I'm using a classic 350 for around two years and have ridden it around 25000km.so I guess I can review this motorcycle fairly.
Buying Experience:
I have already done the research about the bike and I had decided to buy the classic 350.At their kandivali showroom, sales guys did their job clearing the doubts I had.they were hard selling the louder exhaust though.i booked my bike and I had to wait for 10 months to get the bike.Waited another month for the registration get done.
Riding Experience:
I like riding this bike a lot.before this I had a Yamaha gladiator.I still do.i felt this bike is a powerfull bike but that was only a comparison with the yamaha gladiator.But as I clocked more and more miles this bike is sluggish and little poor performance.there are some royal enfiel owners are there who do not expect the power of the bike.but I need initial speed.when I try to overtake any bike it takes some time to gain speed.iI need a race machine.I have taken the bike till 110km/hr but the bike starts vibrating.so you will get tired on ridig.Actually nothing on this bike is rubber mounted.so vibation is more.so not comfortable for longer ride.
Servicing and Maintenance:
The royal enfield showrooms near my place are very bad servicing.in both the showrooms.but I cannot say that the situation will be same for all the showrooms
Pros and Cons of Classic 350:
1.Stylish, Retro design, amazing paint job.
2.Fuel economy
3.The riding position is uprigt, the sitting position is comfortable, but vibration is the problem.
