The Royal Enfield Machismo, particularly the 350 AVL model, has been a topic of discussion among enthusiasts regarding its restoration and modification. A recent thread on a biking forum highlighted the costs and efforts involved, with estimates suggesting restoration and modification could cost over Rs. 30,000. The bikes lack of modern features like self-start and disc brakes has led many to advise against investing further in it. I think the emotional value and the desire to preserve old bikes are understandable, but practicality often wins out.

Royal Enfield has been expanding its presence in India, with plans to open 300 mini showrooms across the country. This move is expected to enhance customer accessibility and experience, though it does not directly impact the Machismo model, which is no longer in production. I believe this expansion will help Royal Enfield maintain its market presence and cater to a wider audience.

The Machismo 500, known for its lean-burn aluminum engine designed by AVL, Austria, has been a favorite among custom builders. A recent custom build transformed a Machismo 500 into a bobber, inspired by the 1949 Royal Enfield Bullet and military motorcycles from World War I and II. This build showcases the potential for creative customization of older Royal Enfield models. I think such custom builds keep the spirit of these classic bikes alive and vibrant.

Royal Enfields history with the AVL engine is significant, as it marked a transition from cast-iron head-blocks to more modern and reliable unit-construction engines. The Machismo was one of the first models to feature this new engine design, which included a left-side 5-speed gearbox and right-side brake. This technological shift was a crucial step in Royal Enfields evolution. I believe this change helped Royal Enfield stay competitive in the market.

MAXABOUT RATING AND OVERVIEW | |
Vehicle Overview | Royal Enfield Machismo 350 was last sold at a price of INR 1,06,500 before its official discontinuation. The bike came with the same 346cc engine but weighs quite less than the original Bullet 350. It produces 18 BHP and 27.45 Nm of torque. The motorcycle came with a 5-speed gearbox, claiming a top speed of 110 kmph. The fuel tank measures 14.5 liters. The motorcycle carried visual enhancements like divided seat and front visor for better protection. It could be easily related to current generation Classic 350 as it even came with a front disc brake. |

Discussions and Questions Royal Enfield Machismo
And how does it compare to modern retro styled bikes?
13 January 2025 06:52
It depends on what you want. Machismo is the way to go if nostalgia is what you're after, and you don't mind tinkering. If you want retro look with hassle free riding, pick modern.
What do I need to modify or upgrade to ride a Royal Enfield Machismo 500 on a daily basis?
13 January 2025 06:52
Upgraded brakes are a must. Today's standards are that the stock ones are sketchy. Better pads and maybe even a disc conversion up front.
Tell us about the most memorable experience you’ve had (or heard about) with a Royal Enfield Machismo 500.
13 January 2025 06:52
Charity ride, used my Machismo. We raised more money than we expected because of how much attention the thumping sound drew. Everywhere we stopped, it was a conversation starter.
Is the Machismo 500 still relevant in today’s motorcycle market?
13 January 2025 06:52
That depends from what you want. If you can deal with some maintenance and want a vintage feel the Machismo is great. Newer bikes are better for commuting, however.
What is the biggest misconception surrounding owning a Royal Enfield Machismo 500?
13 January 2025 06:52
The idea that you need to be a mechanic to own one is way off. It's not rocket science to maintain basic maintenance and most problems are easy fixes.
