THE BULLET 350 HAS BEEN somewhat of a legend in the world of motorcycles. With the production of the first generation model beginning in 1932, this is one of the oldest motorcycle models in the world with a run spanning 91 years and counting.
For 2023, Royal Enfield have introduced the new Bullet 350 which has been upgraded with the J-platform engine and some other minor tweaks.
In terms of design, the bike stays true to its roots, so you still see the iconic retro silhouette, but one of the main visible differences is that the Bullet 350 now sports a re-designed single-piece seat. At the front, the round headlight unit now misses out on the small hood and the bike also has a slightly re-designed rear end. As you get astride, the new seat is exceptionally comfortable and, given its height of 805 millimetres, it is accessible to shorter riders as well.
Ergonomically, this is similar to the Classic 350 with forwardset foot-pegs but you sit more upright as the handlebar on the Bullet 350 is set higher. With a kerb weight of 195 kilograms, this is a heavy motorcycle but the weight is not felt as much once the bike is on the go.

Ducati Revamp Powerful Multistrada 14 S
At face value, it appears Ducati have only mildly tweaked the Multistrada V4 S for 2025, which is why we arrived in Perugia, Italy, a few hours north of Rome, expecting a couple of easy days on the classy adventure-tourer. However, it quickly became apparent that despite only mildly updating the Multi's familiar looks, beneath the bodywork lies a vast number of updates that Ducati hope will make the bestselling Multi (and best-selling Ducati globally) even more versatile than before
