The details of the 2016 model update on Royal Enfield motorcycles have leaked online ahead of its actual announcement, giving the fans of the Chennai-based motorcycle maker yet another reason to cheer.

It is not clear whether the updates shown in the leaked details will be offered in India or are for export markets; however, from the images it looks like the entire line-up of the Royal Enfield is in the list to get the new updates. Thanks to Team BHP for sharing the 2016 model line-up of Royal Enfield. The major change is in the form of new paint jobs.

According to the leaked presentation slides, the 2016 Bullet Electra -- the 350cc model that is currently offered in 'Red', 'Black' and 'Silver' -- will be updated with two new colour schemes: 'Meridian Blue' and 'Marsala Red'.

While the Classic 350 will get two new colours -- 'Chestnut Red' and 'Marshal Green', Royal Enfield's Classic 500 and Classic Chrome 500 will be updated with new shades, Squadron Blue and Athena Grey and Forest Green respectively.

The Bullet 500, which is currently offered in 'Forest Green' and 'Black', is likely to get new 'Athena Grey' colour.
