pros

indian bike wining world

cons

look

Style yes it is the only pro for this bike.

Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox gear box is very bad as it strucks while chaning the gear from the day 1 and the solution told by service engg is to open the engine.

Ride quality & handling ok.

Final words this review i wanted to write for long time. I generaly dont write review but for this i want to write. I know i am wasting 30 mins of my time but let me help peoples decisions.

One the data of delivery found dent in the tank, what they did is just take another new bikes tank and fitted in my bike by changing the tank lid(who is the poor guy who go that tank). On 3 day found oil leak took vehicle 3 time to showroom not resolved. Local mechanical found that showroom people tried to fix damaged part which came with new vehicle with m-seal. Becouse this part costs rs100 m-seal costs nothing. I would have given rs100 then comming to showroom 3 times.

From the first day engine piston noice was high if we ask the service engg immediate answer is to open the engine. Enven it is 1 month old vehicle, how bas it feel to open engine of new bike they dont understand.

Only 6000 done thay are asking me to change chain spraket. I used my rx135 for more then 1l kms still running with same chain spacket. Very thin layer of painting just removed by carrying lunch box by keeping tamk for 3 months. Bike just vibrates too much such that nothing visible int he mirror.

Till now i have changed due to poor build quality 1. Mirror 2. Self starts some sensor 3. A part in chase for covering a hole.

These people just check nothing else. I don't about other bike except 2 of my bikes if qality of others also same may be you can go for it.

Areas of improvement dealer network just cheat people. Getting appoinmnet for serive is like getting iim admission. Poor quality service engineers.

Pros

style

cons

many

Style very good

engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox: good engine performance, ideal for long journey, fuel economy require some improvement. Gearbox is smooth.

Ride quality & handling: excellent stability and a balanced bike. Braking system is good. Good quality shock absorbers.

Final words: a classic bike

areas of improvement: fuel economy require improvement with comparison to the delivered power.

Pros

bold look, attractive sound, excellent road grip, suitable engine for long ride, excellent balance.

Cons

pick up, mileage.

My bullet was bought by my father in 1976 when i was minus 3 months old .

And i ride the same bullet when my daughter is 4 years in 2017.

I love my bullet more i love anyone in this world.

I have still kept the same number plate, same rims, same petrol tank and same electrical switches with the same original speedometer.

About the Reviewer

Horrible experience.

Bought my electra fom the jhandewalan outlet in sep 2015. In the last 10months, 11000km, i have to get my clutch at around 8000km and leg break at around 2nd service changed. The top speed is a joke. Seriously.. The bike shakes at 80kmph speed. The coat on the engine wore off with scratches from my bag. A cycle rammed into my front tyre and they changed the entire handle stick. Not joking!! ofcourse the gear box getting stuck is a legendary problem with re.

Last friday i noticed a thud sound coming from my chain, at the service centre they showed me that the pins of chain wheel on which the chain rotates have begun falling out..I m not kidding, the tips were compeletely uprooted ..Not just 1 but 4-5 as i was told.Best part is that theytake money for everything as the standard dialogue is "running part ki guarantee nahi hoti".

Another day wasted at the royal enfield service centre. I had my service done alongwith it too. Total bill 3600rs.

Since then my gear isnt changing smoothly but changes with a pressure and alongwith a loud thud and the start plug is working after 5seconds of holding it.

I think that the re uses sub-standard material to manufacture their bikes and now i am genuinely contemplating a legal action against them in the consumer court.

Pros

just the tag of owning a bullet electra

cons

just too many. Gear, chainset, speed, brakes.

Style

very good. It still retains the retro look to some extent & the sporty look in a cruiser

engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox

better than its class. High economy of 43 km/liter on highway & average of 35 km/liter in city.

Ride quality & handling

excellent. Handling ok if you get used to it. Drove 330 km at a stretch with absolutely no fatigue.

Final words

best that money can buy. No where in the world will you gat a bike with such specs at such price.

Areas of improvement

fuel meter must. Mile reset meter must. Tachometer if possible. Wider rear tyres please.

Pros

power & styling

cons

top speed disgusting, no fuel meter, no mile reset meter & very narrow rear wheels

Company is saying to change chain and chain gear on 6000km which costs 6000

So per km 1 and average will be like 2.5 per km and 1 per km for service and all

So it will costs you 4.5 per km better to drive a petrol car with ac at 5 per km not worth buying bullet, cng and diesel cars will save a lot money of yours

About the Reviewer

According to my point of view this is the standard strong bike i ever purchased. Rider feel comfortable and top of the world while riding this bike. Average is good as per features and the sound is totally different from other bikes. Anyone can take this bike for long drive and it's performance and looks is dam good when you ride this on road.

About the Reviewer

Buying a royal enfield is not simply buying a bike but to have the legacy that comes with the brand royal enfield. Go to the dealer, have a trial, and if you like it, book it. It will be delivered to at a time. Approx. After 2-3 weeks. Ha ha royal enfield . Wow what a ride. It looks good that old school charm in it. Solid re logo carved on the tank. Sitting position is comfortable, handling is good, linear acceleration but braking is poor. I'm not demanding for abs but there should be front disc brake for better stopping. Rear shocks are very poor gives jerks to the spinal cord of pillion rider on potholes, ruts and offroad. That's really pathetic can cause a severe problem to the body.The rear tyre is also thin and break shoes doesn't lasts longer. Now the servicing, they are really royal depend on you, they don't repair they simply replace and gives the bill to you. Cause you are now the royal member.Pros:1.You have a royal enfield in it his price.2. It is good looking and comfortable.3. Mileage is super in bs4 really approx 35kmpl in all conditions.Cons:1. You have now royal expenses @ servicing and maintenance.2. Braking is poor and rear shock gives jerk to pillion. Really painful and severe.3. Aha! don't change the silencer guys law is really strict now. Thank you for reading.
