Funny thing, my Wife to be & I actually bought a Classic 350 for a hell of a good price used with only 1k miles on it. We have already begun the process of upgrading components to the bike documented in a series i'm calling " Project Royal Enfield" If you're interested check it out ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RTq671F9W7A.html
Perfect review! I used to own a classic 500 but sold it (which i regret now) and i think i am going to buy a classic 350 soon. There is just something about them. Also loving the himalayan.. Currently on a super fast Arpilia but i have more fun on slow enfields. Cheers man!
I would kill to ride a 500 classic. I wish they still made them here in the US. I hear there's a possibility of a 650 Classic but it's a 2 cylinder and imo it kinda takes the quirkiness out of the bike.
@@FoxParasyte the 2 cylinder might be too smooth for a classic. I am a big Single cylinder fan. But i am curious if its really coming. Also excited to see and test the new 450 himalayan next year.
Hi just found your channel great reviews, . I've not long ago perches a new Royal Enfield Hunter 350 for rideing short runs to the nearest town or a dash too the city of Exeter Devon,uk. It's a great bike small in statcher but has the power keep up with motorway traffic @60mph good mileage from the 350 red engine ,i going to change the rear shocks for something better and may be tyers, haveing said that ,Its a Great Bike 🇬🇧👍.
Hey Foxxy, enjoyed this video throughout till the end.. I'm from India and I've seen many American reviews on RE bikes as being severely underpowered.. I can understand that because American roads are wider and bigger.. but your review was different in a way that you pointed out all the reasons why many Indians buy it too..I learnt how to ride on a 2014 RE classic and had 4 great years with it.. now I own a dual sport called Xpulse 200 made by another Indian brand , Hero motocorp .. I don't think you can get these in the US but they are fabulous little bikes that gave new life to the dirtbike culture here which was otherwise limited due to huge import taxes on dirtbikes made by Kawasaki and KTM. Happy riding !
Thanks for the video. I have a classic 350 signals desert sand version, I use this as a 2nd bike, for pootling through old villages and country back roads here in the UK. It takes almost no imagination at all that you could be on a 1950s bike. Experiencing a slower enjoyable ride, is to be recommended, without the drawbacks associated with an actual 70 Yr old machine. 👍
Depends on the dealer, i got mine for 4,000 used under 1000 miles with the full service done and engine guards installed. Some dealers i know are charging 800 for set up another 600 for shipping from India. I understand the shipping but set up fees 800 is asinine
Thank you. I guess i'm just one of those smaller channels that youtube rarely ever promotes in the algorithm. It used to bother me honestly. Now it doesn't at all, as long as i enjoy making the content, and people enjoy the videos. I'm happy with the result.
Absolute bargain, a chance to experience motorcycling in a gentle vintage style, without the hassle of maintaining a 50-60year old bike. Just purchased one in the military desert sand colour scheme, for 'pootling through old English villages and country roads, I heve a modern triumph for the everyday stuff, this is my weekend escapism, it's very therapeutic, thank you for the vid. 👍
I actually just bought a 350 of my own a week ago. Absolutely love it despite it's weak engine. Only problem i have with it is the speedometer being wonky at times
@@FoxParasyte they are releasing super meteor 650 here in india this month..hunter 350 must be releasing in usa which was released in india few months ago..
@@FoxParasyte yes in india it is confirmed super meteor 650 will launch this month and there are many testing vehicles leaks available...i have seen some youtuber from uk testing hunter 350..so sooner or later they will also launch in usa...btw subscribed keep growing and keep riding 🤗
@@FoxParasyte RE no longer make a 500 and I have heard that they will release the Hunter in the US. For more info/reliability reports check out NathanthePostman - he runs afleet of REs and has extensive mileage on them, especially the Himis on and off road
Great value the scram at a fraction of the transamerica and why I am looking at it. Thank you for the video. One question how do you treat all that chrome with rust blocker or chrome metal polish i do not know how to mix them
My ‘23 Halcyon green classic is an enjoyable ride; used appropriately it’s been a great bike. Seems to be bulletproof in build quality too. Thumping along at 50mph in the rolling farmlands of N IL and S WI has been a real pleasure. Money well spent.
I'm actually looking into getting a Copper Bronze one. I have 2 other bikes that'll go over 90mph but i want something that i can take on trips around the countryside & lakes. Biggest goal with it is outfitting it with the DNA stage 2 and the full exhaust from hitchcock.
When the Stormbreaker becomes widely available it is going to blow the Interceptor off the face of the planet. Nothing is more customizable than a Sportster hop-up parts are plentiful the bike itself is phenomenally reliable. The engine being old-school is infinitely rebuildable. I have had my carbureted solid mount version for 23 years and 400,000 miles on the original engine. Another one of Harley-Davidsons colossal corporate mistakes was canceling the evolution Sportster even after they Jack the price up to ridiculous levels it was still their best-selling bike so they simply decided just to kill it. Now thousands of people around the world will be introduced to the pleasure of having an evolution Sportster. Royal Enfield sells motorcycles primarily for the Indian market. The 350 single for the lower end of the market and the 650 twin is its Flagship bike. Stormbreaker 12:00 is going to knock its socks off.
The Sportster is not an old farts penis extension. It is not a girl's bike or a path to the big twin. It's a bike unto itself. It's a bike for everyone and you can turn it into anything you want. Used low mileage late models for bargain prices. A RE 650 is no match for a 1200 Stormbreaker. I have had my Sportster for 25 years and 400,000 miles on the original engine. Let's see where your RE 350 is in 25 years.@@leebrewer7394
Great first ride reviews. I have an Interceptor as well! Props to Honda for their Interceptor in the US, but INT650 never comes out of my mouth when asked what kind of bike it is! Cheers!
