Royal enfield classic 500 chrome review
6 years ago
Sidak Singh
Pros-1) this bike is full of chrome which looks attractive and has zero plastic which will reduce the repairing cost in case of an accident. 2) the suspension of royal enfield is very good. You will not feel the bumpy jerks when the bike goes into the pothole. 3) the build quality of the bike is very good and is good for cruising. 4) the most important part is the thump that it produces. The bike has a unique thump which you will not get in other bikes. 5) a lot of accessories are available for royal enfield bikes. It means that there are abundant modifications available for royal enfield like silencers, filters, leg guards drl led headlights, endless varieties of wheels, alloy models etc. For a motorcycle enthusiast this machine is very good. Now these are the pros. Now we will talk about the cons. Cons 1)weak rear brakes. Though the front wheel has a disc brake but the rear wheel has a drum brake. So i am very disappointed with it. They should be rear disc brakes as well which are now available in gunmetal grey and stealth black models but don't have in my classic 500 chrome. 2) a lot of vibrations while riding between 90-100kmph. If you are riding at a constant speed your handlebar vibrates like hell so this a con. 3) no fuel gauge. The bike has no fuel gauge so i am very disappointed with this as it is the most essential feature in a bike. So according to me these are the pros and cons of royal enfield classic 500 chrome. Hope it helps.

Change engine oil after 3000 km, replace air filter after 2000 km if you are living in a dusty area or you can also clean the air filter. I would suggest you to use synthetic oil rather than royal enfield oil. After 8000kms please check your fork oil and brake oil levels and refill them if required. In every service make sure to clean the throttle body and fuel pump. After every 500km clean and lube your chain with chain lube oil as it will keep your bike smooth and will enhance the life of your chain.

It is a good bike but it vibrates a lot after 100kmph. It's exhaust is also loud and also almost every part in motorcycle can be customized as your wish. You can add new lights turn indicators etc. It is too heavy which makes it difficult to get out from the traffic in cities. Pillion seat also optional.

I am riding since 7 months .I experienced a retro look and retro style bcz of chrome ,it shines when you are under sun-rays, it looks classic when you r under shadow more over it makes a man look classic and charming when riding it , you can give a retro touch by only adding extra silencer and removing rear seat ......When it comes for performance it is good compared to other re vehicles,but only thing is maintenance of the vehicle is bit tough compare to other vehicles , but for these retro looked bike that much maintenance is required ,or else it will be like other vehicle ....

I am riding since one year, feel like heaven. Looking different than other royal enfield bike. I will ride daily 70km no pain at all. I bought this bike green color looks like stainless steel no fiber. Sound and vibration little bit heavy in this bike. I suggest who bought 500cc bike then go for it. Thanks royal enfield to manufacture this bike to look royal.

Royal enfield show cases its bikes in pretty cool showrooms. Above all the engine sound while riding keeps you elated. Royal enfield gives its bike a tough and hardcore look while classic models seems to be cool.Not yet approached for servicing. I am happy to own this bike and it gives me pleasant feeling while riding.

Enfield chrome
6 years ago
Yuvraj
The new enfield chrome is a new trend nowadays. I prefer if u going for classic 500. Please take a look to the new chrome version of it, It’s chrome reflects the boldness of an bullet. Although the toughness of a 500 cc bike. Give a good impact with its chrome finish. The price is bit high. But i prefer its an good newly arrived bike. So just go for it guys.

