Royal Enfield Classic 350

On August 12, Royal Enfield will introduce the redesigned Classic 350 in India. It is anticipated that the modifications will show up as aesthetic improvements, such as fresh paint schemes, potential LED lighting for the headlight, taillights, and indicators, and an updated instrument cluster. Furthermore, the manufacturer might provide a range of variants with differing wheel types and colour options. The bike will be propelled by the well-known 349cc single-cylinder J-series engine, which powers the Bullet 350, Hunter 350, and Meteor 350 as well. The unit puts out 20.2bhp of maximum power at 6,100rpm and 27Nm of peak torque at 4,000rpm.

BSA Gold Star 650

August will also see the BSA brand's Indian debut thanks to Classic Legends, a division of the Mahindra Group. In addition to being available in the UK and Europe, the renowned British company will also introduce the Gold Star retro motorcycle when it arrives in India. An engine weighing 652cc and producing 44.3bhp of peak power and 55Nm of maximum torque powers the BSA Gold Star. The long-stroke motor will be one of the biggest single-cylinder engines available in our country. The bike's design is reminiscent of the initial BSA motorcycles with its teardrop-shaped fuel tank, single-piece seat, and curved fenders. The Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 will face up against the Gold Star in this segment.

New Ola Electric Bike

Bhavish Aggarwal, the CEO of Ola Electric, recently revealed teaser photos of a battery pack contained in a tubular frame, implying the release of a new electric motorcycle. He was also seen test-riding this forthcoming vehicle in another teaser. August 15, Independence Day, is when Ola Electric usually makes its big announcements. On this day, the electric vehicle manufacturer will be launching this new electric motorcycle. According to the teaser, it would be a commuter-oriented, entry-level electric motorcycle with a slim profile and an upright riding position, similar to motorcycles with 100 to 125cc engines.

Long featured on the brand's India site, the Triumph Daytona 660 was originally supposed to debut in April or May this year, but the launch was then postponed. This bike, which debuted in January 2024, is powered by a 660cc inline-triple engine. It comes after the Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660, which are already available in India. With a peak torque of 69Nm at 8,250rpm, the Daytona 660's engine produces 94bhp of maximum power at 11,250rpm. A six-speed gearbox with a torque-assist clutch is mated to the engine. It is anticipated that the British bikemaker will now introduce the Daytona 660 this month.
