Picking Up the Royal Enfield Classic 350
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.ค. 2024
- The day finally arrived; I headed off to Kmoto in Vilnius, Lithuania, to pick up a Royal Enfield Classic 350.
This also gave me a great opportunity to have a look around Kmoto and see what Lithuanian motorcycle dealerships are like.
The Royal Enfield Scram 411, Royal Enfield Himalayan, Interceptor and Continental GT 650 were all there. The Continental GT 650 had been bored out to 865cc and produced 70+hp (very interesting, as it's the first time I've seen one of these bored out).

Lots of upcoming Royal Enfield bikes:-
RE hunter
RR super meteor
RE Shotgun
RE Bobber
Thank you Sagnik :)
You’ve just blown my mind, Sagnik! I had no idea about these (apart from the Super Meteor)!
Thank you sir🙂
@@FreddieDobbs you are welcome Freddie,
We have also seen some spy shots of RE Himalayan 450 here in India, and some are saying it will be launched under the brand name of Sherpa..
BTW, love your videos, and I jope your channel and your awesome content gets more and more success
@@sagnikdebsarkar169 gee I hope they do call it Sherpa!! What an excellent name. Royal Enfield can do no wrong!
There's also a himalyan 650 coming
Visiting a bike dealership is like going to a candy store, everything is so tempting and you feel like a kid all over again 😃🔥😍.
Exactly. Went to buy yezdi scrambler test rode classic 350 brought honda cb350rs
You do indeed..
So true … and it never stops ! 😂😂😂 every time again 🫶🏻✨👋🏻
Exactly. Heart rate goes up, respirations and BP. We get it
Royal Enfield go from strength to strength...well done them! I love the scram and himmy, just wish they had a 650 (single cylinder) version. As that interceptor had been "sorted" I wonder if performance parts are available for the 350 and 411? Dare say they are restricted from the factory, just need exhaust, air filter and a remap to give it a few more horses, or is there more to it? regards Mick
I know this is a Classic 350 vid but that big bore Continental had me wiping drool off my chin. 🤤
How cool was that! I was exactly the same!😍🏍
X3 🤤✌️
When modern engineering and classic design combine, what a stunning bike, can't wait for the next video
I’m in love😍🏍
@@FreddieDobbs this could prove an expensive trip haha
As a Lithuanian living in UK love to see Englishman exploring Lithuanian 👌👍💪
Greetings from Knoxville, Tennessee, USA.
Thanks for taking us along on this trip. It’s so cool to see normal, every day life of people in a different country and a different culture.
And yes - we motorcyclists all speak the same language!
Can’t wait to see your proper review of the bike.
Absolutely perfect for the Himalayan to be covered in mud, how it's supposed to be. Waiting for the Scram 411 myself. Much love
Isn’t it- the Himalayans look so good roughed up!🤩🏍🤘🏻
Thanks Danny🤜🏼🤛🏼
A Scram 411 with crash guards would be interesting, like a fancy Himalayan
@@fallinginthed33p can't wait to get my hands on it
Check with your local dealer. I have heard that the Scram was a request from RE Europe, and it may not reach your region (Americas right?). Otherwise some journalists here in France find it even better than the original Himalayan (But this is a matter of taste).
that custom 650 sounded like a roaring beast......Congrats on your Classsic 350 , evergreen motorcycle from RE.
Now then! That RE GT looks like a beast, get a go on that Freddie see what its like in a straight line with those mods!
Wow, gt with twice the power but the same brakes and handling. I had an interceptor for a while and it would certainly get out of shape when you pushed it. But it wasn’t about the sport ride, more the B road cruise.
I know exactly how you feel about this one , I have the halcyon gray one , I put about 1000 miles on it thus far , I absolutely ❤ mine .
That Himalayan looks absolutely phenomenal. It's got its own little battle scars which add to the character, as rightly said by you. Awesome!
Freddie, you 're THE most entertaining, english speaking, bike content creator in TH-cam. Looking forward to your review on the Classic 350.
Really Proud to be an Indian. Happy to see other country people liking the True indian born bike . This bike's manufacturing plant is just a few minute drive from my place in chennai ,India . currently, I am studying in vilnius .Hope to see you one day to talk about the bike culture in India .😃😇
Proud to be riding my own classic 350 knowing its made in India. Love the no nonsense engineering.
