Royal Enfield Classic 500

@deol_bullet Yes it would be better than 350 with respect to power and maintainance. @vinjaram Why don't you keep RD350 and also park C5 by side? Anyway how much you are expecting for RD? I would be interested. @Cruiser_tanveer This is a great bike. In Pune the waiting period is 10 m...onths.Read More

@pheonixreloaded My bike is giving me 30+. If I fill it on Shell pump it gives me around 34 (sure there is diff.) Worst I have got is 26 but that was before 1st service. 30 is not too bad for such a beast. Many jap 150-180 gives 40-45. FI should not be concert, today there are other bikes in the m...arket with FI. I was also a bit skeptical initialy but this require NO maintenance. RE should give a good AFter sales for EFI bikes otherwise they will screw their business. Classic is a prime product for them. 500 is worth every penny spent, believe me. You will never be disappointed.Read More

@tilakraj You are partially correct. However, I checked with Area Service Managers of RE and he confirmed that new Classics are shipping with new chain guard. I tried loosen up chain and it makes noise even with riding solo.

I have read somewhere that its the chain cover alignment issue. If someone from RE is reading this, can you confirm? This issue has been reported by other owners as well. Also, I'm not riding my bike because I got service appointment towards end of next week. RE needs to improve here. Earlier th...ey said that Classic owners will get special treatment with seperate service areas for classic in their workshops. And that was just marketing gimmic, I believe.Read More

This is my first ever review on my beast. It has clocked around 500km and is due for first service. I owned a Maroon CL500, arguably first CL500 in Pune. I have named her after a great worrier "Achilles". Its a great bike. I am a all time bullet fan. Since my childhood I am admiring this grea...Read more
