Royal En field Thunderbird 500
I like the following:
Excellent power and torque: beneficial to both the highway and city riding
Superb handling and riding quality
Sharp brakes
Powerful projector lamp headlamp
Two-pod back-lit instrument cluster with digital displays
Front foot-rest pegs have movable springing joints, which will absorb the shock in case of a hit
Rider-friendly handlebar position and foot-rest pegs: useful for long rides
Excellent fit and finish compared to the other models of Royal En field
Excellent company-owned AS at Chennai with customer-friendly facilities
The last, but not the least, rider's seat provides maximum comfort to the rider.
I dislike the following:
Digital display does not provide fuel efficiency in kmpl
Quirky fuel gauge: the bars change abruptly several times
Absence of 12 V charger for this premium highway cruiser
Rear tail lamp & indicator cluster and registration number plate alignment points upwards by several degrees to the horizontal
After buying this premium bike, Royal Enfield Brand Store did not provide key chains ['You have to buy this as accessory, Sir!'] and provided all the documents in a paper envelope that gave away the very next day!
Thanks
