Living with the new Royal Enfield Bullet 350

So true. I ride a 500cc, but so much of the time I'm not anywhere near the upper limit of what it (can) do, bcz..... well, chickens, cattle, dogs, surprise entrances where people shouldn't, etc etc.. Safety concerns, highly defensive riding in Asia. Had a 250 before this, and i hav to say.... a well_tuned 250 or 300 is rarely ever boring, if at all :) Good vid.

I own a Bullet 350. I’ve never had an issue with the mirrors. The foot pegs are perfect for me.

The mirrors on my Meteor come loose occasionally also, but put a drop of loctite on them, issue fixed

[@VonRyansExpress-v3r]

Royal Enfield actually called the headlamp enclosure the "Casquette" when it was introduced in the 1950's, the "Nacelle" of course was the Triumph version. . . Its a defining feature of the look and I applaud the company for evolving the bike but keeping such elements

Definitely the nicest looking bike in the 350 range. I would still prefer the Meteor as a daily rider. If people are complaining about the lack of power, they most likely do not get this bike at all. When i sold my CB125e, I was toying with adding a 350 to the fleet for daily duties. Still may get one down the track.

Great review.. Beautiful bike.. I did a test ride on the Maroon color one.. Loved its tourqey engine.. The thing that bothers me the most spoke wheels. Agree its retro looks n all.. But then again, if i get a puncture, then im stranded for hours..RE showroom guys says, u buy alloys n tubeless from outside.. As they don't have them as spares... Your thoughts on those wheels.. I think it will be better if we go for the single channel ones, as in the case of a puncture, there's less complication in getting the tyre removed.. Just my concerns😢

[@BikerTorque]

Im sure there are plenty of aftermarket tubeless options available, but have to admit in 30 years of riding, I’ve only ever had one puncture to a tubes tyre.

[@JonHarrey]

Actually just sold my Meteor Supernova and am thinking that the Bullet will be a better option for me. I loved the Meteor but found the feet forward position of the pegs meant that you can't absorb the shock of a bump or pothole through your legs and so it goes right up your spine which is not great for someone in their 60's. The low powered 350 motor is actually a very friendly and willing little power plant that never feels stressed and is absolutely fine for our winding country roads. I have larger capacity bikes if I feel the need to travel far or faster - the Bullet and Meteor are all about the fun factor.

[@BikerTorque]

I think if I was buying one of the 350s new today, it would be the Bullet, perfect for just putting about on.

[@punchbuggyyellow7097]

It's a fantastic looking bike, but I wouldn't ever consider owning one because of the power & weight figures. Don't get me wrong, I love a small low power bike. In fact I have a KTM Duke 200 & Yamaha 225 Scorpio in my garage next to my Aprilia & ride them both regularly. But, while the Royal Enfield Bullet 350 has over 50% more torque than my similarly air cooled Scorpio, it can only manage 1 extra hp despite having a 125 cc capacity advantage. The Bullet 350 also weighs 50 kg more than the Scorpio. Add that up & it leads me to believe that Royal Enfield have deliberately tuned the engine to be under-stressed due to heavier metals & lower quality components used in the engine in comparison to the Scorpio. And that doesn't bode well for its long term reliability.

[@BikerTorque]

Thanks for sharing. I think reliability wont be an issue, they have been making these type of lower capacity bikes for years. I have had my Meteor for 3 years now, absolutely no issues at all, although admittedly it hasn’t done a lot of kms, only about 10,000, due me having other bikes and also these press bikes, time will tell I suppose. I will have to check out the Scorpio, it’s not a model I am familiar with.

I have a bullet for last 10 years (with UCE, which isn't that refined as compared to the new J-series one). My uncle and many of his peers have Bullets, which were atleast 3 decades old (CI Engine). So, I don't see reliability is an issue.

