Buying experience.

From the beginning itself i was attracted to motorcycles i have driven many motorcycle till now.But somewhere i new that i was going to buy a royal enfield thunderbird 350 the day i took delivery i was very excited to ride it.Because i was influenced by its beauty.Till now i can say its been real good for me.

Riding experience.

Riding experience on this bike is superb very comfortable easily i can stretch around 150 to 250 km without a break on this bike.Though i maintained my bike it never rely on me.You know every real thunderbird 350 user will agree that when you ride this motorcycle you feel very calm and relaxing with the cruising speed you feel like nature's arm itself.I really think they the royal enfield is all about that feeling.

Looks and performance

Its look is absolute gorgeous anyone can fall love with it.From top to tail its clean raw good looking motorcycle which every bikers want to have.With some extra led projectors its look even more killer.

Going to its performance i think its normal what you gave for a price we should know that no other popular classic motorcycle brand gives it motorcycle in this price tag.

I have driven it about 15000 km and i can tell it have top-speed of 135kmph

And 45kmpl this what everyone seeks for .

The bike balanced is really good.This is one of the most excellent thing i like about this bike.I can assure you if you buy this bike and maintained it properly you will feel like it has given you a purpose to live in this world.

Servicing and maintenance

Servicing is usually takes engine oil changing and washing periodically.But not every time the case is like this sometime you may have done some damage to its internal parts which can rectify during servicing so don't get shocked if you hear that .I usually pay around 1800 to 2000 rupees for extra gaskets, washers and all because they sometime fall as i don't notice .So no big cash gone there.Until something big need to repair .And don't worry the parts are genuinely fair.

This bike comes with great maintenance well let me share with you something you should really understand don't drive it hard on your delivery most people drive it very hard on the first day they got it because of excitement this is cruising bike you cruise for 3000 km and then when engine becomes regular that time you can speed up .And remember that don't speed up where you should not speed up like bad roads, bumps,traffic,to showoff.Be cool ride with your passion .Don't be a squid .Put exhaust only after 3000 km again choose exhaust according to law and if you are dropping your parents then you should probably don't be putting loud pipes

I personally recommend this exhausts

If low price then.

If you can buy costly one than

Red rooster performance

Pros and cons about this bike my personal review.

Pros

1.Again the bike super comfortable

2.Good looking perfect body

3.Big oil tank

4.Smooth gears

5.Smooth thump with standard exhaust

6.Good seat position pillion seat too

7.Great millage if you maintained your bike regularly and shift gears wisely it will give you around 40 to 45 kmpl

8.Idle for long rides

9.Kick start reliability

10.Good vibe under riding it under cruising speed

11. Maintenance is fair enough

12.Air cooled this feature helps long riders to go on unconditional roads without fear of engine getting warm up because the engine cools up automatically because air is every where.

13.Spoke wheels again they are good for long tours if few of them break due to incident still they can bring the rider hone where alloys don't

Cons.

1. Instrumental console will break after period of time don't worry you have to weld it rs 200 will be cost to fix this

2.6th gear would have been great but looking to price i think we get for what we are giving

3.Tyres should be little broad

Like original is

Front.Tyre.90/70/19 rear.Tyre 120/70/18

It should be 100/60/19 front and

Rear 140/60/17 for unique rim sizes spare tyres are hard to find in market

4.After crossing 110 kmph the bike vibrate like anything .

5.Tyres are not tubeless when going to long rides can be issue.But in my case until my tyre was little wearing i never got this issue of being punctured though i think i was lucky enough.Bot in general case

6.This thing really changed my mind and disappoints me very much that their service centres hospitality is not good although they are a reputed brand they're employees are manner-less and doesn't know how to behave with customers i think its the most common cons of every users.And that's why they are loosing there speciality and if it continues they are brand identity too as far they built great machine no customer would go if don't respect your customers.

So guys i hope you like my review on my bike thunderbird 350.

Tips for Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350

Periodically maintenance cost will be 1800 to 2000 rupees where engine oil will be replaced and washers too. Until and unless your bike having some other problems . Don't be fool make sure you get warranty if any thing goes wrong within your warranty period claim it its your right.wash it weekly if the mud is stuck on the metals then it would get rust after sometime so always polish your bike oil your chain and notice small small things every-time you go for a drive .Like that you would know what is the problem.

TB-The Beast..
27 weeks ago
Pradeep Maurya
I have been using TB350 for many years for Long Distance Riding. Multiple times I have done Mumbai-Goa on TB. I just love Riding TB, it's an amazing machine. Very comfortable and reliable built quality. The only issue is spoke wheels, it's a big problem when it's punctured. Changing to mag wheels and using tubeless tires are highly recommended while going for long-distance riding.

Strong Bike for a Strong Man
1 year ago
Venkat Reddy
Owned it for about 7 years, and had many amazing experiences and memories with it. I previously owned a Bajaj Avenger and a Yamaha rx100. After a while, I wanted a stronger and more reliable bike. Only took it to service twice and that too only for minor issues. Other than that, it accelerates very well and sounds like a beast.

Thunder...Certainly not a bird!

Cool to ride. The braking could have been better! puncture of the rear tyre though not frequent is a big headache! skids if brakes are applied urgently. Good for daily commutes as well as long rides. Doesn't heat up too much in traffic. Very comfortable riding position. Not very expensive for maintenance. Overall a good bike to own!

