The Bullet is the only motorcycle model in continuous production for over 90 years in the whole world.
Bullet Meri Jaan.
Not sure it's 90 but definitely longest continuous production.
Yep, just like my 1990 bullet. Except for the engine, frame, brakes, suspension, looks and of course it’s now owned by Eicher Motors. Other then that identical to mine!
I’m pretty sure the rest of the world got that memo my Indian brother.
Would like to point out - it's not just about the nostalgia factor; there really is nothing that rides the way a Bullet does, not even the Classic. It's something about the seat and handlebar combination that makes the posture just about right and gives you balance akin to a bicycle, but with a motor. You gotta own, ride and live with one to know what I'm talking about, it might not even register on a first ride - cheers from Chennai 😊
This! I've realised the new age reviewers rarely understand or appreciate what that feel of a 350 is.. I've owned a bullet that'd sometimes break down and all the other hassles, but the memories with that one far exceeds the subsequent refined motocycles I've owned. Now I'm going back to the roots!
the Royal Enfield Bullet is a nostalgic bike. my uncle would ride with me in the front while i was probably around 6-7 yrs old and he would let me hold the handles while on a straight road. Those twin lights above the headlight are just something that that i can only relate to the bullet. My uncle is no more and i remember him when i see this bike. i would def buy this one day!
The Bullet in Maroon looks stunning
Royal Enfield seem to be making top class bikes for those who want no nonsense bikes. Economical, simple, and fun. Never ridden one. But am appreciating the style. 350cc and 107 mpg is amazing and a 300 mile range - that is superb.
I think for my money this is the one to get, it just looks so old school stylish. If you are going to have a lower power bike, might as well have that authentic old school look. I have not ridden any RE’s as they are not imported here, but at Christmas we are going on holiday and I may be able to rent either a Hunter or an Interceptor 650.
A "J" series 500 is needed with 30 plus hp. 20 hp is just not enough for most people.
Incorrect, millions of people ride with no more than this every day, in Africa they ride sometimes with a family of four on a Bajaj with less horse power than this.
@@xu10j4rs1 Maybe so, but if they had a choice they wouldn't choose it. People in first word economies don't mainly ride 20hp bikes.
Exactly, I don't really get the point of having 350 with 20hp... It's basically the bigger and heavier but just as slow as 125cc, and where I'm from you only need a B license to ride 125, so...
Nice one Bob !
Certainly not for me, but if it gets and keeps more people on bikes, then that's a good thing. 👍
I'm struggling to see where the £1k premium over the Hunter comes from tbh.
It's the bullet badge on the side overs. Lol.
its metal on bullet, hunter is made of plastic
size
It's £1000 extra for the hot air coming off the cooling system.
Quality. The hunter has a lot of bad quality parts
It has to be the hunter for me, but 20hp just not enough, so let's hope they put the 450 engine in a hunter design bike. I'd buy one
very logical and would be a huge hit.
You get on it, chug off and let everyone whizz past in a blur of anxiety and stress. Then you filter past in a jam and smile .
This guy gets it!
Spot on. That's what riding the Bullet is all about. Chug along at a decent, safe speed, take in the passing scenery, let the throb of the long stroke single fill your ears and generally enjoy the ride.
I bought the hunter great bike for my 5.ft 8 Inc frame fits like a glove and not to heavy for my 62; yr old back 😊
I really wish RE would come out with a new Bullet 500
I was not alive in the 50's so I feel no nostalgia towards the classic style bikes. But I think they are beautiful. The color options are better on the classic, but I think Im sold on the bullet for its big seat and standard heel and toe shifter.
Hunter is, obviously, a better option. But, I don't understand this model instead the Classic 350. It seems only the seat is the only one difference. Why a new model if it is the same as another one? 🤔 Good video 👌✌️
Hi, probably very low development costs and as they sell bucket loads of bikes worldwide, giving more choice will probably increase sales even more to a more traditional buyer. More choice has to be a good thing. 👍🏻
The primary reason is continuation of the “Bullet” badge, which has kept RE profitable for more than 6 decades after it closed shop in the UK, and enjoys tremendous sentimental value in its domestic market of India. They’ll always ensure the nameplate stays relevant, even though this bike could very well be sold as a variant of the Classic 350. Personally I feel the Bullet is more authentic to its heritage than the Classic. Cheers!
