Bro I am more of a car guy but this year my wife demanded Royal Enfield Classic 350 as her birthday gift. I booked it over MIY with all available accessories and yesterday got the delivery. She is really happy and she drove it for almost 3 hours straight….that smile on her face while she was driving….priceless 😊😊
@@oshoosho8466 hearing this for so many years but RR has proven itself from the launch of Meteor 350. Competition's best motorcycle in classic segment has sales similar to Meteor only.
@@uditchandani Today no other Motorcycle is anywhere close to RE. But competition is gradually rising. I find RE Overpriced. It has to offer better Features for same Price. This will definitely eat its fat Profit Margins, hence the Stock Value too😎 I'm not saying that RE will fail, but not a good idea to hold the Stocks for Long Term.
@@oshoosho8466 competition is rising no doubt but the market is also expanding. More people are buying 350 cc+ segment than ever. The only time competition was worrying when Honda launched it's Highness which was a superior product buy RE came back with its Classic reborn and has never looked back.
I own RE Meteor 350. Just 1 month old. It's for daily office commute. Every day I need to travel 100 kms. Need something strong and comfortable.Speed is not a priority for me.Ownwd Bajaj Avenger 220 previously.Had a lot of electronic issues. Forced to sell that bike within a year. I hope the RE will be a reliable one.
Yup, I agree with you cent per cent... At 56 I bought RE HUNTER just to satisfy my emotions.... And, most probably a trip to Leh-Ladakh very soon... But, dear Bulu, I need your good wishes all my way.... Keep up the good work and keep educating us.... Thank you
Finally someone has said good about the Old bullets and I own a 1996 standard 350. The age of the bike is 28 years and 4 months and I'm 27😅. I absolutely love old bullets and that is why I bought it 2nd hand and restored it completely back to its glory with golden painter pinstripes, original replica monograms and decals. It gets a lot of attention of people on the road specially uncles and middle aged mens and they don't hesitate to talk to me about it. Every time I park it somewhere in a public place someone is definitely checking it out. Next month I'm going to Zanskar and ladakh trip on my 96 and this is going to be my dream ride.
Bulubhai, I got my first RE bullet in 1967, the tire rims had written on it Made in England, when i kicked it , it nahed like a horse, this sound came from the compression exit rubber tube which was pinched flat from the company. The Amp meter told me when the piston was on the Top Dead End (tde) by pressing the compression release tiny lever, I kicked and the familiar drumming would start. The manul contact breaker had a capacitor which got shorted out ofter, the contacts had gap adjusting plates which got loose. Had later on got a rocket thin Silencer which had sound that 3 colonies would hear me pass by., this silencer had a shark like fin built in at the end which pointed upwards, like half an arrow end. BULUBHAI you had to be my age so as to enjoy it, it was not just a head turned but the traffic looked at the bike as though it was an aninal from another planet ! My color was metalic orange yellow honey gold with mudguards and frame Black, later on got it to metalic military green, seat too. 😅
In long run RE bikes add more memories compared to others. Own Bullet 500 carburettor version since 2014 still works n looks same it did 10 years ago. Loving it.
@@spcomics7006 Yes. After initial free service period I had serviced it outside and mechanic of the garage has became good friend of mine... RE authorised service centres are pathetic.
Call me fanboy but my first bike was a pulsar 150 dtsi (2012). Rode it for less than a year and sold it for a sprawling new Electra 350 (2013). Had to part it due to personal reason after 5 years. Had the best experience. In 2017 end, situation impoved and bought pulsar 220. Within 6 months, sold it and brought NS 200 (BS4). But the feel of RE kept haunting me and sold it in less than 2 years and bought a BS4 Classic 350. Coming from NS 200, the 350 seemed under-powered. So post 2nd COVID lockdown (late 2021), sold it off and bought myself a pre-worshipped Thunderbird 500 (BS3- 2016). I love this beast every moment and happen to grin whenever I ride it.
