The Electra will continue to be sold, however, it is now moved into Royal Enfield's 'Standard Street' category. Royal Enfield has stopped using the Electra badge and will offer customers the Bullet 350 with Electric Start feature as a convenience option.

Now, Bullet 350 will be available with drum or disc brake option, both models can be delivered with or without Electric Starting feature. Royal Enfield will now offer customers identical bikes, which do not feature the Electra badging, which some believed to devalue the motorcycle.

The Bullet 350 will now be available in five exciting colour options. An all-black, black with chrome, silver, maroon, and blue. Unfortunately, the all-black colour option in Bullet 350 is reserved for the model without electric start and drum brake setup.
