Is the Bullet Electra a labour of love or a pain in the tuchus?
If you own a Royal Enfield Bullet Electra, you know the reputation that it needs frequent maintenance and sometimes repairs. But some owners see this as part of the bike's charm, and like to tinker and keep their machines running. They say this hands on approach allows a stronger connection between rider and motorcycle. Other challengers complain about the maintenance requirements, citing oil leaks, electrical headaches and the requirement of regular adjustment. That debate is extended to parts availability and the quality of service centers, especially for older models. Is the maintenance part of the Bullet Electra part of what makes it an appealing classic motorcycle, or is it a disadvantage in an age when many riders prefer more reliable, low maintenance bikes?
It’s definitely a labor of love. Meditation, frustrating sometimes, but rewarding in the end, is what it is like to work on my Electra.
