Three new colour schemes – Redditch Red, Redditch Green and Redditch Blue – for the Royal Enfield Classic 350 have been introduced for 2017. Called the Redditch Edition, this bike commemorates Enfield’s time during the hey-days of British bike manufacturing in the 1950s.
The Redditch moniker is taken from Royal Enfield’s factory in the town of the same name, 24 km south of Birmingham, England, where the Bullet 500 and 350 were made. The factory closed down in 1967, and the Royal Enfield name continued on as Enfield India until its takeover by Eicher Motors, with the name being changed to Royal Enfield Motors.
As a current model, the 2017 Royal Enfield 350 Classic features a distinctly “Brit-bike” retro look, using a 350 cc air-cooled single-cylinder aluminium twin-spark SOHC engine that produces 19.8 hp at 5,250 rpm and 28 Nm torque at 4,000 rpm. The engine drives a five-speed gearbox, and uses a 29 mm CV carburettor.
Weighing in at 187 kg wet, the Classic 350 uses a single, two-piston hydraulic caliper brake in front, grabbing a 280 mm disc, while the rear uses a 135 mm diameter drum. Having ridden a Royal Enfield Classic 500, performance of any Enfield is, shall we say, leisurely.
The 2017 Royal Enfield Classic 350 is listed at an on-the-road price in New Delhi, India, of 1.46 lakh rupees (RM9,637). In Malaysia, Royal Enfield is represented by The Big Bike Shop, which retails the Classic 350 at RM31,272.50, on-the-road.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Price in India is only RM 9,637 but selling in Malysia at RM 31,272.30 more than 3 times. is it rediculous
it’s total bullshit as only cost RM 9.6K in india wherever in this shit country about 3 times higher .
Ridiculous pricing!
hahaha with that price i dont think anybody want to buy
Walaupun saya hanya seorang jurutera mekanikal berdaftar, saya berpendapat bahawa harga motosikal ini berbaloi. Seperti kata pujangga, “alah membeli, menang memakai” dengan erti kata lain, “even though buying it causes allergies, as a consumer you win.” – Faiz Roslan CEng
In bolehland, for rm9,637 you can buy a 150cc japanese branded capcai. Only benelli with a bigger cc can sell @ that price. Not even a british brand from india. Although malaysia has almost similar name for clothes product.
Would have bought one if it is priced below 10k ringgit.
Correct…..ridiculous price…malaysia boleh…what to do
we go to the showroom take a few selfies and come home. that’s all.
Ridiculous price. its a simple machine, but offers incredible ride. loved it while i was based in India on a project. easy to maintain and a joy to ride.
Was so tempted to get one here, but for that price ? OMG !! That’s insane pricing !!
Over RM30k for a 350cc bike…? stupid n ridiculous…!
A KTNS gp 250 using a Kawasaki engine cost less than RM12k. WTF…!
WTF…?! Over RM30k for a 350cc bike…? A KTNs GP250 with a Kawasaki engine only cost RM12K…! Totally ridiculous pricing.
hope mr Shahr will read the comments here…
Why so different in price between India and Malaysia? Malaysians getting money from trees? So unfair if the import tax so high.
If u buy an airline ticket to india,buy one of those bike and ship it here,it still cost u less than 30k.tax included
I would rather hitchhike all the way to India, buy one there and ride it home rather than pay that price in Malaysia. 11,000km totally worth it.
Love this bike, but
Ridiculously priced in Malaysia.
ridiculous price. that much tax ha
Well said guys ,most of our Malaysian ppl love to ride royal Enfield,but the pricing most of us could not effort, hopefully government reconsider on imported taxes, beautiful bike ,
Give me best price