That's interesting to learn your proximity to Re plant while am from CBE currently in KL. Wish to share interests with you. Being a biker myself and also knowing Lithuania. Kindly connect. Cheers
That modded 650 is something I would love to see a detailed video on.
Interceptor is one of the best in their line up , I have an interceptor with me which I loves the most along with a ktm Rc 390 , a Ducati scrambler ikon and my favorite 1968 royal Enfield g2

I am currently live in Manali which located at the north of indian Himachal state and everyone here drive Himalayan and REs. I fell in love with Himalayan with a first sight and after that decided to buy the second-hand one bike. Really really crazy bike for off-road here. The first gear is insane. Love very strong Himalayan.
Wow! Conti 650's roar was just music to my ears!, great video Freddie. 👌
What a great peek into Lithuania from a motorcycle dealership. Just add watercraft and that is a typical setup of most USA based motorcycle dealerships. Harley and Triumph are the only brands that occasionally have motorcycle only dealerships.
You said, you will not get too excited at 14:30 but parked the bike at the place which looks very close to the road ;)
Stay safe!! we would love to continue enjoying your videos...
Looking forward to this RE 350 soon...
I wanted to end with the best possible setting- it’s too beautiful a bike not to find a nice background😍🏍
Shame you never got a chance to ride the original Classic 500. The real deal as it were. I have one of the final one's on a 21 plate. An amazing machine 😎🤠
But he has ...

I’m loving my Classic 350! I hope you enjoy this one.
That Continental sounds glorious, tunnel bomb will sound terrific. There are only 2 types of shops that turn me back into a kid in the candy store, one is the fishing tackle shop, the other is the motorbike dealership. Thanks for posting
Once again a very informative video
I can remember the days when here in the UK we also had big dealerships
Not many left now
I like the huge amount of bikes & stock that the dealership had
Makes the whole experience very transparent
Here in the UK we are not always able to view, try clothing on, sit on the bike as there not in stock
Nice to see the guy explain the details of the bike to you
Clearly a great experience 👍
Oh that Cafe Racer...that sound that confusion...that chaos that Rush...Dope!
Love your enthusiasm for bikes. Makes me love them more. Cheers!
I'm soo glad I have the pleasure of owning one of these legendary motorbike. I have one in Stormraider S 2021
Hoping to get a 350C next year when I've done my test. Looking forward to your review 😁
Hi , glad to see your having fun out there and the rain has given up . Hitchcock have done a big bore conversion in the UK , with a video by Stuart Fillingham on the tube, worth a watch . There seems to as much gravel roads in Europe as there are tarmac ones . Thanks to Kmoto for letting you look round and thanks for the video . Take care, and catch you o the next one .👍😀 all the best .
Labas! Nice to see you exploring Lithuania and Vilnius, and best of all doing that from a bike enthusiast point of view. Hope you get to try out more of these nice RE`s 😋
Looking forward to the 350 review. Been a a big fan of RE since the new models were introduced a few years ago. They are all great looking bikes and I want them all, but unfortunately the budget won’t support that. I’m determined to have one very soon. Tough decision . Thanks for the walk around and upcoming review. Cheers, Dan ✌️🏍🇨🇦
That Interceptor sounded fantastic!...the Himalayan is the only "adventure" bike I can actually ride..my feet do touch the ground..lol..i do love the chrome/paint combo's on the tanks..they are beautiful...excellent video...Thanks!!
Welcome to Lithuania from your channel fan from Lithuania. Hope you will have lovely time in our country. Try to drive with a motorbike to Trakai - castle between lakes, also if you are into 340 km ride to Nida - place with dunes at Baltic see. You also have to taste desert called sakotis or as we also call bankuchenas - or better find a place and see how it is made.
Welcome to sunny tropical Thailand 🇹🇭 th-cam.com/video/ccj-ydnB-WM/w-d-xo.html
Your excitement is infectious!! Looking forward to the next videos 😁
First thumbs up from me today, looking forward to this vlog, I looked at a RE Classic 350 a few weeks ago and I am interested to see what you make of it Freddie.
Thanks Shane! First impressions are hugely positive😍🏍
You'll love it Freddie. I have a 2016 (17 registered) B5 Bullet 500 and it's the worst bike I've ever bought in so many ways, but the one that gives me the most outright joy riding.
