Q. Which is better Meteor 350 or new Classic 350?
Q. Sir I am planning to buy a Royal Enfield signal 350, and I am very much confused about BS 4 & BS 6. Should I wait for BS 6? I am confused regarding vibration issues and mileage of BS VI? Can you guide me regarding this - 2020 Classic 350?
  • Adding to the confusion/list of queries....I am deciding between the Signals 350 and Pegasus 500. Any major changes/improvements that we know of in the BS6 version , making it worth the wait? Also any idea when these BS6 models will be launched?I heard the 500 will be discontinued in the BS6 models.
  • I read that they will keep the kick start as well. However, in all super bikes kick start is not used mostly. Unless you have a challenge to start the Nike. So event without it, RE will be still great
  • Bs6 version will have new motor,fuel injection, OBD etc. mileage will be increased 15 percent

Q. Should I buy Classic 350 BS4 or wait for the BS6 variant? BS6 will be more refined than BS4?
  • You should buy the bs6 variant oviously because in bs6 it has given the new Fuel injected engine and the gear box is also refined..the sound has become a bit less but it is now great
  • BS6 is refined in terms of engine but there is a drop in mileage when compared to bs4 honestly as well as in mid range power delivery this is mainly due to pollution control system i.e.catalytic convverter present in bs6 vehicles
  • If you didnt bought any bike yet then you should go for RE Scram 411, its the amazing bike for both daily use and touring also,

    This bike looking is very nice but not good head light.I think it could have been better.The big problem this bike is it's mileage.Not good mileage in comparison r15.And over pricing bike.But ktm body quality is very good.I hope ktm company will also improve some of these problems.

    Ride quality 

    Really worth the price the ride quality and it's performance it just awesome.The mileage is good in respect to a 125cc motorcycle i really loved it.It has a high seat which causes trouble for short riders like me i am 5.5 ft tall and mostly struggle while taking you turns and at traffic single stop otherwise every thing is fine.Further i could lower the seat height adjusting suspension setup but the service centre told me not to do it as the ktm company has set it by keeping balanced setup any changes in it can make it worse result in accident.I kept it as it though i am struggling but as time passes.I will get accustomed with it and learn.The tricks and techniques to control the bike smoothly.I will recommend any below 5.5 ft height should avoid choosing the ktm bikes.Though below 5.5 ft height guys can drive the bike but it very defficult to cope up.I got a mileage of 40 kmpl on my daily commits.The bike itself is a beast.I love what ever i have got from ktm at the price point neglecting the height factor.I really love it.

  • Royal enfield classic 350 legendary bike- the royal enfield classic 350 is a legendary bike.The latest model of the bike is very good looking with some minor changes from the previous one.There are a lot of things which i like about it.The engine refinement has improved a lot in this new model which was much necessary.Revised ergonomics make it more comfortable for both rider and pillion.New chassis makes it easier to ride in traffic.

  • My most favourite bike- the new royal enfield classic 350 made a fine attempt at dissuading me from riding anything else, And it succeeded to a fair extent, Too.Classic 300 is the important bike of the company.Previously these bikes had vibrations because of old engine.Now royal enfield has done great job by swapping a new non vibrating engine.Which attracts people to purchase the bike.It looks very aggressive and stylish.

    Farhaan few weeks ago
  • Royal enfield classic 350 with some cons- the royal enfield classic 350 is overall a good bike with some cons which can be observed after riding it for some time.As compared with the prices it doesn’t have the top-end performance of the meteor 350.New footpegs foul with your legs in traffic and while parking which is annoying and the thump of the old engine is missing.
