Motorcycle specifications Royal-EnfieldBullet 350 2025 Ammunition for walkers

The bullet is an iconic Royal-Enfield model, almost as iconic as the brand itself. So when the Bullet 500 disappeared in 2020, we knew it was only goodbye.
R.E. gave its 350 platform time to settle in, with all its variants(Classic, HNTR Hunter, Meteor), then breathed new life into its flagship classico-roadster.

The look is preserved. The "bullet gun" has survived the ages without losing its identity. It's instantly recognizable, wherever it is in time. Like the other models I've already mentioned, it's built on the J platform, with the same single-cylinder engine operating between the steel tubes of the frame. A 349 cm3 with some twenty horsepower at 6,100 rpm and a small torque of 2.9 mkg at 4,000 rpm.

Simple mechanics, with 2 valves, 1 ACT and a 5-speed gearbox. The aim is to have an affordable motorcycle, whether for India or Asia (its growth markets) or the rest of the world. Affordable doesn't mean boring. The Bullet has charm to spare.
But, as the 350 Classic is already in the range, where should the Bullet be placed, and for which clientele? Aren't they too close?

Let's take a closer look. Our two cousins really do look like identical twins. Except that the Bullet benefits from a well-padded two-seater (mono on the Classic). There's no little cap over the headlight. Its handlebars induce a slightly more upright riding position, and its rear mudguard differs, as does the shape of the air filter housing.

The Bullet has not given in to LED technology for its lighting. The only truly "modern" features on this machine are the incredibly old-school digital window under the speedometer, and the USB socket under the handlebars. The ignition key is located on the dashboard, as usual.

no surprises on the chassis side. The new Bullet doesn't differ from the other members of its family, but shows a clear improvement since its predecessor. The forks have been increased from 35 mm to 41 mm, the tires are 10 mm wider, the front brake disc has been enlarged from 280 mm to 300 mm, and the rear brake has swapped its drum for a disc. The double-cradle frame is an improvement on that of the previous 500 Bullet, despite its very similar shape.

The new Bullet will be available from the end of October/beginning of November, at a price just below that of the 350 Classic. It is available in black or brown; or, for an extra 100 euros, in a slightly more precious Black Gold version, with a black finish, a 3D copper and gold badge, the return of the little cap on the headlight and matte-finish components.

Since its appearance in 1932, the Bullet has been the companion of sportbike enthusiasts. India took up the torch in the second half of the twentieth century, and this model was to enjoy the same longevity as it did victories in various competitions...
Now, the Bullet 350 opens a new chapter, returning to the same displacement that made it such a household name.
