There have been rumors of a new 350cc from Royal Enfield for a long time, now the J1D is scheduled to come onto the market in April 2020.
It is now believed that Royal Enfield has two models in the pipeline. The 350cc should be released under the name Meteor and replace the Thunderbird. In addition, there are more and more references from various sources to a model called J1D. It is said to be based on a similar platform or powered by a similar engine, which doesn’t really say anything, but nothing more is known yet.
Some suspect a smaller version of the Himalayas behind it. Royal Enfield still has some model names in the pipeline, whose trademark rights they have secured, but no corresponding models have yet been presented. These include the names Hunter, Sherpa, Roadster and Flying Flea.
It will be interesting to see what will come soon. – So far it is still unclear whether the models will also be published outside of the Asian market.
