Royal Enfield goes on the hunt 

Royal Enfield has always been synonymous with heritage. Bikes like the Classic 350 and the iconic Bullet 350 have carved their way into the psyche of the customer. Then came the Himalayan which stamped the brand’s authority in the ADV category. To top it all the company launched the 650cc Twins. So quite simply, Royal Enfield is trying to make sure that it is present in every genre of motorcycling possible. Continuing on this thought comes the Royal Enfield Hunter 350, which has the task of luring in those who are not into all the heritage malarkey. The Royal Enfield Hunter 350 then has a tough task on its shoulders.
