1986 Enfield 350 Bullet Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Enfield's touring motorcycle lineup, the 1986 Enfield 350 Bullet pairs a 346 cc (21.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 17 HP (12.4 kW) at 5,620 rpm while maximum torque reaches 28 Nm (20.7 lb-ft) at 4,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 49.1 HP per liter and a 1,620 rpm working window between peak torque (4,000 rpm) and peak power (5,620 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the 350 Bullet measures 170 kg (375 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1 HP/kg (10 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,370 mm (53.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13.5-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 110 km/h (68 mph).
