Royal Enfield has restarted the fitment of the gear position indicator on select 350cc bikes after resolving supply constraints that had temporarily affected the feature’s availability. Eligible owners can now get the component installed free of cost at authorised Royal Enfield service centres.
Which Bikes Are Eligible?
The update applies to the following Royal Enfield models manufactured after August 2025:
Not every motorcycle from this period will necessarily qualify, as eligibility is determined using the bike’s Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Owners can check with their nearest authorised service centre to confirm whether their motorcycle is covered under this campaign.
Why Was It Missing?
Royal Enfield had earlier paused the inclusion of the gear position indicator due to a shortage of rare-earth materials used in the component. With supply now back to normal, the company has resumed fitment and is offering the update at no additional cost for eligible motorcycles.
Free Installation At Authorised Service Centres
Owners of eligible motorcycles can visit any authorised Royal Enfield workshop to have the gear position indicator installed. The company is carrying out the fitment free of charge as part of this update.
Why Does A Gear Position Indicator Matter?
A gear position indicator displays the currently engaged gear on the instrument console, making it easier for riders to know when to upshift or downshift. While experienced riders may not rely on it much, it is a useful aid for beginners as it helps avoid riding in the wrong gear and makes everyday commuting more convenient.
