The retro roadster will debut in India later this year

Royal Enfield seems to be hard at work lately. The bikemaker is already closing on the launch of the 2021 Classic 350 and has also begun testing the Scram 411. Another motorcycle that has been undergoing heavy testing is the Hunter 350 and going by the new set of spy shots, it will not be long before the company launches this bike.

The Royal Enfield Hunter 350 is among the new set of models based on the company’s new J-Platform, which started with the Meteor 350. So, expect the new Hunter 350 to be powered by the same 349cc single-cylinder engine producing 20.4PS and 27Nm.

Unlike the Royal Enfield Meteor 350, the Hunter 350 gets a slightly aggressive riding posture. So, the footpegs aren’t forward-set like the Meteor 350 and even the handlebar is a tad lower. Royal Enfield has equipped the bike with a bench seat reminiscent of the British bikes of the 50s.

The Hunter 350 gets gaitered telescopic forks and dual shocks while braking equipment includes disc brakes at both ends aided by dual-channel ABS. Just like with the Meteor 350, Himalayan, and the soon-to-be-launched 2021 Classic 350, the bike will come with a Tripper navigation pod.

Royal Enfield has promised to launch a new motorcycle every quarter. Now, with the launch of the 2021 Classic 350 around the corner, we expect the company to launch the Hunter 350 in the fourth quarter. The Hunter will compete against the likes of the Jawa 42 2.1 and Honda CB350RS.
