Rumour: Royal Enfield's 350cc bikes to get dual-channel ABS

Thanks to BHPian SJM1214 for sharing this information with other enthusiasts!

Royal Enfield is likely to introduce dual-channel ABS on its 350cc models. A formal launch is expected on August 27, 2018.

Currently, the company offers the 350cc engine in the Thunderbird, Thunderbird X, Classic 350 and Bullet 350 models. The 346cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine powering these models produces 19.8 BHP @ 5,250 rpm and 28 Nm @ 4,000 rpm.

Besides this, a set of leaked images suggest that Royal Enfield could be planning to launch two new colour options for the Classic range - matte blue and matte beige. These bikes have a single brown leather seat and a serial number on the tank in addition to an orange and green decal. The engine, crankcase and exhaust are finished in black. Similarly, the headlamp bezel, wheel rims and the tail lamp module are also painted black.
