The Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350 stays true to the Classic 350’s roots while incorporating distinct design elements inspired by the bobber style. It features a tall U-shaped handlebar that enhances the bike’s laid-back appeal, and the signature white-walled tires offer a striking, vintage look. What makes the Goan Classic 350 stand out, though, is its exposed rear wheel and detachable pillion seat, emphasizing the solo riding experience that’s characteristic of bobber motorcycles.

The Goan Classic 350 joins a rare class of bobber bikes in India’s mass market, standing beside the Jawa 42 Bobber and Jawa Perak. However, it brings a uniquely practical touch to the bobber style, as the detachable seat provides the option to add a pillion when needed—a thoughtful addition for the Indian market.

At its core, the Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350 carries the brand’s trusted 349cc single-cylinder engine from the J-Series lineup, delivering 20 bhp of power and 27 Nm of peak torque. Paired with a 5-speed gearbox, this engine offers the familiar, robust performance that Royal Enfield fans cherish. While it’s yet to be confirmed if any changes have been made to the chassis, the Goan Classic 350 is expected to provide a refined and stable ride, maintaining that classic thump known to Royal Enfield riders.

Equipped with telescopic front forks and dual rear shocks, the bike is designed to tackle both smooth highways and rugged paths. Its braking setup includes disc brakes on multi-spoke wheels at both ends, with base models potentially featuring a rear drum brake. This mix of classic styling and modern reliability gives the Goan Classic 350 a unique balance that appeals to both traditionalists and modern riders.

Compared to the standard Classic 350, the Goan Classic 350 offers a more relaxed riding posture—a testament to its bobber influence. This relaxed stance is designed to attract those seeking a ride that’s both laid-back and full of character, a motorcycle that invites its riders to sit back, unwind, and let the miles roll by.

With this model, Royal Enfield is crafting a motorcycle experience that blends classic aesthetics with a unique riding character, perfect for anyone looking for style and sophistication on the road.

The Goan Classic 350 will carry over several popular features from the Classic 350, with a few modern upgrades. It is expected to sport an LED headlamp for better night visibility, a single-pod instrument cluster, and Tripper navigation for seamless route guidance. The bike will likely be offered with single and dual-channel ABS options to ensure enhanced braking control.

With the Royal Enfield Classic 350 currently priced between ₹1.93 lakh and ₹2.30 lakh, the Goan Classic 350 is expected to start around ₹2.10 lakh, positioning it as an affordable yet premium choice in the 350cc bobber segment.

The Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350 is more than just a motorcycle; it’s a celebration of style, heritage, and the thrill of open-road riding. With its bobber-inspired design, enhanced comfort, and iconic Royal Enfield thump, the Goan Classic 350 is set to capture the hearts of riders across India.
