For all those Royal Enfield fans who love the chrome look on an Enfield there might be something to look forward to as a Chrome version of their Classic might be on the way.


The technical specifications of the new version will be the same as the current Classic, with a 499cc engine producing the power of 27.2 horses and 41.3Nm of torque.



Though the bike may not undergo any major changes a few minor changes will be seen. The overall length of the new Classic Chrome will see an increase of 30mm over the former variant numbering to 2160mm. Unlike the old Classic which had 19” tyres in the front the new Chrome will see 18” tyres both in the front as well as the rear. In the rear, the 120/80 18” rubber will be replaced by 110/80 profiled 18” tyres.

Other minor changes would include one millimeter reduction in the rear drum brake with a 152mm drum in the new variant as opposed to the 153mm in the old Classic and a one litre increase in the fuel tank capacity.



The official declaration of the launch of the new Classic is yet to reach the ZigWheels office but for all those who love the Classic and would love to see it in chrome, its launch may probably not be too far off.
