Royal Enfield has been testing the Goan Classic 350 for quite some time, but we haven't been shown any official teaser images. Most recently, the company has released the first early preview of the model in question through a video showing its single-cylinder J-series engine. While yet to be officially revealed, priorly leaked information has revealed titbits including the power figure of the 349cc air-cooled single-cylinder J-series engine that will power the Goan Classic 350 – 19.94bhp at 6,100rpm. The engine has a 5-speed gearbox. Riding on a tubular downtube unit and fitted with white-walled tyres, the Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350 will feature a telescopic fork and twin shock absorbers. It will use the same large-diameter discs as the Classic 350 to handle braking duties. Expect the bike to offer a dual-channel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS).

Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350: Styling, Colours
The teaser further suggests vibrant and snazzy colours, including red, greenish-blue, and purple. The 'RE' badging will be slapped onto the centre. Style-wise, the Goan Classic 350 will be a stripped-down bobber bike based on the Classic 350. Spy shots have shown a scooped-out seat, relaxed riding position (with forward-set footpegs), slash-cut exhaust, and tyre-hugging rear fender. A circular LED headlight, teardrop-shaped fuel tank, and fork sleeves will likely be carried over from the Classic 350 roadster. There is a possibility that Royal Enfield may offer both spoked and alloy wheels. If so, the latter will be optional. It is also anticipated that the motorcycle will have a provision to carry a pillion, like the Shotgun 650.