Thunderbird 350 ownership review
1 year ago
Ambuj
1. Buying experience:- had to wait 1.5 months.. Frustrating
2. Riding experience:- when I bought it 7 yrs ago, it was clearly a great machine, but as of now, many other bikes are available for long and comfortable cruising
3. Looks:- look is a subjective thing... Everyone has different tastes. Me, I still love its looks.
4. Performance and maintenance:- performance is great, but royal enfield demands great care and frequent service and repairs as its company-suggested service interval is every 3000kms or 3 months (whichever is earlier)
5. Pros:- great tourer, ultimate riding comfort, great mileage (mine is 35-42 in the city and 40-45 on the highway)
Cons:- needs frequent service and repairs but parts are easily available everywhere, too much vibration when compared to other bikes.

It's huge!!!
If you are huge :) so this is for you.
It's a great bike for touring and showcasing.
I don't recommend it for a daily commute and not useful for frequent rides in the city, also you will be frustrated while riding in traffic due to its weight and slow movement of the traffic.
And keep in mind that it requires regular servicing.

Maintenance is very costly
2 years ago
Lakshmipathi Reddy
1. Buying experience is good
2. Riding experience is ok
3. Bike looks very good, but performance is very bad
4. This is a very fraud service which gives all authorized royal service centers, simply they will charge this I have checked all most all bangalore service centers, and most frequently I am facing puncture people are not available anywhere, generally other bikes everywhere we can get it ready immediately but for this bike people not even ready to take this bikes for a puncture, and each and every part very costly, we can easily maintain one car for this expenses, so people beware of this royal Enfield bikes.
5. Above I have mentioned everything
No good in this vehicle.

Jasheel Raut
The best bike to ride with pride
Speed is awesome just throttle it and it runs fast and furious jut be safe as pick up is too good and fast while driving
Maintenances need to be done periodically so the bike gives good mileage and running freedom of worry
Riding the bike gives you a feel as if you are riding this with the pride.

I am wondering if re takes their customers seriously after the product is sold. Please invest in aftersales support re, I am surprised how such an established brand can not manage one small grievance of a customer who has been loyal for 10+years. Not appreciated re, I hope to hear from your team on a resolution please.

Change engine oil every 3000 kms, use shell advance synthetic oil instead for Better performance. Clean the chain regularly (Every 400-500kms) for healthy chain sprockets.

Named thunderbird but its elephant

It's huge!!!
If you are huge :) so this is for you.
It's a great bike for touring and showcasing.
I don't recommend it for a daily commute and not useful for frequent rides in the city, also you will be frustrated while riding in traffic due to its weight and slow movement of the traffic.
And keep in mind that it requires regular servicing.

Maintenance is very costly
2 years ago
Lakshmipathi Reddy
1. Buying experience is good
2. Riding experience is ok
3. Bike looks very good, but performance is very bad
4. This is a very fraud service which gives all authorized royal service centers, simply they will charge this I have checked all most all bangalore service centers, and most frequently I am facing puncture people are not available anywhere, generally other bikes everywhere we can get it ready immediately but for this bike people not even ready to take this bikes for a puncture, and each and every part very costly, we can easily maintain one car for this expenses, so people beware of this royal Enfield bikes.
5. Above I have mentioned everything
No good in this vehicle.

Just go for it
2 years ago
Jasheel Raut
The best bike to ride with pride
Speed is awesome just throttle it and it runs fast and furious jut be safe as pick up is too good and fast while driving
Maintenances need to be done periodically so the bike gives good mileage and running freedom of worry
Riding the bike gives you a feel as if you are riding this with the pride.

Pathetic aftersales support

I am wondering if re takes their customers seriously after the product is sold. Please invest in aftersales support re, I am surprised how such an established brand can not manage one small grievance of a customer who has been loyal for 10+years. Not appreciated re, I hope to hear from your team on a resolution please.

TB-The Beast..
27 weeks ago
Pradeep Maurya
I have been using TB350 for many years for Long Distance Riding. Multiple times I have done Mumbai-Goa on TB. I just love Riding TB, it's an amazing machine. Very comfortable and reliable built quality. The only issue is spoke wheels, it's a big problem when it's punctured. Changing to mag wheels and using tubeless tires are highly recommended while going for long-distance riding.

Very good superbike, with amazing features, a riding experience, and service support very good. If you ride for a long drive with just awesome, already took for the long drive from Agra to Jaipur, Jaipur to Delhi so many times, daily good experience, you have to care for this bike because maintenance cost is a little bit more in comparison with others.

Strong Bike for a Strong Man
1 year ago
Venkat Reddy
Owned it for about 7 years, and had many amazing experiences and memories with it. I previously owned a Bajaj Avenger and a Yamaha rx100. After a while, I wanted a stronger and more reliable bike. Only took it to service twice and that too only for minor issues. Other than that, it accelerates very well and sounds like a beast.

Thunder...Certainly not a bird!
1 year ago
Girish Dedhe
Cool to ride. The braking could have been better! puncture of the rear tyre though not frequent is a big headache! skids if brakes are applied urgently. Good for daily commutes as well as long rides. Doesn't heat up too much in traffic. Very comfortable riding position. Not very expensive for maintenance. Overall a good bike to own!

Thunderbird 350 ownership review
1 year ago
Ambuj
1. Buying experience:- had to wait 1.5 months.. Frustrating
2. Riding experience:- when I bought it 7 yrs ago, it was clearly a great machine, but as of now, many other bikes are available for long and comfortable cruising
3. Looks:- look is a subjective thing... Everyone has different tastes. Me, I still love its looks.
4. Performance and maintenance:- performance is great, but royal enfield demands great care and frequent service and repairs as its company-suggested service interval is every 3000kms or 3 months (whichever is earlier)
5. Pros:- great tourer, ultimate riding comfort, great mileage (mine is 35-42 in the city and 40-45 on the highway)
Cons:- needs frequent service and repairs but parts are easily available everywhere, too much vibration when compared to other bikes.
