Such a dream bike for everyone. Look like a giant and royal very smooth while riding. Very good look and needs some modifications for more beautiful. Service maintenance is high other than normal bike when you drive the bike will feel high standards there are no cons almost everything is good and amazing.

Royal Enfield 500cc Desert Strome
1 year ago
Advocate Khalid
Bought Desert Strom 500cc in 2014, Not planned, not even thought of buying it. But this is one of the finest bike I had, I have changed around 30+ bikes by now but this is still the champ.
Looks and Performance are Ultra pro max. You feel complete when riding it.
Luxury comes with price, So maintenance is little costly for poor people like those who are reading this review.
Pros - No vibration even 90+rpm
Cons- Heavy weight and the colour is little Handle with care.

Made like a gun !! goes like a bullet

Vijay Wanjari
I am riding this beast for the last 12 years on the streets of pune for my daily commute to the office, practically doing anything whenever I go out. Strong built, reliable, good torque helps you cut the city traffic. City mileage ~ 28kmpl. Servicing costs ~ 3500 to 4000 /-. One issue: frequent clutch cable breaks.

Royal enfield classic 350 model review after driving 50000 kms
2 years ago
Pallav Tyagi
- Previously rates were good but nowadays its too much expensive as compared to performance
- comfortable to ride on long route good grips on road
- good look compared to other cruise bike of this price range.
- service & maintenance is way too high as you have to pay service charge for each part individually which sometimes higher than the actual part cost
- must buy bike for cruise experience but if you are low on budget don't buy because maintenance is too high

Bullet mean bullet
3 years ago
Nagarajs
Best power bike in this category, feel great while riding. Bullet is bullet no match. I love 500cc than 350cc and low maintenance if you keep your bike clean with soft touch. While parking long time put it on center stand, carry tools, clutch wire , spark plugs, check oil level once in a week and clean chain and lubricate regularly.

Bullet mean bullet

Best power bike in this category, feel great while riding. Bullet is bullet no match. I love 500cc than 350cc and low maintenance if you keep your bike clean with soft touch. While parking long time put it on center stand, carry tools, clutch wire , spark plugs, check oil level once in a week and clean chain and lubricate regularly.
