This is the most traditional and royal bike of india. I would recommend black colour, as it shows its grace in black. The kick might appear a bit hard to start and not all may be able to start it.
I am a proud owner of RE Bullet 350 Twinspark UCE model. Note that this review is not classic or tbts model but for the new standard bullet.First about the looks there is no change as the old retro bullet look with the gold livery emblem with the name royal enfield is maintained. The old 1963 look has still been preserved and nothing less earns the name on the tank.The brake pedal is on the right and the gear shift is on the left .This is a 5 speed 350cc std bullet which now comes with the new UCE engine.
The UCE engine on which I have done 3000 kms gives me a mileage of 41 kmph after two free services.Earlier I used to get about 43 kmph mileage but I installed a short bottle upsweft goldie silencer.Now I get the old bullet thump though the mileage reduced a little . The bike is superb in terms of handling and stability and comfortable for long tours.Although there are no disc brakes the drums do the job efficiently .I have covered 250 km stretches about 3 times easily with stops only for breakfast and lunch just to test how much maintenance is required and to calculate the exact mileage after hitting the reserve.Trust me no money on maintenance was spent apart from changing the fork oil and cleaning the air filter.Also the bike behaves very well during constant heavy monsoon showers
