Royal Enfield has launched the Goan Classic 350, a bobber-inspired motorcycle that is inspired by the ‘70s and ‘80s iconic Goan moto-culture.

Powered by Royal Enfield’s popular 349 cc air-oil cooled, single-cylinder engine, the Goan Classic produces 20.2 bhp at 6,100 rpm and 27 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. Staying true to the bobber style, the Goan Classic 350 features chopped fenders, mid-ape handlebars, floating rider seat and whitewall tyres on tubeless spoke wheels. The Goan Classic 350 also features bolt-on arrangement pillion seat to switch between single and dual seat configurations and comes with a range of bobber-inspired Genuine Motorcycle Accessories (GMAs) including a custom rider seat, handlebar grips, bar-end mirrors, touring screen, touring handlebar, deluxe foot pegs and foot control rubbers.

The Goan Classic 350 is built on a twin downtube spine frame and comes with telescopic front suspension with 41 mm forks and twin rear shock absorbers, along with dual-channel ABS with 300 mm front and 270 mm rear disc brakes. The dashboard features a gear position indicator and Tripper navigation pod, while a USB Type-C charging port ensures connectivity. The Goan Classic is available in three single-toned colour options (Shack Black, Purple Haze and Trip Teal) and one double-toned option (Rave Red). The single-toned colour variants are priced at INR 235,000 (ex-showroom Chennai), while the double-toned option is priced at INR 238,000 (ex-showroom Chennai).

Siddhartha Lal, Managing Director – Eicher Motors Ltd, said, “The Goan Classic is a heartfelt tribute to the spirit of freedom and individuality that Royal Enfield has championed for decades. To me, this motorcycle is an embodiment of the cool, laid-back Goan moto-culture, and Royal Enfield’s passion to build motorcycles that are more than just machines, and are a means to self-discovery and expression. This motorcycle feels right at home, not just on the streets of Goa but brings the relaxed and easy Goan vibe to free-spirited and freewheeling riders everywhere.” 

B Govindarajan, CEO, Royal Enfield, said, “Rooted in custom bobber culture, the Goan Classic is a beautiful fusion of classic design and modern engineering. From the low-slung silhouette and the single floating rider seat, the contours and ergonomics, and the dazzling kaleidoscope of colourways, the Goan Classic has a very bohemian and free-spirited vibe combined with relaxed and comfortable riding manners. This is a motorcycle for those who ride not just to get from place to place, but to live and experience every moment with authenticity."
