Is the Machismo 350 cult following justified, or just nostalgia fuelled?

Through the years, the Royal Enfield Machismo 350 has become quite of a cult, it even went to a point that many considered it one of RE’s best models ever produced. The Machismo is praised by fans of the Machismo for its blend of classic styling with (for the time) modern features, better handling than the standard Bullet and its overall riding experience. In fact, some even claim that it's the height of Royal Enfield's pre modern era bikes. Yet critics say this cult status is more about nostalgia than anything else. According to them, the Machismo is an underpowered bike, with many quirks and reliability issues by modern standards. That has led to discussions about what constitutes motorcycle enthusiasm, the worth of a bike's 'character,' and whether or not the rose-tinted glasses of nostalgia are obscuring an objective look at the Machismo's place in the history of motorcycling.

It’s 100% justified. The Machismo was a cool old school bike with just enough modern features. You can't get that feeling with any modern bike.
