2023 Royal Enfield Bullet 350 - Colours, Variants, & Features
The leaked online brochure shows that the new Bullet 350 will be based on the J platform. This platform is already shared by models like Hunter 350 & Meteor 350. Hence, slight changes to its design will surface. For example, the headlight, tail light section, & a new twin downtube spine frame chassis will be offered on it. Meanwhile, it'll get the iconic hand-painted stripes on the fuel tank. Features will include a new semi-digital instrument console with LCD digital display. It does not get Bluetooth connectivity for phones. A USB phone charging slot will be provided on it though. Meanwhile, the retro post-war design appeal will remain persistent with the new bike via elements like an oval-shaped master cylinder.
RE will offer the new Bullet in three variants: Standard, Mid, & Top. While the design will be the same on all of them, these will be differentiated via the features & colours. The base version will get a single-channel ABS (front disc/read drum brake) & two colours - Militray Red & Militray Black. It'll get black components and chrome engine with body graphics & single solid colour fuel tank. The mid-variant will get a dual-channel ABS (both disc brakes), body colour fuel tank & components, & a chrome-gold emblem on the fuel tank. Additionally, it'll be offered in two colours: The standard-Black & standard-Maroon. The top-end trim will get a Black Matt & Gloss colour combo on the fuel tank and the gold emblem as well. The engine components will be blacked out on it. Also, it'll be offered in a single colour - Black Gold.
All of the three variants will use the J-series engine. This engine is a 349cc single-cylinder air-cooled unit. It produces a peak power output of 20.2 bhp & a peak torque of 27 Nm. It'll be offered with a 5-speed constant mesh gearbox which will help the riders to use its torque-rich engine performance. In terms of hardware, it'll be equipped with a telescopic suspension on the front & dual shockers at the rear. Also, the tyres will be speaking rims and tube-type with different sizes for the front & rear. Additionally, the new updated model will get fat tyres with wider section for better grip.