Since 2009, I've been riding Royal Enfield motorcycles, starting with the iron cast model. I then transitioned to the Thunderbird AVL and later acquired the Electra twinspark in 2016. While the older Bullets posed numerous challenges and issues, the emotional connection remained strong. However, the twinspark model has proven to be a reliable companion with fewer issues to date. Interestingly, when I visit my mechanic, they often dismiss the newer BS6 models as not worth the investment anymore. Despite trying various other bikes like the Pulsar, Unicorn 150, CBR 250, and most recently, the Suzuki V Strom 250, my bond with Royal Enfield remains unwavering. It's not just a motorcycle; it's an emotion that I cherish deeply.
Great video.. I am 39 year old now in US & just brought Intercepter 650 Baker Express last year.. growing up two of my uncles had Royal Enfield Classic 500. When my parents brought me Hero Honda Passion as 17yr old back in Pune back in 2002.. Royal Enfield was a dream bike..Thanks for great video!!
In 2006, I purchased a Hero Honda Super Splendor 125 cc and rode it for 16 years. In 2022 I bought RE Classic reborn 350 and I'm a very Happy customer of RE now😊
The emotional connect, yeah i see that in my dad, i gifted him a 2018 Classic 350 BS4 after i started earning, and he loves it. RE used to be the fastest and most dreamed of bike of his time, he loves bikes but never purchased one due to responsibilities, so i decided to do it on his behalf. and now after 5 years, i surprised him again by adding a red rooster rumbler exhaust. and unlike the typical RE jargon this one is pretty reliable.
Wonderful video Bulu Bhai I owned so many RE's First one classic 500 (miss it the most), Himalayan, meteor 350, interceptor and now the interceptor anniversary limited edition
I previously owned a CBR 250R and now for the last 2.5 years owning a Dominar 400 UG. I was not at all a fanboy of Royal Enfield. But gradually developed a liking for the brand, especially when they upped their quality. Now it came to a position that I want to own a Royal Enfield. That's how much my liking and desire to own a Royal Enfield has become off late. Since I am a person who does long touring, hence finally made up my mind to buy a Himalayan 450 at the end of this year. Then I can proudly say that I own a Royal Enfield. Just waiting for the tubeless spoke wheels to come for the bike. 🤞

I was a kid when one of my father's friend came in a military bullet to my home. My father took a ride with me seated on the fuel tank, a short but sweet ride, which gave a definite spark to me about the royal experience of a bullet. I was a proud bajaj chethak kid till that moment, papa ka bajaj... hamara bajaj 😉 When i was in high-school, my uncle took a machismo. He was 6feet2 and the way it looked when he rides it make me fall head over heals for the machine. Not only in movies, people in real life also makes deep impressions my friend! The love for RE strengthened in me. I took my first bullet 350 in 2007, which was a 1992 model second hand vehicle, single owner well maintained. For the next 5 years i lived a royal life with my Bullet. It gave me lots of wonderful moments in my life. At that time there we very less bullets on the road and when a fellow bullet owner meet you anywhere there used to a lot of discussions about the vehicles. In 2012 when i sold my buddy and flew abroad, i was sad to let him go. Now, after returning to India last year, i took the new Bullet 350 Maroon, definitely my man is keeping me happy and safe. My passion for bullet stays high as ever. PS: I took a test drive of all new RE models and wanted to take Interceptor 650, but came back to Bullet 350 since it offered the best pillion experience to my wife. Period. 😁
Bulu bhai... When I first met you in Guwahati, I owned a Classic 350 which I took to Ladakh. And now after owning it for 8 years now I own an Interceptor 650. I love both the motorcycles. But to be honest I did a 33 days trip to Ladakh from Guwahati & back.. Apart from my meter cable, I didn't face one single problem. And I must say you have always been an inspiration, I started doing motorcycle rides by watching and getting inspiration from you. Thank you 🙏🏻
I got into riding after seeing lot of bikers riding their royal Enfield on Independence day ride in year 2014 Bangalore. I got very much inspired from that emotion and bought my RE Classic 350 in 2015 and since then n till date enjoying each and every ride on my bike.. now added one more to my collection.. Himalayan 450.. Lot more travel to come on these bikes..❤
Bullu, question for a long haul rider like you: How many REs do you see on the highways? In the cities yes. RE has a loyal city customer base. About 30 to 40 percent are repeat buyers. But as a performance oriented bike, much needs to be done to refine RE. Having said so, RE still has a strong road performance. And the way they market their brand and their showrooms are just miles ahead of their competition.
