Royal Enfield Bullet 350 to make a comeback; launch on 1 Sept
Royal Enfield is all set to launch the new generation Bullet 350 in India on 1 September, 2023. The iconic motorcycle will receive a comprehensive update with a new platform and an upgraded engine, similar to its modern siblings, such as the new Classic 350. The legendary bike maker will position the new Bullet 350 between the Hunter 350 and Classic 350 when it comes to price, which is expected to be higher compared to the current model.

The engine is likely to have a similar tuning as the Classic 350, producing 20.2PS of power and 27Nm of torque. It will be paired with a five-speed gearbox.

New Royal Enfield Bullet 350: Chassis and Design
The chassis of the new Bullet 350 will be derived from the Classic 350, which adopted a new twin-downtube chassis with a steel spine configuration. In terms of design, the new Bullet 350 is expected to retain its classic appeal with a possibly redesigned teardrop-style fuel tank, circular LED headlight, round indicators, and taillight.
