Royal Enfield Classic 350 Gorkha Edition: Design
Design-wise, the Gorkha Edition is identical to the standard Classic 350. But what it gets is a new colour scheme. It is matte green, a bit reminiscent of the Battle Green colour scheme that is sold abroad, but lighter. It is inspired by the Gorkha Regiment, and so it is called the Gorkha Green.
There is also a “Classic 350 Gorkha Edition" decal on the fuel tank along with a white “Royal Enfield" badging. There is also a bespoke insignia featuring the legendary crossed Khukris on the side panel.
Apart from this, there are no changes. So, you still get the chrome finish on the engine, the exhaust and on the spoked rims as well. For reference, there are a few variants of the Classic 350 that get alloy wheels and blacked-out rims as well.