I would go for the Bullet or Classic because of nostalgia :D
Classy good looking bike 😍, but I also admire the roadster vibe of the Hunter 😎. I'll pick the Hunter one. 👍👍👍
On fuel economy, in real world use I'd say 90 mpg would be more realistic in town out on the open road yeah you can get 103-107 mpg 😊
Ridden the Classic. It would be a great commuter, every day runner. It's reasonably ok performance-wise in town or even tight country lanes. Might get a bit worrying on dual-carriageways and motorways though owing to lack of outright power.
Comfy bike to ride however and everything works; decent brakes, strightforward controls, reassuring handling and decently grippy tyres. If I was living and working in an urban setting, I would definitely consider one of the J series 350's as a 'ride to work' bike, easy home maintenance and good fuel economy. And on a price-point comparable with a Japanese 125.
Might need an Interceptor for the weekends though! Love and peace.
Everything you need to know!
It’s a classic 350 with a different tank and seat. Thank you
I haven't ridden any of these bikes yet but that simple military classic 350 I cannot turn it down as I'm military retired.
The Classic!
You are talking absolute Tommy Rot about the performance of this Bike,
I can tell you,
As a Motorcyclist with 50 years experience,
I currently own a Royal Enfield Interceptor and Hunter,
The Hunter (with the same J series engine), is capable of easily cruising at 65 MPH
With a top speed of over 70 mph,
And well capable of over taking vehicles 50/60mph
More than enough for UK roads,
Except for motorways,
Not everyone is interested in horse power or looking out for speed traps?
Some people have learned the true enjoyment of riding a Motorcycle ✌️👍
Cheers Paul Foster
I'd go for the classic
In the UK at least, the Classic 350 comes with the pillion pad as standard.
I was looking for a comment like this. I think i comes with pillion pad on most markets. MOTOBOB hasn´t done his homework, as usual.
A bit more pep..... Then use the holy trinity of upgrades for the J-series engine the dna performance air filter and cover and the fuel X lite or pro and a de-cat exhaust 😊
For a grand total of 22.5hp 🤣
@@Alex_mkII not about bhp on these enfield's it's about freeing up the engine to breath and improve the mid range pick up and torque through the gears 😊
I'd go the Hunter. Maybe make a Hunter 450cc to give it a bit more go.
damn i already have the classic o well
It's just a shame they cannot get these 350's up to about 30 BHP to give them that bit more "get-up and go"... but then with all these speed limits being reduced what's the point you may ask...
Non in Wales from September 😮
These are torque machines, they have more go below 5500 rpm you don't need to wring out the engine.
It's more of a relaxed experience than a quick one.
Slap a Cam on one and you are nearly there.
I would get a Bullet or a Classic, hands down!!!
Wait for classic 650 , bullet 650, Himalayan 650 , shotgun 650 and more.
bullet or classic twins might get a bit of negative reaction though. 500 J to keep it an a/c single as suggested elsewhere in comments would be a v good idea.
I'll prefer the old bullet for it's looks
I would of picked the maroon Bullet ,but now it has to be the Hunter.... Over all the chrome 350 has me at style and looks 🤔
I like it. It’s authentic.
Hunter is correct. Others way to heavy for power/torque output. An extra grand I could live with if bikes came with wire spoked tubeless rims and tubeless tyresas standard
Have a great new year. 🍻🥂🤪
I have seen reviews where these bikes will do 70mph. Most reviews have high regards for these machines. I would choose the Meteor.
Pas mal mais un des problèmes avec RE est que quand vous avez un problème d’injection, le système est quasiment irréparable…donc à changer…
Nice bike but the problem with Royal Enfield is the injection which is quietly impossible to repair…..
Nostalgia is just a thing of the past.
The way the uk is going 20mph speed limits everywhere (already 20mph all of wales) the smaller 350cc models of RE are becoming more & more appealing,yea there not gonna win the IOM TT but there gonna win a lot of people over & its just a matter of time the other MC Companies will wake up to the world wide changes!