RE Electra is my first bike I still own, and I bought (2014) it especially for going to Ladakh. It was my dream. I completed my dream in just 6 months after buying my bike. After watching this video, i felt so nostalgic and all those events came to my mind.
I don't like RE bikes... but i like their stocks .. I somehow think many people now-a-days prefer other bikes and the cult following of RE is slowly missing... Especially with so many 400CC bikes in the market now..
I am 67 years old, I am riding Bajaj Chetak Scooter for the last thirty years now I want to give him rest and purchase a bike or scooty but I have knee joint pain in both the legs, is it wise to purchase bike KTM Duke 250 or it will be better to purchase Yamaha Aerox for touring purpose
From Bangalore. I cancelled Bullet booking and went for Honda CB200X. Vehicle Purpose: to swiftly move around the city, good FE, cheap to maintain, fun to ride, look special. Why did I reject RE Classic? - to expensive for the value of adds to me. It's very heavy for modern city traffic conditions. For me it's a good Holiday bike. To drive away from the city for the weekend. Up to 150 kms from City. Longer than that, Cars are better. I don't want to spend 3 L for a weekend bike , which I'm sure i don't drive away from City every week.
THE PARTICULAR VIDEO I WAS EXPECTING FROM THIS CHANNEL. Royal Enfield has improved a lot in terms of quality and services. More video expected from you Bulu Bhai on RE models.
I was not really bothered about cult or emotion etc. when I purchased Standard 350 in 2016. My weight remained within 95-100 KGs and I needed just a "good motocycle" that can offer me a sense of security while travelling at 50-70 KMPH. Also I dislike those plastic egg shells on a vehicle which looks like a false show off to me. Hence I settled for a all metal motorcycle. After 7 years of usage, I can vouch for its stability and reiability. Plus, Standard 350 renders a 42 KMPL mileage even in city rides. Bhai, bewaja koi emotion ziada der tikta nahi. RE is really doing a good and honest job.
Yes sir your information is very useful i had 1987 model 350 that was Unforgotanle i miss every moment now i am thinking to buy same my classic one or 2007 model royal enfield 500cc so how is my choice please advice me sir 👍👏
I was Skeptical because People buy RE bikes due to emotions. Now, I own an Interceptor 650 and I can attest RE bikes are not just bikes, they are a different kind of feeling.
Apnay bohot achay sa samjhaya ki bullet lena ka kya reason hain.wasa jub hum chottay thay to yezdi jada dikhti thy r macho bhy lagty thy r purani jawa rarely dikhty thy
I own an interceptor, since I was waiting for a long time for a twin, I purchased it as soon as it was launched,(1st batch). I love my bike, but my expereince has been really really bad, some or the other things gets screwed up especially alot of electrical issues. Iv towed my bike 5 times so far in my trips. I have to think alot before taking out for my trips. No matter what the feeling of riding it offers if it doesn't give a piece of mind, what's the point. I am looking for an ADV, but no matter how good the new himalayan is , I am NEVER going to buy another Royal Enfield.
After waiting 47 years l bought Thunderbird 350 and last week did my first every 224 km ride with wife. It was a amazing trip, dream to go ladhak some day with her....
Love it or hate it RE rocks bullu bhai 😍👏👍..! I owned a meron classic 350 2013 model.. Sold in last oct 23 nd bought a RE interceptor 650 calli green... Cheers bullu bhai... Happy riding 🙌
Actually royal Enfield bullet used to have exclusivity till 2015 but after that its more common, chapri students and workers doodhwala are purchasing and riding bullet with modification that makes us shift to either dominar bajaj or other company like honda CB 350 highness that is good alternative then RE
Was not a fan of RE but all of a sudden thought to buy one , went to buy classic but liked meteor black 😅 and after owning I should say it's a different feeling than other bikes
Bought RE classic 350 BS IV in the year 2018, with passion of going on road trips. Of course dream destination Leh Ladhak but still counting on it for opportunity 😊
Being a RE owner for 9 years and a owner in the past to, I do not think it is the exhaust note. The reason is more like nostalgia, seat comfort, milage for a big bike, road presence and definitely the torque....
