The Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350 is the fifth motorcycle based on the J-Series platform and it shares its underpinnings with the Classic 350. However, it gets a host of styling differences including a 100 mm taller ape handlebar, chopped fenders, detachable pillion seat, and tubeless spoke wheels with white-walled tyres.

This also makes it the most accessible motorcycle in the country to get tubeless spoke wheels at the moment. The Goan Classic 350 also gets LED lighting along with adjustable brake and clutch levers, a digital readout as part of the instrument console with a fuel gauge, gear indicator and two trip metres. The RE Goan Classic is available in four colour options – Rave Red, Trip Teal, Purple Haze, and Shack Black.

The Jawa Perak on the other hand has a more subtle charm to its design language. It features a true retro design. The Perak gets a round headlamp, minimalist design and sleek lines. Interestingly, unlike the Goan Classic 350, the Perak is only available in a single colour option – Stealth.
