2026 Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350 Launched: Now Features Assist & Slipper Clutch

Royal Enfield has announced the release of the 2026 edition Goan Classic 350, introducing mechanical and utility updates to its bobber-styled motorcycle. The latest iteration of the 350cc platform focuses on improving transmission feel and charging efficiency while maintaining its established retro-custom aesthetic.

The updated Goan Classic 350 enters the market with a starting price of ₹2,19,787 (ex-showroom).


Mechanical and Functional Updates

The primary technical addition to the 2026 model is the assist-and-slipper clutch. This system is designed to provide a lighter feel at the clutch lever and prevent rear-wheel hopping or loss of traction during aggressive downshifts.

On the technology front, the motorcycle’s existing USB Type-C charging port has been upgraded. The new hardware supports faster charging protocols, allowing riders to maintain device power more effectively during longer transit.

Engine Performance and Specifications

The motorcycle continues to utilise Royal Enfield’s J-series engine platform. The 349cc air-oil-cooled, single-cylinder engine delivers a linear power curve suited for relaxed urban and highway cruising.

  • Maximum Power: 20.2 bhp at 6,100 rpm.
  • Peak Torque: 27 Nm at 4,000 rpm.
  • Transmission: 5-speed gearbox.

Design and Chassis Details

The Goan Classic 350 retains the hardware that distinguishes it from the standard Classic 350, emphasizing a factory-custom bobber look.

  • Wheels: Whitewall edge-type aluminium tubeless spoke wheels.
  • Ergonomics: Mid-ape hanger handlebars and a floating rider seat designed for long-distance comfort.
  • Styling: Signature chopper-style fenders and a slash-cut exhaust system.

Variants and India Pricing

The 2026 edition is available across authorized stores in India with pricing tiered based on color options:
