After the Hunter 350, Royal Enfield plans on bringing more bikes to the Indian market. Shotgun 650, and Super Meteor 650 among others will be launched by the company in the near future.

Since, the Hunter 350 will compete with the Honda CB350RS, Jawa 42, and the recently launched TVS Ronin. The motorcycle's price is expected to start around 1.50 lakh (ex-showroom).

In the Indian market, the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 will face tough competition from multiple rivals owing to its neo-retro design. To name a few Honda CB350 RS, the newly launched TVS Ronin, and Jawa Forty-two will be some of its direct rivals.

The reduced weight on the Hunter 350 has been achieved by cutting some weight from the frame, and tyres and using some plastic in the body.

Along with small size comes lighter weight. The Hunter 350 has a weight of 81 Kg, which makes it 10 Kg lighter compared to the Meteor 350. What benefits will it offer? The light weight makes the bike more agile and faster.

Here is another video from one of the shoots of the Royal Enfield Hunter 350.
