Royal Enfield has unveiled the new ‘Battalion Black’ variant of the iconic Bullet 350, priced at ₹1.75 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). This variant pays homage to the classic design elements that made the Bullet a staple among motorcycle enthusiasts. The ‘Battalion Black’ features the signature gold pinstriping, a traditional bench seat, and prominent badges on the side panels, reminiscent of the original Bullet models.
The motorcycle is powered by a 349 cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine, delivering 20.2 hp at 6,100 rpm and 27 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. This engine is mated to a 5-speed gearbox, ensuring a smooth riding experience. The Bullet Battalion Black is equipped with a 300 mm front disc brake and a 153 mm drum brake at the rear, complete with single-channel ABS for enhanced safety.
In addition to its powerful engine, the Bullet 350’s design is complemented by chrome rims with spoke wheels, further enhancing its retro aesthetic. The revival of the old taillamp design adds to its nostalgic charm.
Positioned above the military variant, the Bullet 350 competes with other popular models, including the Honda CB350, Jawa 350, and the recently updated Classic 350, catering to riders seeking both style and performance.
