Reviews of Royal Enfield Hunter 350

My personal experience
Variant - metro dapper
Color - white
Onroad price - 199k ( 163k bike + 15k insurance + 20k rto )
Accesories bought - engine guard small
My height - 5'11
My weight - 85
So, first of all, I never owned a royal enfield before so when I planned on buying a retro-style bike I finalized 3 bikes: hunter 350, classic 350, tvs ronin. I took a test ride of all 3 bikes and felt classic but a bit heavy because i mostly ride the bike in cities so took it out of consideration. Then, I really really felt tvs ronin was a solid bike with tons of features and 100% value for money but one thing that hassled me which its brand value. If I want to sell ronin in the future to buy a new bike then the resale value felt low so I considered hunter 350 and it felt straightforward to drive too.. Some people said this bike is for guys who are short like 5'3 - 5'7 range but for my height of 5'11 I feel no problem and the bike suits me really well to me: no leg pains or cramps. So anyways talking about my driving experience with the hunter, I was getting around 29,30 mileage per liter till the first service then I got around 33 after the first service. The 350cc engine is so so so good. It's very smooth and the pickup it gives in 4th gear is just wow. The exhaust sound in the first 2 gears is very nice and it's good in the top gear too but we miss the dug dug sound which classic gives better.. No complaints though fully satisfied. Then coming to accesories. I faced a major major issue which is foot rest for ladies. When my mom or someone aged wants to sit on the bike with a saree then there is no footrest available officially from the royal enfield side and even no 3rd party footrests found so far.. Have to look for one eventually.. It has stiff suspension.. As a rider, I don't feel any hardness but pillions said they feel the thump at speed breakers. The seat is soft though .. I like the braking very much.. It's responsive but the clutch feels a little hard especially when we use it multiple times in traffic the fingers will start cramping.. It's subjective anyways if you are strong then you may not feel it. Coming to tyres and grip, yes it corners well. It's not a sports bike but it has a very very good grip while leaning at corners. The headlight is great at night too. The indicators are working fine. I see people complaining about engine heating issues but I don't see any such issues.. Sometimes slight heat but it's normal on every bike. Also, I see many people complaining about a number of fiber parts, and panels used in the hunter but hey, retro variant starts at 149k and metro at 163k. Do you really want to complain about fiber parts at this price? giving a 350cc engine for 150k is really good. Don't expect wonders at the price by comparing this bike with honda highness, meteor, classic etc.. Those bikes cost 50k more. If royal enfield puts 50k more into hunter then hunter will also have all metal panels but making affordable city commuters is their priority and I feel they did their job pretty well and this is a decent bike from royal enfield.

About the Reviewer

I have recently purchased Hunter 350 Rebel Red. The bike was working fine until the third service. After the third service, there is a scratching noise coming from the rear brake caliper at slow speeds. This issue became major at 12500 kms. I took my bike to the dealership and they repaired the brake caliper as it was scratching the disc which was creating the noise. After driving 10 more kms, the same issue is coming with the noise. The dealership's response is very poor. They take these issues very lightly and say that these are common issues with new models.

hello there, I'm an owner of Metro variant rebel blue.
I just completed 1st service at 500km and I just faced negative behavior & service by RE workshop at another point bike is really good to go for a ride. Compared to other RE bikes it has less vibration and pick-up is soo good. Caution: Hunter is not for overspeeding if you're a bike traveler, that's a perfect bike for a long tour.

About the Reviewer

I booked the hunter 350 on the 9th of august 2022 and gave it 5 stars purely based on looks, specifications, and buying experience.
Booked it at the royal enfield, worli, Mumbai showroom. I thought it would take more than an hour but the whole process without a test ride was done in 45 minutes, as of now very happy with the customer service.

About the Reviewer

Everything is great..Nice performance nice torque.. Nice looks but while buying I missed the most important aspect of practicality and for that, I regret it whenever I cross a speed breaker..At the time of paying money, I didn't check its ground clearance if I had checked I would definitely go for another bike. Whenever I ride it with a pillion it gets bumped on almost every speed breaker and I feel pity for myself.
I would suggest every one of you.. Don't go by the name and design of the bike, it's okay to like but consider practicality before you buy.