Not sure about about waking up, the Japanese haven't engaged with electric bikes and you'd think they would, but now they are not recognising RE are producing bikes people want. They are not followingand may get left out of the equation soon.
Good ol bobby
I can’t wrap my head around why RE did not go for a 500 cc engine 🙈
License requirements in various countries i think. Also cheaper insurance etc. Its a bike to pose on really, which it looks like it would be good at.
I have a hunter but I will still go for the bullet because the hunter is the hunter but the bullet is royal. That put put put put put
Hay Royal Enfield bting back the 500cc already or just make them all the 650cc twins and get the horsepower somewhere in the 60 range already!
Traditional hand pinstripes
Hard to believe this thing heavier than a Street Triple 765 or Monster 937
Street triple is super light. It's basically an engineering marvel 🤍
I sat on one this passed weekend.
The emotions it made me feel 🥰
Finish looks great on the bullet looks cheap as chips on the hunter unfortunately!. Bullet still to expensive though especially with the new Triumphs on the scene.😮
100% Bullet
Seen a few RE at meets. And yes i know down to a price but the paint work on most is disappointing. I mean orange peel, sinks and wells.
I just do not get the 350cc/400cc city/town bike for the UK market.
125cc has plenty of options (including retro, cruisers, and scramblers) and can be sold to anybody with a CBT if you get bored.
The issue there is if you live somewhere that has hills you are stuck at 50 up a hill and 125s have no torque so constantly have go go up and down gears
@highlandrab19 most cities/towns in the UK are 20/30 MPH with some two lane roads 40 MPH (like the one I was on in Edinburgh today) if there are 50 MPH city/town roads that are uphill I have never found them.🤣
Man does not give a sh!t about that new triumph motocross bike.
Bullet is a better quality bike. And it's built better too. Also the bullet is targetted at an audience that doesn't want to go very fast. If you want to travel comfortably at slower speeds. The bullet is for you
We just need old model bullet 😞😞
The Hunter’s wheels are too small. Legs are too short so it struggles to achieve the speed limit on the open road.
The Bullet 350 is by far the best finished and nicest feeling of the 350s.
Its MrT the Bullet and the new classic wins hand down not keen on cruisers motorcycles
Disappointing the military colours not coming to UK
They already launched them
this is a model that grow on you, when i first know something about royal enfield, i find the classic and especially the bulllit the ugliest bikes of the brand, and find the himalayan, continental gt and interceptor the nicets ones. i start saving for a continental gt but the time pass and ended with a classic 500, the model start growing on me and find it beautiful, in that time still find the bullit the ugliest one but time has pass and im starting to like what i see
What is going to happen when everyone who wants a Enfield 350 has one then who are they going to sell bikes to? All fads come to an end.
I think they're taking the Michael calling it bullet.
Pellet would be more aptly named...
Bullet all day long......
Nice looker, but a tad overweight 😂
I subscribe tp and like your video content BUT the background music in this video is really bloody annoying!!! Sorry to be a whinger!
I quite agree, I thought it was an incoming call on my mobile !
Great video as always, I suppose there not right at the bottom of crap manufacturing, one up from Chinese rubbish that we are seeing more and more in bikes and cars.
CB 350 is better product than bullet
It always amuses me that if you build a garbage enough bike, it suddenly constitutes having 'character' 😅
Std 350യുടെ ഗെറ്റപ്പ് ഒന്നും new std നു ഇല്ല ബുള്ളറ്റ് ചെറുതായി പോയ് ഞാൻ ടെസ്റ്റ് ഡ്രൈവ് ചെയ്തു കുഴപ്പം ഇല്ല എന്നാലും std 350യുടെ അടുത്ത് new std ബുള്ളറ്റ് എത്തില്ല
Sorry R E my lawnmower has more horse power than these.😢
ONLY 26 hp ? Indian motorcycles are Made of junkyards materials, HeLLLL NO
Never have I been so bored with a motorcycle brand as of lately. Boring Enfield.
😢am scared if royal enfield dont make their bullet a E-bike
