Royal Enfield Classic 350 and the Arkansas Pig Trail 

Hi from the UK. Don't worry at all about people thinking your video isn't exciting because you're going too slow - the massive success of the RE 350's proves there's a huge number of riders who DON'T WANT to be tearing round at 90 getting a knee down. Cruising along at this sort of speed along beautiful, gently curving roads looks absolutely great to me and thousands of others. My Classic 350 arrives in two weeks and I can't wait. Check out videos of guys riding the 'North Coast 500' in Scotland - the scenery is just breathtaking.

I recently discovered your channel and have been thoroughly enjoying your RE Classic videos. As I commented on your seat install video, I think we are somewhat kindred spirits. I've been riding for 40+ years, and always had a bent towards larger bikes. Valkyrie, Goldwing, Harley Ultra Classic, VTX 1800, you get the idea. However, I've (re)discovered the fun of smaller bikes. In fact I traded that VTX 1800 for a Honda Monkey. Grinned like an idiot, but I swung too far on the continuum on that one, and traded it for the RE Continental GT (Mr. Clean chrome). It was a nice package, to be sure, but even when I bought that, it was a toss up between that and the VERY comfortable Meteor. My rides on the GT were short-lived. Great for short rides, but it was hard on my middle-aged hips & wrists. Eventually traded it for the Meteor. Loved it, and then the Classic came out. You see where I'm going with this.... 🙂 A few test rides comparing the Meteor and the Classic landed me on the Signals Desert Sand; just like yours. I'm an old soul, and the Classic just fit the bill better than Meteor. Also for me at at 5'7" 210 lbs, I think the Classic edged out the Meteor in handling and comfort. Both, however, are very solid rides. With a 3 yr warranty with roadside assistance, ABS, braided brake lines, center stand, USB port, all at a great price point? Are you kidding me!?? You also mentioned the Harley, and of course the '48 is quite a looker. For me, I tried that brand once. Never again. Lets just say I put lots of miles on their loaner bikes while mine was in the shop. Of all the bikes broken down on the side of the road, what percentage are HD in your neck of the woods? I dunno....yesterday's technology at tomorrow's prices. No thanks. I'll continue to admire them from afar. RE has been around longer, and at least their yesteryear technology is at yesteryear (or at least at a current year) price point (with a 3 yr warranty). You already mention how people gravitate towards your bike. Trust me, I believe you will miss your little mule if you trade her. That trail in this video is a perfect pairing with this bike, too! Anyways, admittedly, I come from a history of already experiencing those larger, faster, heavier bikes. I've made peace with sacrificing torque that rips your arms from their sockets at stop lights, and sacrificing HP to overtake other vehicles on the road. But where I'm at now is a very happy place for me. The Classic has allowed me to re-discover the very aspects of the ride that got me hooked on motorcycling in the first place. If you made it it this far, thanks for taking the time to read it all. Great videos, BTW! Keep up the great work!

Hi, Just came across your feed. Awesome country. I see you ride like me. Enjoyed the trip. I had 2016 RE Classic 350 and enjoyed very much. Progressed to a 2016 RE Himalayan, until being rear ended. Now have a Triumph Street Scrambler 900, Honda VFR800X and a 1975 Yamaha XS 650 Customised to a Triumph TR6C. But miss my REs. Will sell a few and buy a new RE 350 J model Signals version, in Marsh Grey, soon. AUD$8,000 here. Not bad for what you get! Want to go across the water to visit you guys and travel across your lovely country but my partner and family say I am crazy! Never know!

That was a brilliant ride video. I like to see folk out enjoying their bikes on beautiful roads. I've just ordered a classic 350 after selling my Yamaha xsr700. The Enfield might only have 1/3 the horsepower of the Yamaha, but it's just as much fun. And that's what counts. 👍

Did the Pig Trail Monday of this week. Loved it. (Jasper to Ozark (Hwys 7/16/23)) Some of the most beautiful scenery in North America. Thanks for the sandwich recommendation.........you weren't kidding about size!

Thinking about going up in spring to Russellville to visit my dad. Might have to take my classic 350 and take it for a ride through there.

Enjoyed your insight and scenic ride. Well done!

fun road, reminds me of some of the roads in the UK., although they are not so wide, and they drive on the opposite side... seems the Enfield 350 is just perfect for this twisty roads, and its more fun to ride a small bike fast than to ride a large bike slow, enjoy !

Perfect riding conditions. You can't see any of the beautiful scenery dragging a knee. I ride a Goldwing, VTX1800 and a classic Honda CX500, looking at a Royal Enfield as my next bike. The Interceptor was going to be my choice, but the Classic 350 looks and sounds great! After your video, I may go for one of them. The Classic style is unbeatable.

I can hardly wait to get one of these.

Just discovered your channel sir.Very calming video, feels like talking to a friend. I have a RE 500 Standard year 2016 , got it when I was in college. It is an old type RE with carburetor not fuel injection and most of the times I have to use kickstart as battery in old REs are not that good. I also belongs from a place like you are showing in the video , mountains woods and streams. For 5 years I cruised that bike in beautiful valleys and woods. Coast was about 150 kms from my town and there was a mountain range you have to cross to reach beautiful coast and blue sea. We college mates drove to the coast for fun once in a while. Unfortunately during COVID in 2021 I had to shift to a metropolitan and now my bike is eating dirt in garage.

Beautiful bike, and absolutely beautiful scenery! I took the 🐖 trail years ago on my Guzzi...... almost lost it in a curve that was covered with small gravel! Very nice video!

I have a Meteor and this is exactly the the kind of rides I enjoy. Thanks for sharing!

wow...what a ride! beautiful

I have a Harley Davidson Dyna Switchback and a Yamaha TW 200. Now I want to add a Royal Enfield classic 350 to my collection. Same color as yours of course.

Mate ….it was perfect …..g’day from Aussie 🍻

Great video! I just purchased a 2022 classic 350 signals in desert sand, pick it up this weekend! Can't wait to put it to use on similar roads here in Ohio! Keep making these cool videos.

Dude this video was for me. I loved it.

I’ve worked up there haulin rock on the forestry roads turner’s bend makes awesome ham an chees sandwich and bologna sandwich. Cut over on 215 to ORAK great videos I live around Petijean my

Thanks for the video. Looks like a great ride. Own the Honda ADV150 now but thinking about the REborn 350 or new CL500 when built next year.

That Signal is looking good, wish we had a RE dealership in the Little Rock area 😀

Nice ride, nice bike

You have alot more sights in your parts....I do at least have Crowley's Ridge over here in Greene Co. I've been out and about here in Paragould, but my little 350 classic wants to head to the hills.

I have to know where you got those saddle bags! I love the retro feel they give.

Magnifique ✌️

Is that the seat that came standard with your bike? I love it!

Unless you drove through van buren recently, there is someone who has a bike just like this. I looked twice when I saw it thinking it might be you.

Almighty Kabeer

👍✌🇫🇷

You rev that motor way to high. Change up sooner, don’t linger Use the torque!

There's nothing slower than my Yamaha TW 200 and I wouldn't trade it off for nothing.

What type of seat do you have on your bike?

can u plz remove ur sadle bag for a while and then walkaround it..

Your classic misses an heel shifter.

Very dangerous trail ….you barely survived..!
