The popular Classic 350 has undergone a huge overhaul. While it may not look like it, at first glance, the bike has undergone big changes. Before we dive into the details, here is how it has been priced. The entry-level, rear drum brake equipped model (Redditch) costs Rs 1.84 lakh, sitting above it is the Halcyon that gets a disc brake and dual-channel ABS (Rs 1.93 lakh). The Signals model, meanwhile, costs Rs 2.04 lakh, while the alloy-wheel equipped Dark variant is priced at Rs 2.11 lakh. Lastly, the top-spec Chrome model will set you back by Rs 2.15 lakh.

2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350: engine
One of the most significant changes comes in the form of the ‘J-platform’ 349cc engine that replaces the 346cc UCE. Royal Enfield has said that this engine is the same as the one found on the Meteor 350. However, it has its own ignition timing, exhaust layout and fueling map. As a result, the old Classic’s pushrod-valve system is replaced by a SOHC two-valve head. Peak power and torque figures stand at 20.3hp and 27Nm. For reference, the outgoing model makes 19.1hp and 28Nm.
