![]() Tall riders will find it spacious enough, but the relatively low 790mm seat also means that it will comfortably fit shorter riders. But overall, it can be described as a comfortable riding position with a hint of sportiness. The new Hunter 350 seats you like no other J-platform model, as the pegs are a bit rear set and there’s a slight reach to the handlebar. Royal Enfield Hunter 350: ride and handling Buyers have the opportunity to customise their Hunter 350 as they please, with the accessories catalogue including bar-end mirrors, LED indicators, passenger backrests, windscreens, engine guards, luggage, seats and even a tail tidy, which is a first for the brand. The base Retro variant is even more sparsely equipped, featuring a simpler instrument cluster, single-channel ABS with a rear drum brake, slimmer tyres, a halogen tail-light, rectangular indicators and a tubular grab rail.īut as is the case with modern Royal Enfields, there’s a whole host of accessories to choose from for the Hunter 350. The Metro variant gets 17-inch alloys, a USB charging port, two trip meters, dual-channel ABS, an optional Tripper navigation pod, hazard lights and an LED tail-lamp. However, an area where the Hunter does fall a bit short is equipment levels, as something like a TVS Ronin is better equipped at a similar price. Hunter Metro's instrument cluster gets a gear indicator and clock Tripper pod is optional. In terms of quality, we found the paint finish and the switchgear on the Hunter to be good, especially considering the price point. There’s also the entry-level Retro variant on offer, which gets simpler paint schemes and wire spoke wheels. The model we’ve tested is the higher Metro variant in the Dapper Ash colour scheme, which we think suits this motorcycle particularly well. Many will appreciate the Hunter for its simplistic styling. It gets a round halogen headlamp, teardrop-shaped fuel tank, a flat seat, a small side panel with the Hunter 350 branding and a neat tail section with a round tail-lamp. The Hunter 350 is styled to look like your typical retro roadster, and it does look quite nice. Royal Enfield Hunter 350: design and features On paper then, it appears to be rather compelling but only a full road test out in the real world will determine just what the Hunter 350 is all about. It’s got the classic British roadster design and is available in many colour schemes, it’s powered by RE’s smooth and torquey 350cc J-series engine and it has a very attractive starting price of Rs 1.50 lakh (ex-showroom). And at first glance, it seems like the Hunter 350 is just the right tool for the job. The new Hunter 350 has a big job on its hands, which is to broaden Royal Enfield’s customer base and attract a wider audience to the brand.
