Discussions and Questions Royal Enfield Thunderbird
Can the Thunderbird 500X be a practical commuter in urban traffic, serving as a daily commuter?
13 January 2025 10:06
It's not perfect but if you feel confident on the bike you can do it. The trick is to plan your routes so you avoid the worst traffic and the tight spaces. It’s actually pretty nimble once you get used to the weight.
What does changing a Thunderbird 500X do to its character and performance?
13 January 2025 10:06
The way to go is subtle mods. Even somewhat moderate upgrades to things like a slightly louder exhaust, better tires, and possibly even upgraded brakes can really make the machine a nicer thing to ride without throwing the character of the bike much out of whack.
Is the Thunderbird 500X a good platform for long distance touring?
13 January 2025 10:06
In India, the Thunderbird 500X is a tourer. Our road conditions are no match for it, parts are abundant, and it’s comfortable enough for long rides. If you’re going to be doing a lot of traveling, just invest in some good luggage solutions.
Is the nostalgia factor of the Thunderbird 500X enough in 2025?
13 January 2025 10:06
It all depends on what you want. The Thunderbird 500X can be fun if you aren't fussed about spending extra time maintaining a bike and just want a cruiser. Now there are better options out there for daily commuting or long tours, but.
In 2025, how does the Thunderbird 500X’s highway performance measure up?
13 January 2025 10:06
It may not win any races, but the Thunderbird 500X is still a respectable highway performer. The engine is torquey and good for all day cruising at 80 to 90 km/h. You won't be doing a lot of high speed overtaking, but don't expect to.
