Many flying speculations were going round over the changes into the classic which generated hype. Finally, the bike was launched and it has not disappointed one bit.

It has a 349-cc, single-cylinder, air-oil cooled motor that generates 20.2 PS and 27 Nm of peak torque while mated to a 5-speed gearbox. The fuel efficiency is claimed to be 36.5 kmpl. Classic is available in dual and single-channel ABS options. It gets a thicker 41 mm telescopic fork, adjustable rear shock absorbers, and larger disc brakes.
From the design perspective, it keeps the hints from its predecessor while also getting a fresher look. The changes are subtle yet the major difference one can find is the introduction of technology with a digital meter.
