A very fair review. Some of the numbers look poor on paper: too heavy, not enough power. But we don't ride on paper, we ride on the road, and this is a great bike for real world use. Frugal, fun, great for commuting or exploring. And they are indeed surprisingly well built, and covered with QC marks. Royal Enfield have really upped their game, and the quality is now on par with the best from Japan or Europe.

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks for your feedback 👍

[@stephenwandersonea1935]

Well said. It's a great machine.

[@garykyle5750]

I absolutely love mine. The Cam sold by Hitchcocks makes a world of difference without changing any of the sweet ride of the bike. I installed Hitchcocks full exhaust,DNA system for air box and FuelX Lite. 9 bikes in my garage and I ride this one the most. Over 60 years of riding and racing motorcycles and this Classic 350 is one of my all time favorites.

[@Marc.Stones]

You did all the possible tuning mods, sounds good. I will start with the air box after the brake in period.

[@HunterVlog350cc]

reality check- this bike sells 27K per month and continuosly selling like that since last 15 years, waiting period then was 6-8 months now it is 2 months still demand far exceeds supply.

[@tweedelidee]

I saw exactly the bronze chrome version a year ago and bought it on the spot. I still own and ride my 33 years old BMW outfit with sidecar, but I enjoy this Royal Enfield as one of my favorite solo bikes ever ( I owned and rode quite a few over the decades ). It has something no other bike on the market can offer (except maybe original vintage machines, with their flaws and problems ) - if, as You say, one understands the philosophy of this bike. One thing I did change was the air filter. ( for a DNA) Also, after 2000-3000 kms of riding it in, the machine really shows it can be a perfect machine even for serious travelling.

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks for your feedback. A lot of riders say the engine will be even better after 2000 km, looking forward to it. I also ordered the DNA filter, I will change the filter after the brake in period. Cheers Marc

[@ReRiderChi]

I'm just going on 3,000 miles in 4 months and love my '23. Not a speed demon but I that was my intention. Easy on gas and zen-like at proper cruising speed with good roads. Highly recommend; cheers from chicago

[@Marc.Stones]

Hi Mischa, thanks for your feedback. I also enjoy this beautiful bike. Cheers from Berlin

[@mohitjindalhsr]

Hey! Glad to see a fellow Classic 350 rider from Chicago. I own one, too, and I had a few questions. Could we connect?

[@ElwoodPDowd-ed7pc]

Nice bike! I had a Himalayan a few years back. I had fun learning how to ride, it was a bit heavy for a beginner but I finally conquered the weight. I put many more miles on my current moto (c400gt). UPDATE - a few weeks ago I traded my c400gt for a new RE Hunter 350 … I’m simply loving the moto!

[@timboharty7325]

Great review , I have the same bike here in southern Austria , it’s the perfect bike for the region and copes effortlessly with the mountain passes

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks a lot, good to hear that the Classic is also good on mountain passes 👍🏻👍🏻

[@stephenwandersonea1935]

In Coastal Southern California and have a 2023 Classic 350 Reborn also in Chrome-Bronze which I purchased over 7 months ago and absolutely love. I often get asked questions about how old it is or who makes it. I rarely see another Royal Enfield on the road even though there are two dealerships that carry this bike less than an hour away from where I live.

[@BulletGuru]

Nice video

[@amitchodankar1989]

Waiting for Himalayan 450 review video

[@mockbattles]

Bronze Chrome looks even more beautiful in the setting sun.

[@Marc.Stones]

Absolutely agree ✌️

[@toneppenhof7192]

A very honest review. Nice to see how you realise that running in a new bike is important.

[@Marc.Stones]

Yes indeed, very important.

[@abhijeetsantra4237]

If you are planning to buy this bike. Please shoot a video of your entire experience and your first weekend ride as well. I am pretty sure, you will fall in love with this bike like all of us enfield fans. And probably, in a few months, you will generate more money than the cost of the bike. We are Enfield fans and we love to hear good things about Enfield. I do own the stealth black variant of classic 350 reborn.

[@Marc.Stones]

Hi, thanks for your feedback. I bought the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and I am very happy with it. In the near future there will follow a lot of videos about this beautiful classic bike on my channel. I am planning some mods on the bike too. Cheers Marc

[@retromotorbikes]

Good review, thanks. Very nice color bronze and chrome.

