RE Goan Classic 350 details
The Goan Classic retains the trusted 349cc engine, delivering 20.2hp and 27Nm of torque. The main chassis also remains unchanged and it has a kerb weight of 197kg (2kg heavier than the Classic 350) and a 13-litre fuel tank.
Its design elements include a low-slung bobber stance, single-seat layout, and mini-ape hanger handlebars. The motorcycle comes with an optional pillion seat, which can be mounted at the base of the rider’s seat.
Additionally, Royal Enfield has given the Goan Classic 350 a set of white-wall tyres from Ceat, mounted on spoked rims that support tubeless tyres which is a first in the 350cc segment. The motorcycle also sports a 16-inch rear wheel (down from the 18-inch wheel on the Classic 350), paired with a 19-inch front wheel.
The Goan Classic features metal switch cubes borrowed from Royal Enfield’s premium 650cc range and it will be offered in four striking colour schemes. It has a seat height of 750mm, and a set of forward-set footpegs taken from the Meteor 350. Despite its low stance, Royal Enfield has increased the rear suspension travel to 105mm (up from 90mm on the Classic 350).
