Royal Enfield Bullet 350: 3 reasons to buy and 2 to skip it

-
Image
The Royal Enfield Bullet has been in continuous production for nearly a century, making it synonymous with the Royal Enfield brand itself. It was one of the last to be updated to the J-platform, sharing its mechanical components with the Classic 350. If you're considering the Bullet 350, here's what works in its favour and what might give you pause. Reasons to buy Bullet 350 Smooth, characterful engine The Bullet 350 is powered by Royal Enfield's refined J-platform 349cc single-cylinder engine producing 20.2hp and 27Nm. If you aren't intent on living life in the fast lane, this is about as good as engines get at this price point. The engine is torquey, easygoing, smooth, brimming with character and churning out a great exhaust note.
