Jawa 42 FJ vs Royal Enfield Classic 350

Question 1

Q. Which is the best, Royal Enfield Classic 350 or KTM 200 Duke?

Answer

Ktm duke 200

Answer

Both the bikes are good in their own forte. Royal Enfield Classic 350 is a great bike in fact that RE engineers and designers have maintained the charming DNA of its predecessor but without the niggles. It was very easy for the brand to overdo the iconic Classic 350, but they have managed to find the right balance and the updates have been done only where required. On the other hand, the design update has given the KTM 200 Duke a new lease of life. Also, the fact that the new BS6-compliant motor does not lose out on performance almost makes it feel like a win-win. That said, the substantial hike in price means it is now more expensive than larger motorcycles such as the Suzuki Gixxer 250. However, when it comes to thrills, the KTM 200 Duke delivers it in spades! Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.

Question 2

Q. Which one is good to buy, Royal Enfield Classic 350 or Honda H'ness CB350?

Answer

Royal Enfield Classic 350 is a great bike in fact that RE engineers and designers have maintained the charming DNA of its predecessor but without the niggles. It was very easy for the brand to overdo the iconic Classic 350, but they have managed to find the right balance and the updates have been done only where required. On the other hand, The Honda CB350 is a great option for someone looking for a retro-styled motorcycle with sprightly performance and the legendary reliability of Honda is an additional bonus. So if you’re looking for the above, the CB350 makes better sense. One thing that goes against the Japanese bike is Honda’s strategy of selling it from the Big Wing dealerships only which restricts access to many buyers in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. The Honda CB350 is an impressive bike, but it lacks a bit of soul and character, something that can't be quantified - and something which the Classic 350 has in abundance. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Question 3

Q. Which is better, Royal Enfield Classic 350 or Meteor 350?

Answer

Royal Enfield Classic 350 is a great bike in fact that RE engineers and designers have maintained the charming DNA of its predecessor but without the niggles. It was very easy for the brand to overdo the iconic Classic 350, but they have managed to find the right balance and the updates have been done only where required. On the other hand, the new J Platform motor is a clear step change from the UCE, making the Meteor 350 a far more well-rounded motorcycle than any of the previous 350s. It’s not just the engine, the gearbox feels more grown up too and the bike handles itself and its weight rather well. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Question 4

Q. Which bike should I go for Classic 350 or Himalayan?

Answer

Classic 350's new engine is refined, powerful, and decently frugal. The fit and finish of the bike have improved tremendously, it’s got enough ground clearance to go over pretty much anything our roads can throw at it, and its new suspension does a great job of ironing our bad roads. RE has managed to modernise all the right aspects of the Classic and that too without compromising what the Classic 350 has stood for - an easygoing, old-school British single that doesn’t feel out of place in the 21st century. Himalayan, on the other hand, is the Swiss Army Knife of motorcycles - a capable, versatile, one-size-fits-all motorcycle. If it succeeds to make its way into your shopping list, it’s quite likely that it’s going to be your only motorcycle. And as an only motorcycle, it’s as close to perfect as you can get in this price range. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision for a better understanding of performance and comfort.

Question 5

Q. Which bike to choose, Classic 350 or Dominar 400?

Answer

Classic 350's new suspension does a great job of ironing our bad roads, and it’s got enough ground clearance to go over pretty much anything our roads can throw at it. Classic 350 new engine is refined, powerful, and decently frugal. The fit and finish of the bike have improved tremendously. The Classic 350 finally gets a fuel gauge.