About the Reviewer

This was my first time buying a royal enfield and I was never a fan of these retro-looking bikes I always dreamt that I would be owing a sport bike but when i looked at hunter and took its test drive i just fell in love. Its looks, its power, its handle everything was just awesome. Then I booked the bike and got delivered in 10 days. When i took the bike to my home and my dad took the ride he was loving the bike and from that day my father haven't touched his bike.
As a first-time enfield buyer, my buying experience was very good at re. I have ridden this bike over 1000 km now and i can say its very good for daily computer purposes. The braking is really good. The engine is great torque is well controlled powerful yet not too much. And the exhaust note is amazing. It has original re-thumping and loud sound.
And talking about the looks of this bike... It's a real head turner i own the rebel blue colour and its very much an attention seeker. Some people stopped me while driving asking about the bike.
These was all the pros of the bike...
There are some cons as well...
Such as the fuel gauge is very bad on this one it shows 4 bar directly from 1 bar on refill of just 300rs.
Headlights and indicators should be led. Its not bad though but feels good to got led after spending that much money.
The rear tyre throw a lot of mud upto the rear seat, in rain had to wash it every 3rd day.
The Clutch is a traditional wet multi-plate clutch that feels too heavy slipper clutch would be better.
Had done the first service which cost me 1700 approx.
After all this bike is a complete package if you are looking for a sportier bike with a mix of retro styling.

2.Also,Riding experience of this bike is mind blowing.i got first time ride on this bike for about 50 kms.it was very smooth ride with easily controllable speed.i use this bike for daily commute.i used to go for office work and leisure purposes only by this bike.this bike has become so much attached to me,that i had made it my bestie.i have been using this bike since 7 years,but now also,it looks new and standard.i always get an awesome ride on this bike.Also,not many months before,I had visited to Mysore,with colleagues for group picnic .And,i got no difficulties in reaching to destination by this bike.i really appreciate the durability of this awesome one.i had given its specifications below:
Displacement- 349.34 cc
Engine Type- Single cylinder, 4 stroke, SOHC Engine
No. of Cylinders-1

Rear Brake-Disc
Fuel Capacity -13 L
Body Type-Cruiser Bikes
Gear Box - 5 speed
Fuel gauge- digital
Kerb weight -181 kg
And provided with low fuel indicator and low battery indicator,with front halogen light.
3.Seeing its look ,we can get standard and modern handles ,and trendy outer body.the seat provided in it ,is very comfortable and broad to sit. The tyres are very durable and there is very chance of punctures.it has outer non- metallic cover above silencer ,to avoid injury caused by legs getting touched in it.since,in normal bikes ,the silencers are of metals ,which when get touched by legs,causes burning in the skin.Also,the backlight and rear light are also non dispersable,so that it can be seen from long distance also.The performance of this bike,as same as its look .gives smooth rides,without any roughness.
4.First time ,when I got this bike .i did servicing after completing 3000 kms, second at 6000 kms and third at 9000 kms,and there after , every 4-5 years.you can do it's servicing as per your daily rides.but ,the first three regular servicing is must.this bike mainly doesn't cost me anything in repairing engine parts or others,till now.cost expenses only are of petrol consumed by it,since ,i regularly have more riding than normal ,hence it consumes more petrol.but when used normal ,there is not much expense in petrol.all it's engine and body parts are durable and long lasting,this ,you only need to maintain its servicing in every 4-5 years, and cleaning.At all,it's maintenance and servicing is affordable.
5.Pros—It is a perfect roadster,with retro designs and also shows unique road presence.
It is light weight and have dynamic range with better hardware.
It contains triple navigation system,semi -digital instrument cluster and many more features.
Additionally, containing more features like -better colour options,alloy wheels,good spoked wheels.
Cons—its outer body is very complex looking,because of its varying parts.
Also,it sometimes gives vibrations at higher speeds.vibration can be felt in handle bars and rear view mirrors.
But overall,i would surely suggest you this bike,if you want to long rides or for daily commutes.

About the Reviewer

1. Buying experience was easy, but there was a waiting period of almost 30 days for me
2. Riding exp: I have ridden this bike for more than 2k kms including long rides, and city everywhere. Its super fun to ride
City use: its too easy to ride in the city, it's very agile and the wide handlebar helps me to glide in the traffic ( I'm a blore guy) so this is imp for me also. And I also got good mileage in the city ~35
Long rides: even I went on 2 long rides on this bike, one is 450 kms in a single day, that was before the first service so I had ridden it a bit slowly ~60kmph , it was comfortable. I mentioned this because since I was traveling at less speed so I will be on the bike for a longer period of time, so if it is comfortable means we can easily use this for long tours.
Next, I went on a ride for 3 days almost 900kms , it was comfortable for me, (previously i had a classic 350 , and went for many rides ) , so I did not miss classic 350 anywhere.
Power: torque is too good, it helps in city a lot.
The top speed for me is ~125kmph. But it is very comfortable to ride in ~100kmph.
Cons :
let's talk about ground clearance, so for me when I apply full back break sometime when we are in a kinda slope area my shoe's front part kind of touches the ground, but this happened once or twice, so I cannot be sure on this. But none of the bike parts touched the ground in any kind of humps or anything. I will update you about this if I have any clarity about this.
Spares: all the accessories are too costly, like the backrest and other things. For sump guards only they are charging in thousands, we can also opt for some other brand products.

