The Electra was the surprise Royal Enfield model to win our three Bullet comparison test earlier this year. It managed to pip the T’bird and Machis
mo to the finish post and came up tops in spite of not using fresher AVL technology as present on its siblings. The Electra offers the most unadulterated Royal Enfield experience, with all the trappings of a character-abundant classic.
Now, its new two-tone paint job makes it a shade more attractive, and to go with its show it retains stable manners and decent ride quality. Although some hardcore aficionados may bemoan the gearshift lever shifting to the left with extra legwork involved playing with the new cog, we uphold the changes. They serve to improve and get Enfield moving with the times, albeit slowly. Better 50 years late, than never.
