2022 Royal Enfield Classic 350; Should you buy one? Here is why I did!

[@maGnetar333]

The landscape, that exhaust note. Those sights and sounds....nothing more a simple man would ever need. Truly visceral.

[@Coastriderscotland]

These bikes are like time machines every ride 😁👍 Cheers Bruce

[@vijayasekarr.7117]

I'm 66. I've been riding bikes since my dad put me in front of him on his old Bullet and let me hold the handlebars when I was 12. We always have had a Royal Enfield in the family since then. My son owns a 2013 Bullet. I have a little 100 cc Yamaha commuter bike but have plonked down the advance for a Royal Enfield Hunter recently. Waiting for it to be delivered.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Fantastic you have rode all your life, enjoy your classic when it arrives! 😁 Cheers Bruce

Nice sound engineering, being able to hear the single's deep note over the background music is something rare on KZbin. Well done. Nice review!

I can understand you wanted to respray it to signals livery but that was also a lovely colour. Just got my signals insured today, no excuses for it sitting in the garage now as the forecast is dry and milder for the next 3 days here in Cumbria 👍🏻 time to start the running it in.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi Adrian, it was no more than a week after I finished painting mine after MotoGB said not bringing Signal models 3 months earlier when I bought my Stealth Grey last July when it was announced MotoGB we’re stopping bringing in RE and that RE we’re setting up their own U.K. Distributor and first batch of bikes arrived including… yep! Signals models! 😂 I loved the bike stock and think it would be even better in a gloss Grey finish than metallic. Enjoy your new Signals bike!, I saw the marsh grey one at Saltire MC in Edinburgh been sold so I may see another one this summer! 😁👍 Cheers Bruce

Greetings from Hamburg in Germany! The People say, the most english city out of England!! Since one year i drive the Meteor in fireballred and now i bought the Classic 350 in the same colour from my friendly dealer! Only one time i was in Great Britain. It was in 1981. I drove to the TT Rces with my BMW R65 and i visit the Triumph Workers in Meriden. All english people i met were so friendy!!! I enjoyed the Trip to the TT.

[@gasgas2689]

That exhaust sound is lovely isn't it, and a reason in itself to have one of these. I currently own an Interceptor, but next week by some strange dismorphication it will be turning into a classic 350. I think the video would have been better without the music, just the wonderful tones of the exhaust.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi, I have worked out how to reduce wind noise on the setting now on my Go Pro Hero 10 and also added a foam wind cover so now I don't use music on these films now so folk can listen to the lovely noise of the Enfield! Cheers Bruce

[@charlesnorman4159]

Beautiful

[@nearlypastit2385]

I had an Interceptor and downsized to a 350 Meteor. I never regretted the change (however, later forced to reluctantly say goodbye to the Meteor as my (relatively) local Royal Enfield dealer ceased trading so servincing logistics became a problem ). Whilst I did enjoy the whole of the video production 👍 I did wonder at the choice of background music. My late brother married a lass from Shetland and moved to live there. He played the violin for a hobby, and also composed a few tunes in the style of Shetland Folk Music. My own thoughts on listening to the soundtrack (and now being super critical) were that some gentle Scottish folk music would have been an ideal pairing (but, for the benefit of us Sassenachs, maybe not bagpipes !).

[@dennisbuckley]

Watching this, It’s just dawned on me why I’ve been bingeing on your channel of adventures with the RE 350 Classic - it’s not just the striking Scottish scenery, it’s also because it’s your only motorcycle. I’m tempted to trade my Tracer 7 for one myself - like many, it’s the classic styling, value, economy, and laid-back approach to riding are the big appeal. However, I only have the time, funds and garage space for one bike - too many KZbin owner reviews and owner comments (not all, but a lot) run along the lines of “ooh, I love my 350 Classic, I’ll often walk past my GS and Hayabusa in the garage and take the Classic” 🙄 Looking forward to another Scotland trip this autumn but alas, with the car - I’ll not get my wife and the dog and all their luggage on a bike 😂 Anyway, enough whinging from me - great bike, and a great channel 👍 My RE dealer is only 30 mins away - I must make that call…

