Royal Enfield Hunter 350 to get new LED headlamp, rear shocks

Royal Enfield is currently testing an updated version of the Hunter 350. The latest spy images suggest that the bike will receive significant updates, including a new headlamp and revised suspension.

As you can see, the test bike is sporting a circular LED headlamp, which is now a common feature across the entire Royal Enfield lineup.

Apart from that, one of the major upgrades that Hunter 350 will receive is in the suspension department. The test bike appears to be equipped with different rear shock absorbers. Unlike the current model, which uses linear springs, the updated bike is likely to get progressive springs.

That being said, the updated Hunter 350 is expected to carry forward the same 349cc single-cylinder engine as the current model. This unit delivers 20 BHP and 27 Nm and is paired with a 5-speed gearbox.

I hope that the new rear suspension is more pliant and can be fitted to older models as well.

As an owner of Hunter 2022 model, it's a great addition to have LED lights and better rear suspension setup. Updating rear suspension is a great addition which will make the pillion rider comfortable during long rides. I am looking forward to updating my headlights once stock is available at showroom.

Have owned Hunter 350 and also ridden multiple bikes with Royal Enfield LED headlamps - bikes like the Himalayan, Guerrilla 450 etc.

The halogens on the Hunter are MUCH better than the LED candlelights on these new generation Royal Enfield bikes. The only plus point for these lights are the looks, they just don't have the brightness or spread to be on any use on the road.

Bring back orange lights! Even if it is orange LEDs

When can we expect for it to be available in showrooms? I am planning to buy it but I have decided to wait after seeing this news.
