      The Hunter is easy to use and lighter than the Classic 350. After using the Classic for 2 years, I switched to the Hunter, and my experience has been amazing. I really love this bike.

      For long drives, Royal Enfield is the number one bike. The black color looks amazing, and I really like it. It doesn’t cause back pain, and I always enjoy riding it.

      Good comfort very comfortable for long rides and fabulous. The lever and clutch are of good quality, and the ground clearance is better than before. The headlight is an LED bulb, which is also good.