[@Coastriderscotland]

Thanks for watching and enjoy your trip to Scotland in Autumn! 😁👍 Be more films on the 350 soon!, lots of places to go film and show amazing places! 😁👍 Cheers Bruce

I actually really like the Gunmetal grey colour, but it’s a shame they are not bringing the Signal variant to the UK. Lovely to see the beautiful East Lothian countryside in your video. I’m over in Fife, but your’s is fine country too. I’m hoping to get a motorcycle licence soon and will be looking for one of these Royal Enfields as my first bike, but maybe in Halcyon green.

This is a brilliant motorcycle for a new rider or like myself returning to two wheels with its user friendly easy manners, I’m doing a 2nd 1000 miles film soon. The grey bike is nice and no chrome is good for winter commuting, but the alloy engines of the other models look lovely,

Hi Rory, Saltire have a couple of Scram`s when I was there, probably have a Demonstrator now as they had a big shipment arrive of RE bikes last week

[@divexplore21]

I am very tempted to get one of these bikes. I currently own a Triumph Street Triple that I’ve had for 6 years and now has 50k on the clock. I think I will keep the Triumph as it’s running great still but at this mileage I will be offered peanuts selling it privately or trying to trade it! My Dad has the older 90s bullet 500 with left hand side gear shift with one up three down pattern so totally opposite to modern models. I’ve always admired its simplicity and charm and it’s always great fun to ride, when you get your head round the gears! Will head to Saltire for a test ride when the weather gets better. Great channel.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi, thanks for coming to say hi and telling me your future plans, always nice to hear from folk 😁 the Classic 350 would make a great second bike and if your riding your dads older bullet you already know of the charm of this type of bike and its rewards at its speeds in the right environment, prob best keep your Triumph too as you obviously love it having done those miles on it 😁 The J series 350 motor is a gem and you should go test ride one, i bet you will love it!, and at the asking price nothing short of probably the best value bike for smiles per miles 😁👍 Cheers Bruce

I would love to purchase a Royal Enfield ! I've been riding motorcycles since I was 11 years old and I'm now 67. I still love to ride and still working part-time. The Enfield 350 would be perfect for my 82 mile roundtrip to work, but the closest Royal Enfield dealership is at least 160 miles from my home. With a new Enfield needing a 300 mile first checkup, by the time I got it home, it would be time to take it back for 1st service. That's just not practical right now.

[@Coastriderscotland]

My 350 is in today (left at shop yesterday) for its 300 mile service with 800 miles on the clock! As have had to use it for commuting as my van needs a new engine, so you could do it a bit later than 300 if the engine shows no sign of power loss from tightening of valve clearances

[@1990-t1j]

Stunning coastline. Good decision to buy the 350. I also had an XT500. Yep, they're worth a lot now. My favourite 350 colour is the desert one, followed by the army green. I live in Thailand. Not sure what colours they've brought in. Even cheaper here. Around 3K GBP. I have a KTM 390 Duke which has had a cheap airbox mod and a 14T rear sprocket, meaning it's a bit taller geared. Doing your sort of commute it gets 103 mpg. Knocking around the city: 87 mpg. Really pleased with that.

@@Coastriderscotland Thank you for responding! It looks really nice. Will probably get one for myself

Quick question, I know the meteor has a gear indicator on the odometer bit, does the classic have one?

[@zedwarrior1866]

No

[@Coastriderscotland]

My Classic does not have a gear indicator

Could not understand most of what was said, this was how I watched (and enjoyed) the movie "Snatch".

[@Ey_up]

Never owned a motorbike; my pals got into BSAs as I got into pushbikes but that looked and sounded great. It's given me an idea...however, you will be cited in the divorce! Ride on!

