BULLET-THE AUTOMOTIVE ROYALTY


Let me tell you about my dream machine, the royal machine, which announces it's presence on the road with it's naughty,charming,gowning sound-THE ROYAL ENFIELD. Here is a list of bullet machines coming from the royal family.

The dream expands like this,Ride a motorcycle that can take you places. Discover colours you have never seen before. Make friends in distant lands, get used to people staring at you at traffic lights, a whole new lifestyle. A unique motorcycling experience awaits you and me. Here comes the heroes.

MACHISMO 500-really royal

A foxy combination of robust technology, higher torque,

full -bodied look & comfort styling.

The motorcycle features 40.85 Nm of torque at 3000 rpm, unique

19 -inch wheels, 280 mm front disc brake & the same engine chassis configuration being exported to Europe, USA & Australia.


Only 500 motorcycles will be made available country-wide. Hence, the charm of genuine custom accessories, viz. twin spring split seats, leather saddle bags and the Lexan anti-scratch wind screen will wow only a 'fortunate 500'.

THUNDER BIRD-hard to outwin

THUNDER BIRD is built for those who love to cruise ,with a smooth lean burn 350cc engine, constant vacuum carburetor

for easy stars,ergonomic,stepped seat

and comfortable pillion backrest,the laid back THUNDER BIRD roams open highways and circumnavigates crowded city streets effortlessly .

This ideal machine, this easy rider bike won the coveted BEST CRUISER award from BBC Wheels.Power- 18bhp.

MACHISMO-coolest

A real collectors item, the retro styled machismo received the TNS voice of customer award for the no 1 cruiser bike.

The elegant machine is powered by an exceptionally refined 346cc lean burn engine, with a single cylinder,4 stroke air cooled configuration. The beautifully crafted chrome petrol tank comes as a standard fitment. custom made leather saddle bags and wind shield are optional extras. power18 bhp

power.

BULLET 350-the original


The legendary bullet 350 needs no introduction. This classic machine has kept place with advances in engineering and ergonomics.

A long wheel base and bigger tyres increased stability and road grip making it suitable for long distance travel. it also features a neutral finder for an easy shift to the neutral from any gear.

It's aristocratic black and gold livery and thumping engine beat remind passers by that they are in presence of automotive royalty.

power-18 bhp


BULLET ELECTRA -modernised


The Electra is a bullet variant for big city life. A groaning 350 cc engine powers the vehicle.

Push button

start and a transistor coil ignition gives an easy take off. Gas filled shock absorbers in
Electra is better enough to overcome the potholes , speed breakers and such urban road disturbances.


BULLET ELECTRA 5S-amazing drive

This variant from bullet comes with a hand full of user friendly features in it including the

left side 5 speed gear shift.

The glass wool silencer absorbs high frequency noises, which seems to be an unnessessary component.



THRILLED????????????????? AMAZED???????????????


THE ROYAL ENFEILD-BULLET


Let me hope that 'roaring sound machine' be mine with in a couple of years...
But something what really disturbs me is the condition of our public roads. Though major automobile companies comments our INDIA as the paradise of automobiles, i think the automobiles doesnt think so because the roads doesnt seems to be sufficient for the new generation amazing vehicles. Let us pray to our 'road gods' to open their eyes.

@devi.Though der is an alloy wheel option, as i said in d article it's only jus 500 machines available and it's for true bullet lovers who like the bullet in it's original form including the spoke wheels. But actually alloy wheels are better than spoke wheels, in the sense, no attack of rust,less weight brings more mileage and moreover it's good looking na????
