          Pros & Cons

          • Pros
          • Cons
          • Royal Enfield Classic 350

            • Comfortable ergonomics with an upright riding position
            • Timeless looks with retro styling that turns heads
            • Balanced chassis makes it easier to ride in traffic

            Jawa 42

            • Motor feels a lot more usable, with the torque spread evenly across the rev range. This helps in riding at moderate speeds at a gear higher, which wasn’t possible earlier
            • Improved overall quality, with good attention-to-detail elements like logo on the rim stickers
            • Is one of the lightest in segment, so moving around in traffic of tight parking spaces is easy
          • Royal Enfield Classic 350

            • Performance could have been better
            • The exhaust note is a bit mellow for fans of the thumpy sound of earlier Royal Enfields
            • The engine can get vibey at high speeds

            Jawa 42

            • The wide, low handlebars along with the high footpegs give off an unnatural riding posture
            • Stiff suspension results in the rider being thrown off while going over sharp bumps

            Royal enfield Classic 350
            The Classic 350 is a characterful motorcycle that prioritizes style and experience over sheer performance. It's perfect for those who enjoy leisurely rides and appreciate the classic motorcycle aesthetic. And I like this bike a lot because in our Bihar there is a different craze for Royal Enfield. This is the 3rd Royal Enfield bike in my family. My grandfather also own Royal Enfield classic old model and my father own royal enfield classic 350. The riding experience with my classic 350 is good even for long journeys but it vibrates at high speeds, no doubt, and riding it on rough surfaces is also difficult as compared to other bikes. My classic 350 also gives decent mileage, but I don't use this bike for mileage, I use it for fun. and if you regularly do servicing and maintenance then you will not face any problem in its performance and the bike will also remain in good condition.This is my review about Classic 350

            Hello all, I bought this
            Hello all, I bought this bike last year in Dec and since that I am rode about 12000 km. Overall it was a nice experience. The bike is very comfortable to ride in a city. I also rode this bike on nearby off-road area and I enjoyed that experience very much. Mileage is about 35 kmpl. That is good for mighty 350 cc bikes compared with competitors bikes.