Classic 350 hai mere pas, mere bike 2016 ka hai, mai try kar raha hu agar paise ka intezam ho sake to super meteor 650 lene ka, bachpan se mujhe cruiser bike bohot pasand hai, Terminator 2 mai Arnold Schwarzenegger jab Harley fat boy chalay the to mai fida ho gaya, mai harley ke shoow room pe ja kar dekha v hu uss bike ko, but that was too expensive for me, so from the price point of view super meteor 650 lene ka mann hai, i dont like to go fast but like to glow slow with max 70-80km speed range....
Bullu bhaiya i have hunter 350 and damn she look beautiful every single time I ride on that bike literally sometimes I stop somewhere middle of the road stare at her and rev her throttle to listen to her sweet punchy roar of exhaust and again continue to ride ❤❤
I don't have a royal Enfield but definitely want to own one , I recently got a Karizma XMR and it has some initial issues and problems which I shared with everyone but I did not made a mess of it and shout loud to get attention , Idea was just to solve my problem , understand it so that I can help other to fix the same problem if they have in their bikes logo ko paitence sikhana chahiye thanks bulu bhai
Hero Xtreme 2013 user. No nonsense bike. Nowadays maintenance is just yearly oil change, nothing else. Still able to do 115 km/hr top speed solo & 110 km/hr with pillion (Same speed when bought in 2013). Ridde friend`s BS3 himalayan extensively. Very good bike but then low mileage, Cone set issues, service bill more that his car`s annual maintenance. New gen J series bikes are good but not worth spending that fortune. Brother in law bought Meteor 350 but showroom delivery experience was very bad like bike lelo & futo yaha se. Further we did 500 kms touring ride. Bike struggles to go above 110 km/hr with pillion even though comfort levels are good compared to my bike. Test rode New gen himalayan. Power is crazy & bike do give big bike feel but not usable for family man. Loved meteor very much but felt not worth spending 2.9L OTR (Fully accessorized) if it still struggle to go beyond 110 km/hr with pillion & equipment levels are not that good based on what similar priced segment bikes offering. Accessories prices are ridiculous too, Test rode maverick / HD x 440. Looking at hardware its offering (Healthy torque, Best suspension set up, 6 speed GB with slipper clutch & list goes on), Maverick it good bike but for 6ft guy, that bike looks tiny. So search for prefect upgrade still continues.
2015 unicorn 160 user, done 60000km and only maintanence is oil change every 3500km. 50+ mileage even now. Great experience with the bike but now looking for an upgrade and after extensive research and test rides, finally zeroed in on the Maverick and booked it, mid variant. Great vfm and I'm 5'7, so suits me perfect. For your height scrambler 400x or huscvarna 401 or even KTM adv might suit
Namaste 🙏🏼 Bulu Sir.. main apka bohot bara fan hu..apka opinion main bohot Manta hu.. because mujhe apka har baat main ek helpful & honesty feel hota hain.. koi ve baat agar appne bol dia to wo mere Lia 100% sahi hain.. Main apne dosto ko ve bolta hu apke bare main.. Bulu sir mujhe apka ek opinion chahiye.. Maan to karta Hain ek achha bike purchase Karu but mere pass itna budget nahi hain.. Isliya main Hero Xpulse 200T kharidna chahata huu, for Ladakh tour with pillion. Is it okk or possible?? Please suggest me Sir..🙏🏼🙏🏼♥️♥️ Stay happy and healthy
My first love was my Bullet 350cc in1980 after my first Bike Yezdi 250 in 1970. Those days you had to wait for your number after paying the Advance in full. The roads quality were not this beautiful but road sides were green ., No Super Highways. Still young ones were after Royal Enfield just like you boys now. Love you all.😊😊
I own meteor350 for last 3.5 yrs, 10k oil interval, comfortable, superb brakes, highway mileage is 35+ kmpl city 25,28kmpl , elegant looks, its doesn't go beyond 120 kmph so its safe somehow
My dad just agreed to buy me a bike but under 1.5 lakh, come on man there are no good bikes under that amount, I know he has money but doesn't give me much😢
