SAFE RIDING TIPS/GUIDELINES
Before operating your new motorcycle, we request
you to carefully read and follow the operating and
maintenance instructions detailed in this manual
for the safety of your own, your motorcycle and
also that of others.
Know and adhere to the rules of the road with
respect to your driving country.
Before starting the motorcycle, check for proper
operation of brakes, clutch, gear shifter, handle
barcontrols, tyre pressures, fuel and oil levels, etc.
Use only genuine Royal Eneld spare parts and
approved accessories. Use of other manufacturer’s
parts may aect the performance of your motor-
cycle and render the motorcycle void of warranty.
Visit your Royal Eneld authorised service centre
for details.
Whenever refueling your motorcycle, please exer-
cise utmost caution and carefully observe the fol-
lowing guidelines.
«Refuel in a well ventilated area with the
engineturned o condition.
«Open the fuel tank cap slowly.
«Switch “OFF” mobile phones and other hand
held electronic devices.
«Do not smoke and please ensure that there are
no open ames or sparks near the motorcycle,
when refueling or servicing the fuel system.

Royal Eneld All New Classic 350 07
SAFE RIDING TIPS/GUIDELINES
«DO NOT ll the fuel in tank to its brim. Please
ll fuel till the bottom of anti splash plate, so
as to leave sucient air space in the fuel tank
toallow for fuel expansion.
WARNING
Royal Eneld cautions you against the use of certain
nonstandard parts such as aftermarket and custom
made extended front forks or suspensions, which may
adversely aect performance and handling. Removing or
altering original parts may adversely aect performance
and could result in accident.
A new motorcycle must be operated according to
the special running-in-procedure. See running-in-
procedure mentioned in respective section.
Operate motorcycle only at moderate speeds and
out of trac until you have become thoroughly
familiar with its operation and handling character-
istics under all conditions.
Do not exceed the legal speed imit or ride too
fast for existing conditions. Always reduce speed
when poor riding conditions exist. High speed
increases the inuence of any other condition
aecting stability and increases the possibility of
loss of control.

SAFE RIDING TIPS/GUIDELINES
NOTE
If you are an inexperienced rider we recommend that
you obtain formal training on correct motorcycle riding
techniques and become thoroughly familiar with the
operation of your motorcycle. New riders should again
experience under various conditions while driving
moderate speeds.
Pay strict attention to road surfaces and wind condi-
tions. Any motorcycle may be subject to the following
up-setting forces :
«Wind blasts from passing vehicles.
«Rough or uneven road surfaces.
«Slippery road surfaces.
These forces may aect the handling characteristics of
your motorcycle. If this happens, reduce speed of the
motorcycle to a controlled condition. Do not apply
brake abruptly.
Operate your motorcycle defensively. Remember
that a motorcycle does not aord the same
protection as an automobile in an accident. One of
the most common accident situations occurs
when the rider/driver of the other motorcycle/
vehicle fails to see or recognise a motorcycle and
turns into the oncoming motorcyclist.
Wear an approved helmet, clothing and footwear
suited for riding a motorcycle. Bright/light colours
are best for greater visibility in trac, especially at
night. Avoid loose, owing garments and scarves.

Royal Eneld All New Classic 350 09
SAFE RIDING TIPS/GUIDELINES
When carrying a pillion rider, it is your responsi-
bilityto instruct them on proper riding procedures.
Do not allow other individuals, under any
circumstances, to operate your motorcycle unless
you know they are experienced, licensed riders
and are thoroughly familiar with the operating
conditions of your motorcycle.
WARNING
Regularly inspect shock absorbers and front
forks and look for leaks. Replace worn out parts.
Worn out parts can adversely aect stability and
handling.
For your personal welfare, all the listed service
and maintenance recommendations should be
performed. Lack of regular maintenance at the
suggested intervals may aect the safe/durability/
longevity operation of your motorcycle.
Avoid any contact with the exhaust system when
hot. Wear clothing that will completely cover the
legs while riding. The exhaust system gets very hot
when the engine is running and remains too hot to
touch, even after the engine is turned o. Failure to
wear proper or protective clothing could result in
serious injury.
Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide
and chemicals, known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive defects.

SAFE RIDING TIPS/GUIDELINES
WARNING
Motorcycle Batteries and internals contain lead and
lead acid components, known to cause cancer and
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Always
wear approved protective face shield, rubberized
gloves and protective clothing when working with
batteries. Keep batteries and acid out of reach of
children.
Consult your Royal Eneld Authorised Service
Centre regarding any questions or problems that
occur in the operation of your motorcycle. Failure
to do so may aggravate an initial problem, cause
costly repairs and jeopardize your personal safety.
Do not tow a motorcycle. The steering and handling
of the towed motorcycle will be impaired due to
the force of the towline. If a motorcycle must be
transported, use a truck or a trailer.
Do not pull a trailer behind a motorcycle. Towing
a trailer may cause reduced braking eciency,
tyre overloading and unstable handling, as it may
cause loss of control of the motorcycle in the front,
leading to an accident.

RULES OF THE ROAD
SIDE VIEW MIRRORS
Your motorcycle is equipped with convex mirrors and
have a curved surface. This type of mirror is designed
to give a much wider view of the rear than a normal at
mirror. However, vehicles and other objects seen in this
type of mirror will look smaller and farther away than
when seen in a at mirror.
Use care when judging the size or distance of vehicles/
objects seen in these mirrors.
NOTE
To establish the relative distance of vehicles/objects
behind your motorcycle through the mirrors, adjust
each mirror in such a way, that a small portion of your
shoulder is visible and a large portion behind your
motorcycle is seen clearly with reference to your riding
posture.

ACCESSORIES AND LUGGAGE
Royal Eneld oers a range of genuine motorcycle
accessories that have been fully approved and
extensively tested alongside the motorcycle. We
strongly recommend using them for ensuring
performance. Fitment of accessories which are not
tested and approved by Royal Eneld may aect the
performance or life of the components for which Royal
Eneld cannot be held responsible and Royal Eneld
reserves the right not to accept such failures or issues
under the scope of warranty.
Therefore, the rider must be responsible for safe
operation of the motor cycle when installing accessories
or carrying additional weight.
Please adhere to the following guidelines when carrying
a pillion, luggage or when tting any accessories.
Do not exceed 110 kmph when riding solo, carrying
a pillion or payload on an accessory equipped
motorcycle.
Keep luggage weight concentrated close to the
motorcycle and as low as possible; this minimizes
sudden shift in the motorcycle’s center of gravity.
Distribute weight evenly on both sides of the
motorcycle.
Do not load bulky items behind the rider or add
weight to the handlebars or front forks.
Re-check the luggage periodically to ensure it is
secured and will not shift while riding. Accessories
mounted loosely may aect the riding of the
motorcycle and aect the handling and stability of
the motorcycle.

Royal Eneld All New Classic 350 15

genuine motorcycle accessories which are model
specic and follow installation procedure.

Do not load weight or install accessories
incorrectly on the motorcycle. Doing so may aect
the motorcycle’s stability, handling characteristics
and safe operation and could result in an accident