Ageless bike . Always turns to new when it’s serviced
6 years ago
Gagan N
I myself own a royal enfield classic 500 chrome (black). We have 3 colour options black,green,graphite.
In looks wise bike is super shiny and cool . Easy to maintain outer body,just water it and wipe when it’s dirty you will see a super clean bike (90%clean). You have 13.5l fuel tank (750ml dead reserve ). It’s a 194kg(dry weight) 499cc bike with single cylinder 4 stroke and a digital electric ignition with compression ratio of 8.5:1 which output 27.2bhp@5250rpm and 41.3nm of torque @4000rpm . Bike is equipped with wet multiplate clutch & 5speed gear box and has a ground clearance of 135mm. And it is equipped with 153mm drum rear brake(which is very bad and cons in thz bike the brake die very soon in 500cc bike compared to 350cc bike ) and 280mm disc front brake. Chain sprocket and chain should be maintained well because sprocket teeth brakes easy if you don’t maintain it properly and improper gear shifting also will dame it which will cost you around 2.5k-3k to change it. Bike is really good but one should know how to control the bike with the gear down shift because the rear brake dies very soon and you will have to change the brake very often. No fuel indicator only when the bike is left with 2l of fuel the fuel gauge light blinks . Top speed which i have personally done is 137kmph(and with vibration) . Ride the bike below 100 to keep up the proper feeling of riding the re500. Try to ride slow in wet roads . Even the tap leak water from truck can make your tyre slip from control.

Lube your bike chain every 500km or 30 days to maintain chain amd sprocket . And always ride with correct tyre pressure (don't fill air when bike is heated up it will show the wrong psi as the rubber will be burnt and will have heat air , always fill up air when bike is cool)

I am riding since 7 months .I experienced a retro look and retro style bcz of chrome ,it shines when you are under sun-rays, it looks classic when you r under shadow more over it makes a man look classic and charming when riding it , you can give a retro touch by only adding extra silencer and removing rear seat ......When it comes for performance it is good compared to other re vehicles,but only thing is maintenance of the vehicle is bit tough compare to other vehicles , but for these retro looked bike that much maintenance is required ,or else it will be like other vehicle ....

I am riding since one year, feel like heaven. Looking different than other royal enfield bike. I will ride daily 70km no pain at all. I bought this bike green color looks like stainless steel no fiber. Sound and vibration little bit heavy in this bike. I suggest who bought 500cc bike then go for it. Thanks royal enfield to manufacture this bike to look royal.

Royal enfield show cases its bikes in pretty cool showrooms. Above all the engine sound while riding keeps you elated. Royal enfield gives its bike a tough and hardcore look while classic models seems to be cool.Not yet approached for servicing. I am happy to own this bike and it gives me pleasant feeling while riding.

Enfield chrome

The new enfield chrome is a new trend nowadays. I prefer if u going for classic 500. Please take a look to the new chrome version of it, It’s chrome reflects the boldness of an bullet. Although the toughness of a 500 cc bike. Give a good impact with its chrome finish. The price is bit high. But i prefer its an good newly arrived bike. So just go for it guys.

Ageless bike . Always turns to new when it’s serviced
6 years ago
Gagan N
I myself own a royal enfield classic 500 chrome (black). We have 3 colour options black,green,graphite.
In looks wise bike is super shiny and cool . Easy to maintain outer body,just water it and wipe when it’s dirty you will see a super clean bike (90%clean). You have 13.5l fuel tank (750ml dead reserve ). It’s a 194kg(dry weight) 499cc bike with single cylinder 4 stroke and a digital electric ignition with compression ratio of 8.5:1 which output 27.2bhp@5250rpm and 41.3nm of torque @4000rpm . Bike is equipped with wet multiplate clutch & 5speed gear box and has a ground clearance of 135mm. And it is equipped with 153mm drum rear brake(which is very bad and cons in thz bike the brake die very soon in 500cc bike compared to 350cc bike ) and 280mm disc front brake. Chain sprocket and chain should be maintained well because sprocket teeth brakes easy if you don’t maintain it properly and improper gear shifting also will dame it which will cost you around 2.5k-3k to change it. Bike is really good but one should know how to control the bike with the gear down shift because the rear brake dies very soon and you will have to change the brake very often. No fuel indicator only when the bike is left with 2l of fuel the fuel gauge light blinks . Top speed which i have personally done is 137kmph(and with vibration) . Ride the bike below 100 to keep up the proper feeling of riding the re500. Try to ride slow in wet roads . Even the tap leak water from truck can make your tyre slip from control.

