17-inch spoke wheels with a 300mm front disc and a 153mm drum brake at the rear, conventional bulb-type tail lamp, rectangular turn indicators from Himalayan, Classic-style switchgear with a simple instrument cluster, single-piece seat, and the irony grab rail.
