For 2025, Royal Enfield’s Hunter 350 receives some notable changes including new rear suspension units.
Royal enfield Launched the updated Hunter 350 in the inaugural edition of its new Hunterhood Festival. This is the first update for this inexpensive roadster. For 2025, Royal Enfield has made some significant changes and we list all those changes.
Updated Hunter 350 vs 2024 Hunter 350: suspension
One of the most important updates comes as a modified rear suspension. Responding to customers’ response to Hunter’s firm ride, Royal Enfield has changed the linear shocks of the earlier model with progressive units. In the unveiling, the new setup felt soft, but we will reserve the decision on its performance until we can test it on our streets. Interestingly, these new shocks are compatible with existing Hunter 350s, which means that if you choose this, you can fit them on your bike.
Complementing suspension change is a re -designed seat and handler. While the seat retains the profile as before, it now has a separate foam density that claims to be more comfortable than before.
Updated Hunter 350 vs 2024 Hunter 350: Slip/Assist Clutch
Hunter 350 becomes the first J-platform RE to apply a slip/assist clutch, resulting in a fairly light clutch bridge. This is another issue and it should give more rest to the bike to ride inside Chok-e-Block City Traffic.
Updated Hunter 350 vs 2024 Hunter 350: Ground Clearance
Thanks to the new exhaust muffler routing, the ground clearance of Hunter 350 has increased by 10 mm, going from 150 mm to 160 mm. Increased ground withdrawal always welcomes our streets, especially when riding two-ups or with luggage on the ship.
Update Hunter 350 vs 2024 Hunter 350: New Colors
Royal Enfield has expanded the color palette of Hunter 350, with three new paint plans, up to six. Colors are spread over three familiar variants – retro, dapper and rebel
The base retro variant continues with a black shade and spoke wheels. The mid-spec dapper variants get a new Rio white color option. While the Top-Spak Rebel variants now offer two new schemes-ate black with white and gloss red with black.
Updated Hunter 350 vs 2024 Hunter 350: LED Headlight
Another major upgrade is in addition to an LED headlight – which is the same unit seen on every other Royal Enfield except Bullet 350. The base factory variants are still continuing with the Helogen headlight and only the top 2 variants get a new LED unit.
Update Hunter 350 vs 2024 Hunter 350: Price
The pricing for the base retro variants remains unchanged at Rs 1.50 lakh (ex-showroom, Chennai). However, high variants, which achieve most of the new features, are now more expensive by Rs 7,000, with the price of the Dapper at Rs 1.77 lakh and the rebel is priced at Rs 1.82 lakh.
