Royal Enfield User Reviews - Page 5

I am the proud owner of Royal Enfield Electra 350. Proud because whenever I go on road with my machine, every eye got stuck on me and my ride. It earned me fame and make me proud..:). On the serious note, its a bike for cruising not racing. So, If you want it for racing purpose then this is not the bike for you mate. But I am not regretting that it won't go to high speed, the problem is, if it take you all the way to 120Km/hr, stopping the bike become issue for you. The engine is vibration free till 80kmph and when you start approaching 90-100, you may feel some vibrations but still it would provide you stable ride. The braking system is powerful enough that serve the purpose well. I did not face any brake pad issue. Its seats are not so comfy but it is able to provide comfortable long drives as the seating posture is straight. I too have doubts regarding its comfort and weight before purchase, but now I am happy for my decision. I enjoy every km I travel on this bull.

Best Features: Style and performance

Pros: Appearance, Reliability, Status, Performance, Comfort

Cons: Heavy Weight

Royal Enfield was my childhood love as I used to get amaze by its powerful sound. So when I got enrolled to college, I bought Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350. Its looks and sound is the main reason I bought it. Its seating position is comfortable but it is not suitable for short riders. Back rest for the pillion rider allow pain free ride on long distance to the back passenger. Yeah, handling in city traffic is a bit tiring but its braking system is really good. Suspension is smooth and it gives me 35 kmpl average on city which is okay for me. As fuel mileage is never a issue for me I just want to own my dream Royal Enfield.

Best Features: Appearance and Seating Posture

Pros: Style, Performance, Comfortable Ride

Cons: Mileage...

It is a very stylish bike and it has got a dominating style which seems to have a bold look on the road compared to other bikes. It offers a pretty good riding position thanks to the ergonomically designed handlebar. The huge 20 litres fuel tank, LED tail lamps, digital meter console and retractable foot pegs are the other impressive features which proves to be a good competitor for other bikes. The only drawback is that it has fragile indicator lights. Overall the bike is very good. It may not have a huge followers like for Pulsar but is liked by people who want a classic vintage ride experience.

Best Features: Fuel efficient & Stylish

Pros: Huge fuel tank, comfortable seat for pillion and rider, fuel efficient, stylish

Cons: Fragile indicator lights

RE Bullet 500 gives impressive performance and also offers a great amount of comfort on long journeys. According to me, it is probably the most affordable 500cc bike available in India. It has modern features like front disc brake and electric start. It is very responsive and powerful as compared to its younger sibling. The engine works good and gear changes are also very smooth. The seat is comfortable and backache problem is not possible. The build quality is amazing and its retro looks is very dashing and eye-catching. The front disc brake works pretty well, but the rear drum needs to be seriously improved. On the other hand, the bike lacks tachometer and trip meter which are the important features of instrument console.

Best Features: Build Quality & Economical

Pros: Looks & style, vast service network, amazing build quality, economical, comfortable riding position

Cons: Absence of 6th gear, lack of tachometer and trip meter

I got my bullet few months ago and now I have covered over 25000 kms. I must say, its a pure pleasure to ride even in the heavy traffic of Delhi. Handling the bike is not a big issue as some people think because of its built and weight. It cuts through traffic with ease. The only problem I feel in the bike is its battery, it is giving me problem while I self start it and mud guard which sometimes make noise. As far as looks, none can stop admiring the machine for its ultra masculinity, As I am the one who fall in love with its looks.

Best Features: Apperance and Style

Pros: Looks, Power, Comfort, Style

Cons: Mileage, Noisy Mud Guard, Battery

It is really a great experience to have this bike. The acceleration is un-matched, it reaches up to 60 kmph under 7-9 seconds. The riding position is amazing if you want to go for long trips. The pillion seat is also very comfortable which is quite helpful in long journeys. As far as design is concerned, it is praiseworthy and impressive. The company has done a great paint job. Fuel economy is perfect and its pick-up is also very note-worthy. The engine performance is good, but needs attention towards the oil seals. Gearbox and clutch leakages needs to be repaired. Lack of fuel gauge is another missing feature in this bike. They need to add disc brakes for the rear wheels, it can boost confidence in the rider while having long journeys.

Best Features: Good Pick-up and Handling

Pros: Stylish, comfortable pillion seat, perfect paint job, good pick-up, good handling, perfect for off road riding

Cons: Bad gearbox, loose oil-seals, expensive, lacks trip meter and tachometer, no fuel gauge, absence of rear disc brakes

Buying Enfield Classic 350 is one of the best decision I have made during my college days. I fall in love with it the day I took first ride. Initially, I was frightened to kick start the motorcycle but it started at the first attempt. I can't compare my motorcycle with any other sports bike as its looks are amazing, performance is great and most of all it is an fuel efficient machine. Only problem I faced (which is actually faced by pillion passenger) is discomfort during long journey. Periodical service is the prime thing you should take care of.

Best Features: Appearance I must Say

Pros: Fuel efficient, Great ergonomics, Powerful engine, Stunning looks, Easier electric and kick start

Cons: Rusting while rainy season, Vibration below 60 kmph, Gear shifting problem