Bike looks great. Bigger than a 350. Enjoy 👍🏻
I’ve always loved the looks of the Himalayan. That black one just looks fantastic and great job on that top box. I’m not usually a fan of top boxes but that one suits the bike perfectly. RE’s are really growing on me. So looking forward to the next one Freddie. Hopefully it comes out very soon :)
I used to have a Royal Enfield 350, year 2000, Great bike to ride.
That continental gt is a beast ..
Eastern Europe is where I am going on my travels in the future. I've already started a few years back.
It is like going back to nicer times. Like 1975 in Sweden ( my country). People are really nice...Completely safe it is...I'm going on a 6 week road trip soon. Starting in Gdansk, where the ferry from Stockholm make land😘😁
I love that bored out 865 Royal Angryfield!
I had my first bowl of beet root soup today based on your recommendation.! excellent! followed by main course of baked chicken,baked calliflower and bacon bun from baltic bakery on Archer ave here in chicago illinois!
Thnx for featuring my custom gt650, and yes, I does wheelies now. :)
Sry, my custom gt865 I meant...;)
You look really good on that red and chrome version Freddie 😎
Great job Freddy! You are the man!
I love the enthusiasm and passion you put into your videos - keep up the good work 👍
What a brilliant bike shop, they're really what I love to just go and visit, they have a bit of everything, and such a big building too 👍 looking forward to the next video and the one on the Scram too, I can see your stay in Lithuania will be a good one.
Hi Freddie, great looking dealership. That chrome continental is a beast - tops ride
Isn’t it- I really liked that Continental a lot!💪🏼
Another great video, thank you Freddie.
Gorgeous video. Thank you for this
Love the series and thank you Freddie & Monica. Hope your well - life is good and your wheels are a rolling - Best wishes 🙏
My wife is half Lithuanian half English although born in the US. Lithuanian is Definitely on our to visit list. She has not been to the UK but i have via the Air Force. Will definitely be back though.
Great vids Freddie, your natural attention to simple detail is refreshing, informative and easy to watch.
Lovely video Freddie. Looks lovely the bike, countryside, and dealership.
Looking forward to the review. Beautiful bike.
The Himalayan caught my eye. So nice to see you manage wherever you are, a Man for All Seasons.
Looks beautiful glistening in the sunlight. Lucky you and Monica have it for 2 weeks, hope the weather stays good. Ride safe.
You’ll love it. I’ve just done John O Groats to Lands end on mine, 2152 miles in total, getting there and coming back. The bike performed faultlessly and while not fast can run comfortably at 70mph if necessary. Superb bike. Hasn’t used a drop of oil in 2600 miles. It really benefits from proper running in, the motor frees up nicely and the brakes definitely sharpen up. Beautifully made as well.
Wherever you go, as you say , we all speak the same language. No matter who you are, your preferences or your origin, we all get on.
Maybe that's what I like about bikes the most.
Great dealership. 👍 Just needs a coffee ☕️ shop!
Loving the 350.
Everything you need to travel. A roll bag on the back. Back road route. Off you go. And much rather go off the beaten track on one of these than half a ton of Bavarian metal.
Good one.
Happy, safe travels 👍
I was thinking exactly this re the coffee shop👌🏻☕️
And the back road with the Classic 350- it’s perfect habitat🤘🏻🏍
Hi Freddie, so happy for you. Love your videos, your voice and the content. Can’t wait to see more videos with your new Royal enfield brother
Ohh Freddie that conversion sounds so good and double the horses great , looking forward to your thoughts in the next vids but it looks lovely .😊👌
Great video, feeling excited to see how you feel with it! Absolutely adore my classic 500 tribute! It's slow, but that's the fun and charm of it! For everything else there is the Transalp! 😁😁 Take care and ride safe mate 😊🖖🏼
You should hear the old Classic 350 and 500, they sounds better than a Harley..😍😍
Being looking forward to this, so cool
Awesome video and awesome content can’t wait for the next video Thank’s Freddie and Monika
I look forward to your review. The enthusiasm across TH-cam for this motorcycle is phenomenal despite its lowly 20 bhp. It must really do something to the rider. As someone who rides a BMW G310 with a whopping 34 bhp I find this interesting. I expect your enthusiasm levels to be thru the roof Freddie!
The 310 is like a himmi from 20 years in the future.
