-
Royal Enfield Bullet 350 price, India launch date, colours, upcoming bikes.

While August was an action-packed month with the launch of the Hero Karizma XMR, TVS X e-scooter, Honda SP160, new Ola S1 lineup and the Ducati Diavel V4, September will also see quite a few big-ticket launches. 

Royal Enfield Bullet 350

Few motorcycles in India have as steadfast a following as the Royal Enfield Bullet 350 and on September 1, this iconic model will see arguably the biggest revamp of its life cycle. The revamped Bullet 350 will use the charming and refined J-series engine with bodywork thats very resemblant to the Classic 350, but with its own unique touches. This will also be the first Bullet ever to get dual-channel ABS. To read more about the  Bullet 350’s variant breakup, tap here.

TVS Apache RR 310-based naked bike

Until now, TVS has only spawned one bike from its partnership with BMW, the Apache RR 310. On September 6, TVS will launch the naked streetfighter version of the RR 310, but it won’t be just a rebadged BMW G 310 R. This new naked bike seems to have very edgy styling and to read all we know so far about it, tap here.

2024 KTM 390 Duke

After a litany of spy shots, both in India and overseas, KTM has finally taken the wraps off the 2024 390 Duke. Crucially, this bike features an all-new 399cc thumper making 44.8hp and 39Nm. The chassis and cycle parts are also brand-new, as is the electronics suite, which now also packs in Launch Control. To read more about the 2024 KTM 390 Duke, tap here.

Suzuki V-Strom800DE

The Suzuki V-Strom800DE was unveiled at EICMA 2022 and is based on an all-new 776cc parallel-twin engine platform, shared with the GSX-8S naked bike. Unlike the V-Strom 650 XT, this new 800DE has a modern electronics suite and a 21-inch front wheel, which should make it quite capable off the beaten path. This middleweight adventure bike has been spied testing in India for some time now with India-specific bits such as a saree guard and front number plate holder. Since this bike isn’t manufactured in India, it stands to reason that the Hamamatsu-based marque intends on launching it here.

Gaping air intakes round off the new-look nose. These are joined by a host of items that enhance aerodynamics, such as a wide front splitter and a lipped rear spoiler. It gets special V-spoke gold wheels – 19-inch at the front and 20-inch at the rear – shod with track-focused tyres.
