FAQs

So how does the Bullet Trials 500 ride compared to modern retro styled scramblers?
07 January 2025 12:07So I think it’s kind of dependent on what you are looking for. If you're after a modern scrambler that looks the part then a new retro scrambler is the way to go. The Trials 500 is the bike if you want the full vintage experience, quirks and all.
-
If you think the Royal Enfield Bullet Trials 500 is a good platform for customization, or if you should start with a standard Bullet instead.
07 January 2025 12:07Honestly, either way works. The scrambler look is the gift that keeps on giving, and the Trials 500 gives you a head start on this look, but a standard Bullet is a blank canvas. That all depends on your vision and on your budget.
-
Is the Royal Enfield Bullet Trials 500 a heritage machine or a cash grab?
07 January 2025 12:07I don’t think people care enough about whether it’s ‘authentic’ or not. That’s fine, it’s a modern interpretation of a classic style. Everything doesn’t have to be a perfect replica.
-
Is the Royal Enfield Bullet Trials 500 really good for off roading or it's just a style statement?
07 January 2025 12:07If you're being real, most people buying this bike aren't hardcore off roaders. It's exactly what it is: a cool looking bike that can take the odd bit of rough stuff on the weekend. Not all off road bikes have to be capable of conquering the Dakar Rally.
-
Is the Royal Enfield Bullet Trials 500 worth the extra buck over other RE models?
07 January 2025 12:07I'd say it's overpriced for what it is, but it's not as if it's not worth it to the right buyer. Motorcycles are emotional purchases and if the Trials 500 does speak to you it is worth the premium.
