I am a hardcore fan of Royal Enfield and I endorse this more than any other brand due.
My family owns a matte black version of Royal Enfield Thunderbird. I am riding this bike for about three months now and just loved it. It has a apealing look and everyone from a kid to old men have a sight while I ride it.
It has a powerful engine which is suberp for ride in every condition from hill to highway. Ride is very confortable and the bike makes less noise which is good for ears. Maintainance cost is also low. Only the fuel comsumption is a bit high.
I would definately recomend this bike.
