The Royal Enfield Interceptor 350 has a top speed of ~130 km/h (estimated), produces ~20.2 hp and weighs ~195 kg. Motoryk rates it 7/10.
Der Royal Enfield Interceptor 350 ist kein gut dokumentiertes oder allgemein anerkanntes eigenständiges Modell in der modernen Produktpalette von Royal Enfield — das prominentere Modell ist der Interceptor 650, der 2018 auf den Markt gebracht wurde. Royal Enfield produzierte in den 1960er und 70er Jahren klassische Motorräder der Marke „Interceptor“ als Zwillinge mit größerem Hubraum. Bei einer 350-cm3-Variante unter genau diesem Namen kann es sich um eine regionale Variante oder eine Konzeptvariante handeln. Die folgenden Spezifikationen sind beste Schätzungen, die auf der 350-cm3-Plattform von Royal Enfield (Meteor 350/Hunter 350-Familie) basieren.

Was Käufer wissen sollten
Simple, Proven Engine
The 349cc single-cylinder engine is mechanically straightforward, making it easy and affordable to maintain. Its long-stroke design prioritizes low-end torque over high revving, which reduces wear and improves long-term reliability.
Watch for Oil Leaks
Some owners report minor oil seepage around the engine gaskets, particularly on early production models. Inspect the engine casing carefully during a pre-purchase check, as this is a known issue worth negotiating on.
Strong Resale Value
Royal Enfield bikes hold their value well in the Indian and Southeast Asian markets due to strong brand loyalty and high demand. The Interceptor 350 benefits from this reputation, making it a relatively safe used-bike investment.
Generationen und Spezifikationen nach Jahr
Der in Indien gebaute Interceptor 350-Einzylinder wurde unter der Lizenz von Enfield India für den Inlandsmarkt eingeführt.
"Ehrliches, bescheidenes Arbeitstier, geboren, bevor Indiens Straßen besser wurden."
Ich habe fast 8.000 Kilometer mit einer 72er Interceptor 350 durch UP und Rajasthan zurückgelegt, und es ist ein Fahrrad, das Geduld erfordert, bevor es etwas zurückgibt. Das OHV-Single zieht mit echtem Low-End-Grunzen ab etwa 2.500 U/min — das Fahren in der Stadt ist entspannt, ohne Eile, und die schmalen Profilgewinde lassen sich für eine 175 kg schwere Maschine überraschend gut fahren. Aber wenn Sie 90 km/h überschreiten, werden die Vibrationen durch die Fußrasten und Lenker zu einem echten Gespräch — Ihre Hände werden auf einer zweistündigen Autobahnstrecke taub, kein Argument. Elektrische Gremlins sind eine Tatsache, kein Gerücht: Ich habe die Lucas-Magnetkontaktpunkte in einer Saison zweimal ausgetauscht, und das Öl tropft aus den Dichtungen der Stößelstange, und das Öl tropft mit einer Art von Resignation.

Bewertung von gebrauchten Käufern
"Charming, affordable retro that rewards patient, relaxed riders completely."
$3,500-$5,500 usedThe Interceptor 350 is Royal Enfield's entry-level retro twin, and honestly it punches above its weight for what you're paying used. The 349cc parallel twin is genuinely charming — smooth enough, with a pleasing burble that doesn't sound fake or engineered. Ergonomics are upright and comfortable for city riding and weekend blasts, though highway stretches above 70mph get tiresome fast. It's not a speed machine, and you need to make peace with that early. Used examples tend to be well-kept because most owners baby these things. Check for oil leaks around the engine casing — early units had minor weeping issues. Electrics are basic but reliable if maintained. The suspension is soft, which suits relaxed riding but wobbles under aggressive cornering. Spares are affordable and increasingly available, which matters when something eventually needs attention. As a second bike or genuine first proper motorcycle, it makes a compelling case.
