We’ve ridden the 2023 Bullet 350; Here’s a quick review

Visuals are mostly unchanged | Looks just as macho and retro

New J-platform engine is smooth, torquey and characterful! 90kmph is butter-smooth, 100kmph cruising speed can be done all day long

Handling is neutral and it doesn’t mind even if you hustle it from corner to corner | Very communicative chassis

41mm telescopic fork is nice and plush | The twin shocks though, feel a bit stiff

270mm front disc has a sharp bite but the feedback from the lever could’ve been better

805mm seat height is narrow enough for riders as short as 5’5 to plant their feet comfortably

The Bullet 350 is as characterful as it was & the J-series platform has made it even better with touches of modernity

But the mid-spec Bullet 350 & Classic 350 are only Rs 4,658 apart, while providing the same riding experience

So it all boils down to the sort of styling you want

How has the new J-series platform affected the way the Bullet 350 rides?
