Just brought about 3 months. Luckily this bike for my wife first bike. It's a bike for beginners and women. But it's quite heavy for ladies bikers. Definitely enjoy riding in traffic route. On highway. Sure termenung sikit. For me. I rather go other bike event for 1st bike. Why I say so. Some people they don't have B full. Price tag bit high. Build quality just on par. Not really good. Not really barai. Current milage is 4+++km. Waiting for 2nd service at repj.
Your filtering had me biting my nails ! I’ve never seen anything like that in Canada. For my use I would like a 500cc single cylinder engine. The nearest big city is two hours away at 110 kmh and I’m not convinced that a 350cc motorcycle could do that comfortably.
These bikes are not built for this purpose. Its a city commuter and will remain a city bike. What you may need is a Royal Enfield 500cc classic or similar. I own one.
@@sreyanshuchaterjee3962 ….. yes. That is why I am a little impatiently waiting for the Scram 450 or a Hunter 450 to make its way to Canada. If I lived in a city I would have a 350cc Hunter in a heartbeat, I think that for city traffic it would be ideal.
Probably wouldn't be too hard to do a 250 version of that engine but I don't think RE would have the volume production to make the production changes worthwhile.
Isnt the Hunter more of a Roadster than a cafe Racer ? I mean if you see the GT650 its more of a cafe racer with large tank aggressive ergos and clip on handl bars
GT650 is in a different class. I’d say their small CC roadster should be the Meteor 350. The Hunter is the closest to the cafe racer style in their entry lineup. But if you wanna argue semantics like is it a true cafe racer without clip ons? is it more of a tracker since it has handlebars? Then that’s up for debate.
Man, here in indonesia i bought this bike almost double the original price about 109ish million IDR or around 6800 something USD due to 250++ cc bike taxes, while in india i heard them sells it around 50 to 60 million IDR or 3700 USD, but still I've no regret whatsoever, i like the fuel efficiency, torque, modern retro design, its basic feature (means less maintenance for a lazy guy like me 😂) ergonomics for daily commuting and at least less heat on my nuts 😅
Has to do with our motorcycle licences here in Malaysia. The more common B2 tops out at 250cc. Anything more will require an upgraded licence which is way more expensive. Which makes the 350cc 20hp engine kind of a neither here nor there.
Yeah i really like the looks of this RE but here in the US, I'd probably want something that can at very least hit 80 or 90 without much fuss. Not that I need to go fast but I think that is needed on the interstates. People speed and drive very recklessly. However, if I don't plan on riding on interstate much, then yeah I'm sure I'd love this RE. I want something I can ride from MS gulf coast to New Orleans. I could take hwy 90 and that would work with the RE. Currently I'm looking at Ninja 400 and Yamaha MT-3, although I'd really like a Harley or something that looks like a Harley.
i find its more fun to go fast with a slow bike than slow with a fast bike...i dont trust RE enough to buy one, id like the cb350 but thats not available here
They could've been one of the best bikes for beginner riders who wanna ride something bigger than a moped. Did they even do a market study on going 350 and not 250?
I think its because of their signature j series engines .. 350 500 cc .. and there will b no 250 or 150 for these otherwise they have to make short stroke engines .. currently their upcoming 450 series will b short to medium stroke engine

For sure this guy will probably crash and get hurt riding like this, i couldnt even finish the video
Yea it’s a fun city bike but you’re not going to enjoy taking it too far. It’s comfy but there’s basically no top end.
exactly my thoughts

I like this Re Hunter 350 😊👍👍👍
A smaller engine? Enfield's 350 is very gentle. If you need something even smaller, I would suggest you ride a bicycle.
Nah I ain’t got the fitness level for that.
He literally said smaller engine because of licence restrictions. Learn to listen instead of trying to be edgy.

Kapcai is the choice 😂
@@Ron.xionzre Malaysia should ditch cc for license and use power instead.

Needs a smaller engine.. never thought id hear that. Here in the US its so incredibly under powered you cant use it on half the roadways.

@@GulfCoastTimtry re continental gt 650 it can ride at 120kmph comfortably
So true bro... Agree with ur opinion
i find its more fun to go fast with a slow bike than slow with a fast bike...i dont trust RE enough to buy one, id like the cb350 but thats not available here
It is perfect for large European metropolises
I have one. I love it but I wish they would do a 650 model
Try the new Shotgun 650.
There is no need to rev it. Just get the feel for where the tourqe is and ride it on the tourqe.
Kalau lah 250cc,maka tak perlu ambil lesen bfull....dan harga jauh lebih murah berbanding 350cc...motor ni bkn utk top speed... 250 sudah mencukupi

Was prob a cost saving measure. They already have this engine on a couple of bikes.

350 is the old standard for singles. From way back in the infancy of motorcycles.
It's a spunky commuter bike, not a cafe racer.
RE will never go below 350cc because its what they known for, higher cc retro bikes.
Never is a strong word. But here’s to hoping.
@@motomento Never is a perfect word, I am seeing the RE from 20 years now. I know it.