The Royal Enfield looks brilliant... A mix of classic styling and modern reliability! Enjoy 😎
Great video Freddie. Good to see you back road testing bikes.
Thanks John- I’ve been waiting for this one for a long time🙂🏍
Another great video man!
Love your enthusiasm.😬
Weather better than predicted..... Enjoy.
As you say, biking community all shares the one passion. That's why we all like to go to Biker 'Caffs' - you can go on your own and doubtless someone will want to chat.
Perhaps I’ve overlooked the Himalayan ? …. but after another excellent video I think it deserves a second look. Great content as ever. Thank you 🙏
So looking forward to this review! I consider this bike for next to my Kawasaki Z900rs, really love the classic style! Enjoy your time there Freddie.
That’d be a superb pair that’d compliment each other👌🏻🙂🏍🏍
I've never really considered a Enfield but that GT... well just beautiful. Enjoy your travels in Lithuania
The bike at 07:08 has a Reklause Clutch mod on it. Great product, I have 1 in my HD 883, makes bike always in go mode, but you still have to shift gears. Truly automatic bikes are found in various Honda DCT models like CTX, African Twin or Goldwing or most Scooters.
Great looks, I particularly like that colour scheme.
Cheers.
Mate...I think you might end up with another bike in your stable. And we haven't even seen your reviews yet!! I'd like a Meteor because they look...I dunno...cooler...but then it looks like the classic is the one everyone wants. Both are perfect city bikes without a doubt. And sound wicked without any mods. Thanks for the vid guys and love from NZ as always.
I LOVE it!! And you’re spot on- it’s a genuinely great city bike👌🏻
Sending all my best🙂🇳🇿
Excellent video…just enough information and great camera work 👍
Thanks Alan!🙂
12:56......agree. Also, was actually hoping to see that guy take off on his Interceptor demo, so good edit!.........SPOILER ALERT: he's gonna love it, and buy one.
She’s a beauty!
Isn’t she😍🏍
What they did to the continental simply brill! Am thinking of picking up the classic as my first bike. Test first. Soon😜
Looks a great shop
Cool, I hope to see the review..
Great adventure you're having there. What a brilliant customisation they did to the RE. :>)
Great job with the Conti :)
You drooling over the Himalayan reminds me of the Mexican Pot Noodle ad from years ago: "Eet ees dirty and you want eet."
This is going to be really interesting to watch, as I’m from Lithuania:)
Ya big tease! 🤪 Eagerly awaiting the test ride on the Classic.
What a badass bike... I just wanna day in and out
Man, the big bore Continental sounds absolutely wild!
Beautiful
"that's why I like bikes so much, We all speak the same language, doesn't matter what country you're from"... Hope I didn't screw up the quote!
But yes, like music, bikes pull people together no matter where we're from.
Looks like your gonna have some Enfield fun Freddie. Your the only person I’ve ever seen that gets so excited to ride a small displacement bike. But hey small bikes are fun. I would get on that hopped up special . The best two words ever are big bore! And that goes along with big cam. Oh ya the reason that thing sounded like a Harley on steroids, is because I think it was running an S&S muffler and pipes. S&S made in the USA. And your right, bikes are the universal language. A guy from England, is talking to a guy from Lithuania, and a guy from America is commenting about it. We’re all on the same page. If the world only worked like that everything would be cool
I had a desert storm bullet. Loved it it was great apart from the plastic chainguard that broke off and fed in with the chain causing damage.l would be interested in another Enfield though maybe a Himalayan.
Had the SX175 Lambretta many years ago can still remember the plate number ECU 803 E not bad saying it was 1969 when I had it. … love the look of the new RE getting drawn in wanting one my wife thinks I’m losing the plot … you only live once 🇬🇧
Just bought the same one last week 👍🏻
Great content, looking forward to see your channel grow!
I'm making my mark before 60k subs!
I used to live in South East London for over 10 years, seeing familiar locations in your videos is great!
Ooooo that custom GT sounds meaaaannnnnnn
Just got back from my night shift in ED and chuffed to bits this is up !!!!!!!
Delighted you’re happy to see it!🙂
Hi, good video, saludos desde Chile hermano motero Freddie se te ven y trasmites tanta pasión por las motos , se agradece y saludos a Mónica..🇨🇱✌🇬🇧🤜🤛Un abrazo!!.
