A Decade with the Royal Enfield Electra 5S
1 year ago
Nishant Sharma
I purchased the Royal Enfield Electra 5S back in 2009, and it has been an incredible journey ever since. This unique model, with its left-side gear, right-side rear brakes, and CI engine, stands out in the Royal Enfield lineup. The bike also features both electric and kick-start options, adding to its convenience.Over the years, I’ve clocked in over 1 lakh kilometers on this machine. The riding experience is comfortable, akin to the Classic and Standard models. The Electra 5S has a punchy pickup and can easily maintain a speed of 80 mph without any struggle, making long rides a breeze.The bike’s looks are similar to the Standard model, but it was available in various colors, allowing riders to choose one that best fits their personality.When it comes to maintenance, the Electra 5S is more economical than other Royal Enfield models, which is a significant advantage for regular riders.However, one downside is that Royal Enfield no longer provides service for older models in their service centers. This makes it challenging to find mechanics who can handle any repairs or routine maintenance.In conclusion, the Royal Enfield Electra 5S has been a reliable companion over the past decade. Its unique features, combined with its performance and low maintenance, make it a great choice for anyone looking for a comfortable and efficient ride. However, the lack of service support for older models is a point to consider.

Tips for other riders
Here are some tips for maintaining your Royal Enfield Electra 5S: Change the Oil Regularly: It’s recommended to change the oil after every 3000 km. Regular oil changes can help keep your engine running smoothly and efficiently. Starting the Bike: Avoid using the electric start when you start the bike for the first time in a day. Using the kick start can help prolong the life of your battery and starter motor. Engine Performance: The Electra 5S has a CI (Cast Iron) engine, which performs better when it’s hot. So, don’t worry if you notice a slight improvement in performance after the engine warms up. This is completely normal and is a characteristic of CI engines. Remember, regular maintenance is key to ensuring the longevity and performance of your bike. Happy riding!

Very danger and sexy bike own a bullet 350 electra twinspark. It is fantastic and giving a very good mileage. Its been 3 months almost that i have purchased. I have gone for a long ride twice about 1500 kms per ride and i have never experienced such amazing comfortable journey. I will always recommend to buy royal enfield bikes as it gives an extra touch to someone's personality. Loved it and thank you royal enfield for such amazing product since 1932.

Feel royal to ride

J A Sunil
I love and enjoy my electra ride in city and highway. It's handle bar is so comfortable for both the rides. It's more joyful to ride at an average speed 50kmph. Service and maintenance is not so hard and expensive. If service is done in frequent intervals performance and mileage remains steady and smooth.
