Prices of all Royal Enfield models have spiked due to a new Supreme Court mandate. The Royal Enfield 350X gets the engine from the Thunderbird 350, which is a 346cc motor that churns 19.8hp and 28Nm of max torque with a five-speed gearbox.
Royal Enfield 350X gets a new handlebar, riding position and seat. Along with the 500X, the X variants also feature tubeless tyres wrapped in new 9-spoke black alloy wheels. The new Thunderbird 350X ABS variant has started reaching dealerships throughout India.
Other models in the Royal Enfield stable to have previously gotten ABS are the Classic 500, Himalayan and the Classic Signals 350.