[@Coastriderscotland]

This is one motorbike you should try Ey up! it's lovely to ride

[@MauriceTarantulas]

Lovely bike and scenery! I just got back from the Black mountains on my 125 and def was a struggle on the hills. So am wondering whether the classic has enough oompf. Have to test! But where I am its fairly flat...maybe the Scram a possibility. (Having that extra 4bhp). Otherwise the classic is so lovely. (reason being I found I needed around 55 on the Welsh twisties or had people up my ass).

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi, the classic 350 will hold 55 ok 👍

[@Andriesdemotorrijder]

mate question: Ive got a ktm 690 smc-r from 2021 Should i trade it in for a classic 350? :P

[@Coastriderscotland]

You will probably lose in top speed as the Classic is restricted to 75 mph max - but maybe if like me you want a Vintage looking British bike with out the oil leaks , dodgy wiring and a bike that starts on the button every morning to go to work, then one of these could be indeed for you!, At least go get a Demo ride of one and you will I bet be left scratching your head ho a 20 bhp bike can be so much fun and relaxing to ride!

[@hamidnabi9717]

i bought the same one, the engine gets overheated

[@Coastriderscotland]

Sorry to hear that, I removed the CAT and did the usual air filter intake and filter mods and it has run better for 7000 miles now Cheers Bruce

[@robertcostello9473]

How many miles have you done now

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi Robert, 5000 miles now, I did not ride Feb as off work I’ll, then had a loan of a car March, I previously was doing 500-750 mikes per month, winter nearly over so back commuting as from today!😁👍 cheers Bruce

Should have bought original panniers from re... 🙏

Yep I should have!, Hitchcocks have them in stock in green so prob order them soon, these ones will go on a push bike for shopping duties!

What´s that monument?

[@Coastriderscotland]

The Balfour Monument was built to comemorate James Maitland Balfour died 23rd Feb 1856, made his fortunes in the 19th C Railway Boom. A Tory MP whose son Arthur became Prime minister in the 1840`s

@@Coastriderscotland Okey, thanks! Alas, no battle against the redcoats fought there, and won for shure.......

[@KlingonCaptain]

I really wish that the Classic and the Meteor had enough horsepower to be legal on the highway in the U.S. of North America. They are so beautiful and comfortable. They are affordable but not practical. I need something like this that can handle a ten thousand mile round trip (or more) from coast to coast when I want to visit relatives. I see European KZbinrs on their "epic" 2,000 mile Journeys and think, that's everyday life over here. I want to ride like that but I can't afford the upscale of my continent, so I'm stuck driving my Kia Sorento.

[@vishwajitbopanna266]

well this bike can deliver that. try the interceptor 650 if your looking for more power

[@Coastriderscotland]

😁👍

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

That bike should have hydraulic valve adjustment,a belt drive, and a kick starter.Chain drive is expensive to maintain compared to a belt drive.

You live in a little country with slow speed limits and no real mountain ranges so it should do fine.

Hi, why not service the bike yourself? as long as you keep a detailed photo/ or video documentation with Genuine parts your warranty will still be valid. I bought my r,e 350 from Saltire and they quoted me £260 pounds for the first service. Not sure if this was parts included or not but even if it was ,its still pretty steep for a basic bike.

[@shashankmishra02]

Isn't first service free?

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi Liston, I will get the first device done next week with them, then probably service it myself at correct milage and as you say keep a record with video and receipts, already ordered filter and plug, sump washer etc from Hitchcocks

[@liston7124]

@@Coastriderscotland OK. thanks for the reply, just thought I would let you know. I am going to do all my servicing at the correct intervals myself. cheers

[@paulharvey5053]

Paid £210. In Hampshire UK if that helps £260 sounds steep.

[@MuhammadYasir-2526]

RE bikes which are exported to Uk and US are really top notch quality checked. But the one which are sold in India are not properly quality checked. Coz foreigners will sue the company for quality issues, but Indians blindly fall behind brand name and unnecessary emotions.