Tips for other riders
Lube your bike chain every 500km or 30 days to maintain chain amd sprocket . And always ride with correct tyre pressure (don't fill air when bike is heated up it will show the wrong psi as the rubber will be burnt and will have heat air , always fill up air when bike is cool)

Re classic chrome full review
7 years ago
Manas Naik
1. Buying experience was just awesome
i booked re on 22 sep 2016 and after 4 days i got a message for re that your bike is ready for pickup, just 4 days waiting and my bike was ready for pickup, the was really fast and i took the delivery that day itself, the bike was damn good
2 . About riding experience i would like to say that i am riding this bike since 1 year
And the bike is riding so smooth
The bike is not giving me any problems the pickup is also damn good the bike easily reaches 100 and on highway it goes
A top speed of 140 but after 120 the bike gives little vibrations but other than vibrations their is no problem to bike
3 . The look about the bike is 10/10. No words for the looks. Every time i look a the bike i am in love with it and about the performance i have mentioned in the 2nd point till 120 kmph their is no problem but after 120 it vibrates
4.About the servicing i have completed 4 services and the days i service my bike i feel like i have just purchased a new re it is that good.In that 3 service was free and other 1 was paid and in every service i changed my oil .I recommend everyone to service the bike in the authorized service center only its little expensive but they do their job perfectly with any complaints
And about maintenance its little high you have to maintain your bike like time to time service , wash your bike in every 2 week, you have to take care of your bike otherwise it would cost you more for its maintenance
5. About pros -
-the bike is really great at looks
-the bike sounds just awesome
-its full metal body
Cons-
-the bike comes with only one disk break
-the vibrations on higher speed
-the maintenance is high
This is all about my re 500 classic chrome

Royal enfield classic 500 chrome review
6 years ago
Sidak Singh
Pros-1) this bike is full of chrome which looks attractive and has zero plastic which will reduce the repairing cost in case of an accident. 2) the suspension of royal enfield is very good. You will not feel the bumpy jerks when the bike goes into the pothole. 3) the build quality of the bike is very good and is good for cruising. 4) the most important part is the thump that it produces. The bike has a unique thump which you will not get in other bikes. 5) a lot of accessories are available for royal enfield bikes. It means that there are abundant modifications available for royal enfield like silencers, filters, leg guards drl led headlights, endless varieties of wheels, alloy models etc. For a motorcycle enthusiast this machine is very good. Now these are the pros. Now we will talk about the cons. Cons 1)weak rear brakes. Though the front wheel has a disc brake but the rear wheel has a drum brake. So i am very disappointed with it. They should be rear disc brakes as well which are now available in gunmetal grey and stealth black models but don't have in my classic 500 chrome. 2) a lot of vibrations while riding between 90-100kmph. If you are riding at a constant speed your handlebar vibrates like hell so this a con. 3) no fuel gauge. The bike has no fuel gauge so i am very disappointed with this as it is the most essential feature in a bike. So according to me these are the pros and cons of royal enfield classic 500 chrome. Hope it helps.

Tips for other riders
Change engine oil after 3000 km, replace air filter after 2000 km if you are living in a dusty area or you can also clean the air filter. I would suggest you to use synthetic oil rather than royal enfield oil. After 8000kms please check your fork oil and brake oil levels and refill them if required. In every service make sure to clean the throttle body and fuel pump. After every 500km clean and lube your chain with chain lube oil as it will keep your bike smooth and will enhance the life of your chain.

It is a good bike but it vibrates a lot after 100kmph. It's exhaust is also loud and also almost every part in motorcycle can be customized as your wish. You can add new lights turn indicators etc. It is too heavy which makes it difficult to get out from the traffic in cities. Pillion seat also optional.

I am not an owner of this chrome king, but lot of my friends are servant of king re.
It's really amazing power and feel better position. The single seating is better look than double. Which gives a hero looks.Maintenance is very less, but periodic service gives best performance.
Mileage is the one problem. But it's not at all a problem .This one gives best mileage in the this class 500
