It’s nice to have the lower seat height but those handlebars look like they’re going to be uncomfortable on longer rides.

I rode both, and the Bobber has a more laid back feeling. It's not a dramatically different change, but you can feel it.

It's not that the riding position is different at all. It’s really about looks not ergonomic changes.

I actually like the more upright position of the standard Classic as someone with back issues. I think the Bobber is a little too hunched.

Cruising around with the Bobber gives it a cooler vibe, but I’d stick with the Classic for daily commuting.

I believe that RE found the right balance. It's special enough without being impractical.

The low seat height only really complaints shorter riders have though, tall folks will feel a little cramped on the Bobber.
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.

Definitely starting with a standard Bullet is the way to go. You’ll be free to customize without the worries of screwing up a limited edition bike.

The Trials 500 is a great starting point, I think. You can build on top of what it already has as some cool mods and make something really unique.

Customising a Trials 500 is a waste. Why mess with it? It's already a special bike. Regular Bullet save the mods.

It depends on your goals. If you’re looking for a truly unique bike, start with the Trials 500. If you’re on a budget or are interested in doing a ground up build, go with a standard Bullet.

I've seen some awesome custom Trials 500s. The trick is to make its scrambler vibe stronger, without changing its character.

Honestly, 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.

Consider resale value too. While the value of the Trials 500 is partly in the fact it is still in its original condition, a heavily customized Trials 500 might be worth less than a modified standard Bullet.
Would the Standard Herald have made it if it had better marketing?
07 January 2025 09:55
No way. The fundamental issues with the car were not to be fixed by marketing. What it needed was better quality, not better ads.

07 January 2025 09:55
Absolutely! The Herald had features that were unique and could have been massive selling points if they had been marketed right. It was a missed opportunity.

It might, but it would’ve taken more than marketing. More important were pricing and after sales service.

I think it could’ve been saved a bit better with some better marketing, but not entirely. Marketing or not, the car was ahead of its time for India.

Definitely. See how Ambassador marketed itself as a sturdy, reliable car. The right campaign could've made Herald own the 'modern, sporty' niche.

Nah, it wasn't marketing alone that could have saved it. It did not evolve with Indian needs and the car needed to.