I bought a Royal Enfield Hunter 350 on 31st Oct 2022 and after 1st service, my bike engine noise totally changed and I'm getting only 28kmpl. This bike is not recommended for city driving. Worst service. Before purchase, the sales team said the bike's mileage will be 35kmpl to 40kmpl. But, now the service team and re-plant team said 25kmpl to 30kmpl.

2.Also,Riding experience of this bike is mind blowing.i got first time ride on this bike for about 50 kms.it was very smooth ride with easily controllable speed.i use this bike for daily commute.i used to go for office work and leisure purposes only by this bike.this bike has become so much attached to me,that i had made it my bestie.i have been using this bike since 7 years,but now also,it looks new and standard.i always get an awesome ride on this bike.Also,not many months before,I had visited to Mysore,with colleagues for group picnic .And,i got no difficulties in reaching to destination by this bike.i really appreciate the durability of this awesome one.i had given its specifications below:

3.Seeing its look ,we can get standard and modern handles ,and trendy outer body.the seat provided in it ,is very comfortable and broad to sit. The tyres are very durable and there is very chance of punctures.it has outer non- metallic cover above silencer ,to avoid injury caused by legs getting touched in it.since,in normal bikes ,the silencers are of metals ,which when get touched by legs,causes burning in the skin.Also,the backlight and rear light are also non dispersable,so that it can be seen from long distance also.The performance of this bike,as same as its look .gives smooth rides,without any roughness.
4.First time ,when I got this bike .i did servicing after completing 3000 kms, second at 6000 kms and third at 9000 kms,and there after , every 4-5 years.you can do it's servicing as per your daily rides.but ,the first three regular servicing is must.this bike mainly doesn't cost me anything in repairing engine parts or others,till now.cost expenses only are of petrol consumed by it,since ,i regularly have more riding than normal ,hence it consumes more petrol.but when used normal ,there is not much expense in petrol.all it's engine and body parts are durable and long lasting,this ,you only need to maintain its servicing in every 4-5 years, and cleaning.At all,it's maintenance and servicing is affordable.
5.Pros—It is a perfect roadster,with retro designs and also shows unique road presence.
It is light weight and have dynamic range with better hardware.
It contains triple navigation system,semi -digital instrument cluster and many more features.
Additionally, containing more features like -better colour options,alloy wheels,good spoked wheels.
Cons—its outer body is very complex looking,because of its varying parts.
Also,it sometimes gives vibrations at higher speeds.vibration can be felt in handle bars and rear view mirrors.
But overall,i would surely suggest you this bike,if you want to long rides or for daily commutes.

About the Reviewer

1. Buying experience was easy, but there was a waiting period of almost 30 days for me
2. Riding exp: I have ridden this bike for more than 2k kms including long rides, and city everywhere. Its super fun to ride
City use: its too easy to ride in the city, it's very agile and the wide handlebar helps me to glide in the traffic ( I'm a blore guy) so this is imp for me also. And I also got good mileage in the city ~35
Long rides: even I went on 2 long rides on this bike, one is 450 kms in a single day, that was before the first service so I had ridden it a bit slowly ~60kmph , it was comfortable. I mentioned this because since I was traveling at less speed so I will be on the bike for a longer period of time, so if it is comfortable means we can easily use this for long tours.
Next, I went on a ride for 3 days almost 900kms , it was comfortable for me, (previously i had a classic 350 , and went for many rides ) , so I did not miss classic 350 anywhere.
Power: torque is too good, it helps in city a lot.
The top speed for me is ~125kmph. But it is very comfortable to ride in ~100kmph.
Cons :
let's talk about ground clearance, so for me when I apply full back break sometime when we are in a kinda slope area my shoe's front part kind of touches the ground, but this happened once or twice, so I cannot be sure on this. But none of the bike parts touched the ground in any kind of humps or anything. I will update you about this if I have any clarity about this.
Spares: all the accessories are too costly, like the backrest and other things. For sump guards only they are charging in thousands, we can also opt for some other brand products.

I bought a Royal Enfield Hunter 350 on 31st Oct 2022 and after 1st service, my bike engine noise totally changed and I'm getting only 28kmpl. This bike is not recommended for city driving. Worst service. Before purchase, the sales team said the bike's mileage will be 35kmpl to 40kmpl. But, now the service team and re-plant team said 25kmpl to 30kmpl.
