Royal Enfield strengthens global presence with introduction of Bullet 350 in Japan

Royal Enfield has introduced its popular models, the Bullet 350 in Japan with a starting price of 694,100 yen which is approximately Rs. 3.83 lakh. The Indian motorcycle manufacturer has extended its global footprint by launching the Bullet 350 model in Japan, after its successful debut in India last year.
The Bullet 350 shares its platform with the new Classic 350, featuring distinct styling elements such as a unique handlebar, single-piece seat, boxier rear fender, and a variety of color options. Despite these differences, the core components like chassis, engine, and body panels remain consistent with the Classic 350 model.
Powering the Bullet 350 is a 349cc, air/oil-cooled, single-cylinder engine, delivering 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm of torque, paired with a five-speed gearbox. The bike’s dual-cradle frame ensures stability, while the 19-18 inch spoke wheel combination, with telescopic forks and dual springs, provides a comfortable riding experience. The Bullet 350 comes with a disc-drum combination, with the option to upgrade to dual discs and dual-channel ABS.
In addition to the Bullet 350, Royal Enfield has also introduced the Himalayan 450 model in Japan, replacing the previous generation Himalayan 411. The Himalayan 450 features a twin-spar frame and the newly developed Sherpa 450 engine, generating 39.4 bhp and 40 Nm of torque. Equipped with a 6-speed gearbox and slipper clutch, the bike offers smooth gear shifts and a range of features such as all-digital center console, Ride-by-Wire technology, switchable dual-channel ABS, all-LED lighting, Bluetooth connectivity, and adjustable seat height.
With the launch of the Bullet 350 and Himalayan 450 in Japan, Royal Enfield continues to expand its global presence and offer a diverse range of motorcycles to customers around the world. The introduction of these models further solidifies the brand’s commitment to providing quality and performance in the international market.
