On August 7, 2022, Royal Enfield formally introduced the brand-new Hunter 350 to the world with a livestreamed event from its launch in Bangkok, Thailand. The newest member of the company’s 350cc trio is meant to appeal to a wide cross-section of motorcyclists, from total newbies to returning riders—and everyone in between. The plan was to roll it out for the Indian market first of all, with the rest of the world to follow in the coming months.
It’s now August 31, 2022—and Royal Enfield just officially announced that the Hunter 350 will be headed to Japan. As a bike with a fascinating retro-modern aesthetic and set of features, this math makes total sense. Unfortunately, full details for the Japanese release haven’t been announced yet, but so far, we know that it’s coming as a 2023 model according to Autoby.
