Back to origins
Royal Enfield has silently introduced three new colour options -Redditch Red, Redditch Green and Redditch Blue- for its Classic 350 model line.
The new paint variants, inspired by 1950s era UK-built motorcycles that were built in Redditch, UK - the birthplace of Royal Enfield motorcycles.

Price
The on-road price of the Redditch series in Delhi is Rs 1,46,093. The motorcycle will be available at an on-road price of Rs 1,57,577 in Mumbai, Rs 1,47,831 in Chennai, Rs 1,55,456 in Bengaluru and Rs 1,49,340 in Hyderabad.
Based on 'J2' model
According to the company, "In the 1950s, Royal Enfield motorcycles were manufactured in its pre-world war era factories in Redditch, a needle-making town located fifteen miles south of Birmingham in UK. The Royal Enfield Classic introduced in 2008 is designed on the lines of the J2 and it is a tribute to the retro look of British motorcycles in the post-World War II era."
Then there is the original Redditch monogram
The Chennai-based company's president Rudratej Singh said, "Apart from the new colours from the 1950s, the 2017 Redditch series will feature the Royal Enfield Redditch monogram, first used in 1939 on the prototype of 125cc 'Royal Baby', a 2-stroke motorcycle. The use of the original monogram makes the series more special as it revives our association with the motorcycles produced out of Redditch (UK) in that era."
Same engine
Mechanically, the motorcycle remains unchanged and continues to be powered by the 350cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine which makes 19bhp power and 28Nm of torque