i have a std 500 from past 8 years and i have completed 56000 kms on it. Of that 30000 are on road trips. Recently it has been give bit problems and maintenance cost is increasing. But will still keep it :)
My initial riding days was with a classic 500. I initially did love the bike because of the thump and looks. I kept riding it and started going for longer rides. This is when I got disillusioned with the bike as it began to struggle on highways. Mind you, this is my personal feel as vibrations were too much for me beyond 60 kmph and at idle. Continued riding it as I could not afford a new bike. Fell out of this obsession with the "feeling" and "character" of the bike. In fact, to me it felt like the bike was telling me how to ride and not riding the way I wanted it to. If I want to cruise at 100 kmph on three-lane highways I should be able to. While it did cruise comfortable below 60 kmph, I felt suffocated. And this bike just completely let me down to the point where I would dread the numb feeling I got in my fingers after even small rides. This coupled with repeated fuel pump issues, horrible quality of parts and very abysmal cold starts made me move on to different bikes . I can understand and empathise with people who want character but implore people to open their minds and let go of that "feeling" as they are missing out on many more refined bikes. Just my two cents. At the end of the day, doesn't really matter what bike you ride, so long as you are able to enjoy the ride. Excellent analysis as always Bulu bhai.
Well put... Only those with an open mind,will learn and evolve. Others will keep falling in the trap of "character", "feel" etc. According to me, RE stands for absolutely pathetic Engineering.
I own RE HUNTER 350 & RE CLASSIC 350 REBORN, Besides i also own a SUZUKI GIXXER SF 250, but whenever i ride the RE motorcycle it feel like no other bike can match the comfort of RE, specially the classic 350 reborn. I feel more engaged with this particular motorcycle whenever i take it to long rides. Moreover, there are many riders even once upon a time i too used to thing that RE is a slow motorcycle. But in our indian road conditions, specially in highways 80-110kmph cruising speed is idle for every motorcycles. And RE does not hesitate to achieve that speed at all. Every riders should ride RE once in a life to experience the engagement of a rider with his motorcycle.
I have been wanting to buy a motorcycle and considering RE as it seems like a good cruising vehicle but feel practicality comes in the way. My better half isn't very keen on learning and would rather have a scooter that has more use cases in day to day life. So a RE or any bike in my case comes across as a selfish move. I could go crazy and get a scooter and RE but then struggle for parking space in the building.
i m not a fan or wanting to own Royal enfield but i like designs of meteor 350, super meteor 650, hunter. and because of features i m impressed by interceptor 650 and new himalayan 450.
I own a Himalayan. I bought it because it made sense for what it gave at what price point....not anything for the RE brand....... Buttttt, I recently rode an old bullet and yes it felt just so so good
Sir i am now planning to buy the bullet 350.. upgrading from Xpulse, found that feel in RE compared to the Honda.. no doubt Honda is better in quality, but bullet has something else.. feel may be

If one doesn't like RE for any reason, just buy Eicher Motor Stocks. It will give good returns to afford any rival expensive bike of your liking.
I have😁 and usually on every Launch Keep doing that 😁
Not a good idea. I think RE has almost reached its Peak. With increasing compitition in the 300+ cc Category, its Market Share might drop😎

RE are bought mostly because of their brand value, they are a good study in marketing and branding and not motorcycle engineering

Right said In movie ads of Re is very strong,it is the area where all other bike manufacturers lack ads.

