Jay,Thanks for u r reply.
As suggested :
Electra 5S is your best bet if you want a mix of convenience and safety. Avoid the Classic 350 if you ride a lot on the highway.

I would like to clarify that I will have to ride mostly in the city(Mumbai), then also an electra 5s is best bet. Is there is another reason to avoid Classic 350(UCE).

I wanted to purchase a new RE bullet, but little bit confused. I am focusing on STD 350cc and Electra 5s. Kindly let me know which model of RE is better to purchase whether its STD 350cc or Electra 5s or Classic 350.

Binayak,

Not possible on UCE engine. Possible on the Cast Iron and AVL engines. However, I’d suggest you to stick to the 5 speed gearbox as it is a vast improvement over the 4 speed gearbox in terms of gear ratios and responsiveness. If indeed you want a right side gear shift, that is possible even on the 5 speed gear box by buying a left shift to right shift conversion kit that is sold by Hitchcock motorcycles as well as Royal Enfield USA.

Cheers,

Jay
