Royal-Enfield-1960-350cc-Bullet
Boost peak power output to 21 bhp @ 6,500 rpm by various tweaks, add a bigger front stopper, drop the handlebar ends, spray on some
lustrous polychromatic paint and dip the lot in the chrome vat and this is how the “350 Clipper” emerged!
In fairness there was a little more to it than that, but in essence the 1960 “350 Bullet” was a sporting variant of its rather plain class-mate.
Again, Royal Enfield was keeping faith with a fast disappearing market sector in continuing this model. Twins were taking over and rorty
singles were not going to be the future. New for ‘60 on the Bullet was an entirely AC/DC lighting and ignition system, gone was the magneto
ignition of yore, a contact breaker housing taking the place of the old ‘mag’. In that much, at least, Redditch was following a trend.
