FEEL ROYAL. Review on Royal Enfield Classic 350

To be more specific, the Royal Enfield Classic carries the design of the early'40s of the past century, in a more enhanced manner. The body parts, while still resembling the original Bullets, are still in symphony with the overall stance. The chrome finished rounded headlight in front along with body colored suspension bits and front mudguard clearly signify you that this motorcycle is down to its business off being a retro machine. The fuel tank is rounded and gels well with the overall design. The rear and side body panels are minimalistic with battery covers finished in body color. The rear sports a tail light and the licence plate fitted together in a single black unit. The instrument console follows a simplistic approach with an analog speedometer, odometer and battery indicator. Seating option of a single as well as double seats are given for the individuality of rider. The absence of fuel gauge reminds you back to its old-gold appeal, but then, it should have been given for modern day functionality. The bulid and fit and finish is average with few niggles here and there. The ride quality of Royal Enfields have always been outstanding, with the Classic 350 taking the benchmark even higher. The suspension setup of front telescopic forks and rear gas charged shocks may seem too simple and dated, but it does work wonders on this motorcycle. The Classic 350 takes all the bumps and potholes with ease. And being a bulky motorcycle, the handling of this motorcycle is pretty good. The brakes, front disc and rear drum, though lack bite, and feel rubbery at times. Overall, this motorcycle is an ideal tool for long highway cruising, while city commuting takes a bit more sweat out your glands due to its weight.