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks 🙂

[@matthiasd4929]

Beautiful bike! 👍👍👍

[@ijs_automotive]

Nice to see someone not ripping the new engine just for the sake of making a review video. Beautiful review loved it.❤

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks :-)

[@ambience_tours]

The Classic 350 looks beautiful, looking forward to more videos like this, great work, thanks 👍

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks, more vids will follow soon ✌

Got my in July, Halycon Green, most pleased. The engine need 2000 km before really setteled in. Massive difference. Will recommend this motorcycle too all. Very good review, just my thoughts and feelings for the bike. In Norway. 🇧🇻

[@Marc.Stones]

Hi Bjorn, thanks for your feedback and have a safe ride!

[@TekOverclocked]

Beautiful Bike, Great video production you deserve way more subscribers brother.

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks a lot 👍😃

[@HardDanceShuffler10]

mich haut dieses bike einfach um! Bin mittlerweile 27 und mache nächstes Jahr meinen A- Schein in Österreich. Als ich so ca 16-20 war wollte ich immer nur Supersportler, Supersportler. Gixxer hier, Yamaha R6 da aber dieses Bike oder auch die interceptor 650 haben es mir sowas von angetan, wobei die classic vlt für den Anfang besser ist, da diese mich mit Sicherheit nicht überfordern wird !Außerdem sind diese bikes wesentlich besser für Touren ausgelegt, die ich unbedingt unternehmen möchte :) Danke für dieses wunder schöne Video Marc! Bin froh auf dein Kanal gestoßen zu sein

[@Marc.Stones]

Sicher eine gute Idee, die Royal Enfield ist ein tolles Bike für Fahranfänger. Auch für Touren sehr gut geeignet. Viel Erfolg beim Führerschein 👍

[@thejoker-ie1mm]

This is a very beautiful bike, thanks for video. 👏

[@curtis164]

Very good bike for the price. Nice retro bike!

[@lalrintluangarenthlei436]

I bought the chrome red version ,very smooth and pleasant to ride also the gear shift from 3rd to 4th gear is very satisfying looks classic but with a modern technology. KHALH NUAM KHAWP MAI TIRAW ,SIRJI !

[@Marc.Stones]

I absolutely agree 👍🏻👍🏻

[@edwinpriest7928]

I just completed my MSF course and as an old guy (65) was considering this as a good starter bike for me. Your video was extremely helpful in helping me make my decision to get this, especially as I am the same size as you and was worried about the fit. I pick up my RE Classic 350 (in Stealth Black) later this week with the upgraded touring seats, and cannot wait. Thanks for an excellent video!!

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks for your feedback Edwin :-) Have a safe ride with your new Classic 350 !

[@eduardp.4274]

Danke marc für den test! Hab letztens noch nach einem gescheiten Video danach gesucht und hier ist es nun😅 danke!

[@Marc.Stones]

Danke für das Lob 🙂

[@jorgvatteroth1742]

Hi Marc, hast Du die Classic gekauft? Fahre selbst u.a. die Himalayan und finde die Classic auch sehr schön!! Demnächst kommt auch noch die Bullet 350 zu den Händlern, da die 500‘er ja eingestellt worden ist! Mal sehen…vielleicht steige ich ja um…?!

[@jamesonpace726]

Riding since 12 years old, now 60 with 20 years off as a "grownup". Love this new old bike & your review....

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks a lot :-)

[@dsera2721]

i genuinely had a smile watching this video, it's a beautiful bike and good editing with constructive thoughts. 👍💜

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks a lot :-)

[@josevi5835]

Thanks for the honest and mature review. I tried this bike few days ago in Madrid. And I loved it. Smooth, incredible sound, torquey engine, no vibrations and extremely comfortable. The 19"-18" wheels are part of the secret plus a fantastic suspension. I do not exaggerate if I say that the sound of the one cylinder engine is the best in its class. I will buy one when I sell one of my bikes.

[@Marc.Stones]

You will have a lot of fun with the Classic 350 👍😎

[@johnrocker2986]

Nice job and a great bike for the quieter and smaller back roads.

[@Marc.Stones]

Thanks, I agree a great bike for cruising on country roads ✌️

Bought one 3 weeks ago , love it

[@MACO60]

Thanks for the review. Do you think it is possible to do long distance riding on the Royal Enfield Classic 350?

