The bike
Royal Enfield HNTR 350 is a breakthrough model in the history of the Indo-British brand: it remains a motorcycle with lines that wink at vintage but, unlike the various Interceptor, Continental GT, Himalayan which have a classic look, it brings a modern look. She is the House's true modern-classic, which together with Meteor 350 e Classic 350 has brought a new platform to debut. The HNTR 350 in fact has a brand-new single double-cradle steel frame that pairs a 349 cc single-cylinder engine with 20.2 hp at 6,100 rpm and 27 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The chassis is also new: 41 mm telescopic fork and a pair of rear shocks adjustable in preload to 6 positions. Rounding out the equipment is the braking system, which acts on the pair of 17-inch rims with a 300 mm disc at the front and a 270 mm disc at the rear. A lightweight, easy bike but with "grown-up" style, to make even those taking their first steps in the world of motorcycling dream.
The Royal Enfield HNTR 350 has become the perfect base for experimenting with a new kind of customization by Cafe Twin: no revolution, rather a skillful remixing of ingredients to take this bike beyond its predetermined boundaries, transforming it into a fun and agile jumper.
The kit
To change the face, and even a bit of the soul to the HNTR 350 the customizers at Cafe Twin relied on the thick catalog of special parts that has been part of their workshop for years now, without sacrificing a touch of craftsmanship.