[@punchbuggyyellow7097]

@@Antony_Shamarjit_Lee Age is not an indicator of reliability. My Yamaha Scorpio is 16 years old, but it's only done just over 17,000 km, so it's barely been tested. I just sold my '06 Kawasaki ER-6F that'd done just over 100,000 km. A blown Stator was all that I had to replace in the motor in 18 years of ownership. Even the clutch plates are the original factory fitted ones, so that's my baseline expectation for reliability. In contrast, I recently bought an '08 Aprilia Shiver with 66,000 km & it's on its second engine. Admittedly it's had a harder life based on its looks, but the original engine didn't even last 2/3rds of the life of my Kawasaki's before it gave up the ghost & had to be replaced.

I don't understand the " brakes are adequate for the power of the bike" thing. I hear it often in bike reviews. If I'm needing to go from 100km to 0 who the hell cares if the bike has 10hp or 100hp? I need the damage thing to stop. Not do a 0-100 time check. Either the brakes work well or they don't. Horsepower has nothing to do with it. Speed, weight, and traction are what is in play here. Not hp. Not GPS. Not seat height. Just will the dawn thing stop.

[@BikerTorque]

That’s a good point, I suppose what I mean is, you are not going to be tearing around at illegal speeds on this bike, so for the speeds it will do, the brakes are good

[@goatman3828]

@@BikerTorque I see your point there. Didn't think of it that way. Appreciate your reply.

[@zachary3777]

Any modern bike's brake are powerful enough to stop the bike. The reason sport bikes have big brakes is because they are designed to decelerate hard and accelerate hard repeatedly, within a short timeframe. You can imagine a bike that goes 0-60 in 3 seconds with a top speed of 180 needs to be designed to handle more braking energy than a bike that goes 0-60 in 12 seconds with a top speed of 70. No bike's brakes have to dissipate more power than the engine can produce.

[@goatman3828]

@zachary3777 I understand that. Formula 1 brake demands are (my guess) a thousand times more demanding than a daily driver. But the fact remains that if your sport bike and my put-put bike are both going 70 mph down the highway and we suddenly need to stop to avoid a moose in the road, the breaking needs are the same. In actual real world functionality having 20 hp or 200 hp doesn't matter. Both bikes need their brakes to function equally. So engine size or engine power, as a basis for determining how well the brakes work on a street bike is just hyperbole.

I regularly commute into the Sydney CBD on a 350 Meteor, definitely smoother than the 500 UCE engine in the Classic. I do have to do a short stretch of freeway, about 10kms or so, and it’s no issue as long as you plan any overtakes. In city traffic it’s great, easy to filter, and no dramas getting away from traffic at lights. It’s not going to win any land speed records, but it’s my bike of choice for commuting out of the options I have in the garage. Best bet, take one for a ride.

The older bike had more value for the money and lower servicing costs because you don't have to mess with the valve adjustment. All export 350 should have belt drive. Belts last 100,000+ and are cleaner and cheaper than a chain drive.

Pretty sure these use a synthetic or semi synthetic oil, doubt it would cook. Same engine as my Meteor, no issues so far after 3 years

@@BikerTorque That is still masking a symptom but not addressing the cause. Heat is an engine worst enemy. How many miles are on the bike? My Sportster with a carburetor runs cool in Florida in the summer 🌞⛱️. 200* oil temp. I have had my Sportster for 25 years and 400,000 miles on the original engine and 37 back tires and 17 front ones and 3 belts in 25 years. My daily driver as I don't have a car. No problem with engine heat.

May I know what's the round item that you mount on your left handlebar?

[@BikerTorque]

That’s a Beeline Moto, it’s a navigation pod

Not a bad for a little cruise. Thanks for watching

20 horse power is ridiculous and I'm not missing anything.

Each to their own I suppose

[@Robert-uy1gd]

I don't have to pull a caravan, so anything over 20 bhp is money down the drain. For me. If 125 bhp makes you happy, well, enjoy!

[@stevegresty4181]

Well, you'll never know will you, which is a shame, each to their own as they say.
