Royal Enfield Hunter 350 vs rivals: Comparing pricing and specifications
₹
1.35 lakh and
₹
1.73 lakh (ex-showroom), offering a strong value proposition.
Honda's CB350RS is a sportier version of the CB350 platform, designed to appeal to younger riders. It features shortened mudguards, a ribbed seat, an LED headlight, and bright colour options to give it a youthful, dynamic presence. It uses the same 348 cc single-cylinder engine as the standard CB350, tuned to deliver 20.7 bhp and 30 Nm of torque—slightly more than the Hunter 350. However, it sits in a higher price bracket, retailing between
₹
2.16 lakh and
₹
2.19 lakh (ex-showroom). Rumours suggest Honda may be working on a more direct rival to the Hunter, but its arrival isn't expected soon.
If you're after retro charm with modern power, the Triumph Speed T4 is a strong contender. With neo-retro styling and a 399 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine delivering 30.6 bhp and 36 Nm, it offers a more spirited performance compared to the Hunter. The bike also features a solid chassis and a deep, distinct exhaust note. Following a recent price revision, the Speed T4 is now available at
₹
1.99 lakh (ex-showroom), making it an even more compelling alternative in the segment.
The Jawa Forty Two blends vintage aesthetics with modern engineering, making it another retro-themed competitor. It is powered by a 294 cc engine that puts out 27 bhp and 26 Nm, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. With its relaxed ergonomics and engaging dynamics, the Forty Two offers a balanced ride experience. Priced between
₹
1.75 lakh and
₹
2.01 lakh (ex-showroom), it competes closely with the Hunter 350 in both features and pricing.