[@Marc.Stones]

The riding comfort is very good and the fuel consumption of 2.6 L/100km is very low and the 13L tank is big enough to ride between 400-500 km.

[@ambience_tours]

Great review, thanks 👍

Side panels are plastic not metal but they are the only plastic on the whole bike …I’ve got one and it’s an absolute joy to ride !

[@AvinashASTIKAR-bf7mz]

You can change the silencer by using silencers like dolphin or short bottle it gives a great sound

[@michis.9888]

Moin, auch ich habe dieses Modell (classic 350) für mich entdeckt und kann es seit knapp 1 Woche mein Eigen nennen. (In meinem Fall in der Militär-Optik "Signal" Desert Sand) Passt für mich vom Ergonomie-Standpunkt (auch 1,88m bzw 6' 2") hervorragend. Aktuell befinde ich mich folglich noch in der "Einfahrphase" (Disziplin erforderlich), die ersten 500 km waren nach 2 Tagen erlediigt. Bin mal gespannt auf die Kosten der Erstinspektion, die morgen bzw übermorgen erfolgen wird.

[@Marc.Stones]

Moin, die Desert Sand sieht auch klasse aus. Da warst du ja mit dem Ein fahren sehr fix.

[@michis.9888]

@@Marc.Stones ....und die Einfahrerei ist ja noch nicht beendet. Bis ca 1000 km lasse ich die Sache noch recht ruhig angehen, so bis ca max 80 - 85 km/h. Übrigens zur Info: Die Erstinspektion (eine "große") ist nicht ganz billig. Ich habe vorhin 283, 50 € bezahlt. Dafür ist die nächste 5000er - Inspektion eher nur so ne "Mal gucken"- Sitzung (ohne Ölwechsel, Ventile etc) Gruß aus M'Gladbach

Hi this is Amol from India I have the same bike I got it 15 days back but as my height is 5.6 inches I ned to lean ahead while driving can you suggest some handlebar for this bike

[@Marc.Stones]

Hi, maybe you can use the handlebar of the Meteor, it's higher.

Schade, ich habe auch die Classic 350 und ich liebe dieses Motorrad inzwischen.

We can't see the video properly screen blocked because of overwriting on the screen I like the video very much

[@macbr.6223]

oh mann - coole video! ich bin 56 und hab vor 2 Jahren eine 125 ccm Brixton. Nun wollten meine Frau und ich nächstes Jahr den grösseren Schein machen und uns eventuell die meteor holen - wir wohnen allerdings mitten in den bergen und müssten wenn dann immer Passstrassen mit bis zu 15%steigung überwinden (obertauern) Nun haben wir ein wenig Sorge, dass wir mit den knappen 21 ps eher opfer statt genusscruiser werden - hast du auch bergerfahrung? danke und lg

Hi, in den Bergen bin ich bisher noch nicht gefahren, da kann ich noch nichts berichten. VG Marc

[@macbr.6223]

@@Marc.Stones schade - irgendwie finde ich echt kaum jemanden, der mit den enfields in den bergen unterwegs ist…

[@the_drifter-bw9hj]

​@@macbr.6223people in India literally ride the classic 350 up the Himalayan mountain passes at 18000 ft. It can take on anything.

[@j.f.k.whitehouse6804]

Wohne und fahre mit Classic und Meteor hier im Hochgebirge (Raum Garmisch, Brenner, Dolomiten etc.) und bin im dritten Gang bis 65kmh kilometerlange Steigungen hochgefahren. Der Motor sagt und zeigt dir seine Wohlfühldrehzahl bei 12 oder 18 Prozent Steigung. Klar, die schnellen Reiter werden vorbei gewunken, du aber genießt jeden Alpenpass und kennst fast jede Kuh beim Vornamen ;-).

[@mazinemohamed9798]

hello, is it suitable for a tall rider? am 6.2 ft and would love to have one but am so worried I wont fit on comfortably

[@Marc.Stones]

Hi, I am 6,.16 ft and the Royal Enfield is very comfortable for me. Best is to make a test ride.

[@mazinemohamed9798]

thanks sir ❤❤❤

Have u heard of the bajaj dominar 400?
