Hey guys,
I was planning to buy a electra from last one year(used). Did not get any good deal and at last decided to buy a new standard 4s after i drove it for 1 week(friends) and was shocked to hear that this bull’s production has stopped. After around 100 calls to dealers finally i got one from a dealer in NCR. will be getting delivery today. Let me know what all things i should take care of for my new bull. I am also getting married in November and my fiance also loves it.
Thanks
Sharad

Hi guys,
As machismo 500cc has already become a retired model of RE. I own this model and had lots of problems regarding its sounds. I had to spend lots of money to get it repaired and now I’m fed up, and planning to buy a standard 350cc with gears on right if its possible. even one of my friends seized his engine of 500cc classic. my inner voice says that standard make its appearence again. lets hope for good for the fans of standard 350cc and I’m sure that it would come again.

now royal enfield phased out their cast iron engine & might be in the mid of this year company will launch new std350 & electa with uce engine with left side gear shift. but i personally think that right side gear shift is unique. this make any royal enfield bike a niche motorcycle. this is a good job to change engine but plz do not change right side gear shift. atleast alternative must be open for every one.

This is for everyone who wants to own a bullet and who already has one.First lets start with the wannabe bullet owners.Royal Enfield is a very old company,originated in ENGLAND in Redditch,then the company shifted in india.Bullet 350 std is a bike which was an original british motorcycle,which india has been manufacturing the same way since it was originally made.Now back in those days the quality of the british made enfield were said to be good,they were reliable,according to those days.Now the indian made bullet are not exactly of the same quality as their british counterparts,as india being a third world country dont expect too much out of it,its like judging skimmed milk with diary milk,if you know what i mean.Buying a bullet in india is all about having an inner pride,its showing how manly you are or that what most of us belive.The indian royal enfield company has been making different models from time to time,where most of the look remains the same,now the original bullet std which is still in production has 4 gears and on the right side,now some new variants have the same cast iron engine along with new ones with 5 gears on the left side,now how can you put 5 gears on the cast iron engine which was suppose to have 4 gears and that is also on the left side,originality destroyed by our so called indian engineers.Most of the motorcycle comapny in india seems to have a histroy of tie up with japenese company or others but there never has been a stand alone indian made motorcycle.So,in short dont go for the new age bullet which the company have recently launched,instead stick with the original one the Bullet 350 std.Now lets go to those who already own one,some people bring it to make their neighbours jealous and some bring it to give it a good massage therapy,with all kinds of polish and wax.People like to stand out from the rest of the crowd no matter what.we all like it no matter how weired we may seem.Modifying your bullet with extra light,or just ripping off that original comapny fitted silincer with an after market one for louder thump does not make any sense,what one usually ends up upon is a dead battery and a engine which has a higher RPM than usual along with oil leaks and not to mention the higher vibration of the bike.Its good to be in speed,you feel the air hitting your face its almost feels like you are flying,but then again dont you think what you are riding it is not some japanese rice grinder nor an american harley,its a bike which was made before you were even born,so try to keep the speed in 60 to 70kmp.I am a bullet owner myself and a huge fan of this classic motorcycle,ever since i was a kid it used to make my head turn on the roads.My first bike is a bullet,and i got it when i was 18,thats when you get your license actually.So,to everyone who has a bullet enjoy your bike,love it like as if it is a part of your family and always remember its roots…Keep Tumping…CHEERS!!!

hi anish…i am in a bit of dilemma.i would like to purchase a bullet , but dont know which one to purchase…i mean which one delivers performance, economy and royalty..i prefer std 350cc as it is easy on the pocket and wheel base is better. as a matter of fact i am a heavily built person..do you recommend me a std 350 cc…pls rely and do u think if we add the windscreen to std 350 , would that lok good.would youtell me what extra modfications we could do to the std 350 to make it look classy……awaiting your reply….

thanks
Royce

I wish to touch 160kph if its possible on my RE350. Today I touched 70kph and it brought tears to my eyes as I was riding
without helmets on. Next time I wish to touch the maximum with
ofcourse my helmets on.
Long Live RE350.
