The bike continues to use a sturdy steel frame, now upgraded to the J-series chassis, which improves stability and ride comfort.

20.2 bhp of power at 6100 rpm

The updated chassis has transformed the riding experience. The suspension setup – telescopic front forks and twin rear shocks – soaks up road bumps with ease. Whether you’re gliding through city traffic or cruising on highways, the Bullet 350 is more stable and composed.
Single-channel ABS (on the base variant) with front disc brakes offers good stopping power. Higher variants get dual-channel ABS for added safety.
