While the Hunter 350 prices went down by up to Rs 15k, the Goan Classic 350 became cheaper by up to Rs 20k. Two of the company’s most popular models namely Classic 350 and Bullet 350 became more economical by up to Rs 19k and Rs 18k, respectively.
“From refreshed favourites like the Hunter 350 and Meteor 350 to timeless icons like the Bullet and Classic, our motorcycles continue to inspire and bring riders closer to the joy of motorcycling. As we are now gearing up to showcase some of our exciting new motorcycles at EICMA and celebrate the spirit of riding with our community at Motoverse, it is going to be truly a special time for us,” added Govindarajan.