I was a kid when one of my father's friend came in a military bullet to my home. My father took a ride with me seated on the fuel tank, a short but sweet ride, which gave a definite spark to me about the royal experience of a bullet. I was a proud bajaj chethak kid till that moment, papa ka bajaj... hamara bajaj 😉
When i was in high-school, my uncle took a machismo. He was 6feet2 and the way it looked when he rides it make me fall head over heals for the machine. Not only in movies, people in real life also makes deep impressions my friend! The love for RE strengthened in me.
I took my first bullet 350 in 2007, which was a 1992 model second hand vehicle, single owner well maintained. For the next 5 years i lived a royal life with my Bullet. It gave me lots of wonderful moments in my life. At that time there we very less bullets on the road and when a fellow bullet owner meet you anywhere there used to a lot of discussions about the vehicles. In 2012 when i sold my buddy and flew abroad, i was sad to let him go.
Now, after returning to India last year, i took the new Bullet 350 Maroon, definitely my man is keeping me happy and safe. My passion for bullet stays high as ever.
PS: I took a test drive of all new RE models and wanted to take Interceptor 650, but came back to Bullet 350 since it offered the best pillion experience to my wife. Period. 😁
Bulu bhai... When I first met you in Guwahati, I owned a Classic 350 which I took to Ladakh. And now after owning it for 8 years now I own an Interceptor 650. I love both the motorcycles. But to be honest I did a 33 days trip to Ladakh from Guwahati & back.. Apart from my meter cable, I didn't face one single problem.
And I must say you have always been an inspiration, I started doing motorcycle rides by watching and getting inspiration from you. Thank you 🙏🏻
I got into riding after seeing lot of bikers riding their royal Enfield on Independence day ride in year 2014 Bangalore. I got very much inspired from that emotion and bought my RE Classic 350 in 2015 and since then n till date enjoying each and every ride on my bike.. now added one more to my collection.. Himalayan 450..
Lot more travel to come on these bikes..❤
Bullu, question for a long haul rider like you: How many REs do you see on the highways? In the cities yes. RE has a loyal city customer base. About 30 to 40 percent are repeat buyers. But as a performance oriented bike, much needs to be done to refine RE.
Having said so, RE still has a strong road performance.
And the way they market their brand and their showrooms are just miles ahead of their competition.
सही कहा आपने, बजाज platinum 100 cc की बाइक मैं भी लोग लद्दाख घूमकर आ गये।
I own meteor 350.And thanks for sharing ur valuable feedback like a big brother .
Superb video bulu sir ❤❤
Love a lot 😘❤️
RE Electra is my first bike I still own, and I bought (2014) it especially for going to Ladakh. It was my dream. I completed my dream in just 6 months after buying my bike. After watching this video, i felt so nostalgic and all those events came to my mind.
I don't like RE bikes... but i like their stocks .. I somehow think many people now-a-days prefer other bikes and the cult following of RE is slowly missing... Especially with so many 400CC bikes in the market now..
Bullet become chapris favourite and with doodhwalas and other people buying it in large numbers bullet lost its exclusivity since few years...
I am 67 years old, I am riding Bajaj Chetak Scooter for the last thirty years now I want to give him rest and purchase a bike or scooty but I have knee joint pain in both the legs, is it wise to purchase bike KTM Duke 250 or it will be better to purchase Yamaha Aerox for touring purpose
From Bangalore.
I cancelled Bullet booking and went for Honda CB200X.
Vehicle Purpose: to swiftly move around the city, good FE, cheap to maintain, fun to ride, look special.
Why did I reject RE Classic? - to expensive for the value of adds to me. It's very heavy for modern city traffic conditions. For me it's a good Holiday bike. To drive away from the city for the weekend. Up to 150 kms from City. Longer than that, Cars are better. I don't want to spend 3 L for a weekend bike , which I'm sure i don't drive away from City every week.
Am Also planning for cb200x, only fear is kick rod, will it starts if I leave it for 15 days aside???
THE PARTICULAR VIDEO I WAS EXPECTING FROM THIS CHANNEL. Royal Enfield has improved a lot in terms of quality and services.
More video expected from you Bulu Bhai on RE models.
Sure bro we will make a video on the History of RE, that will be really interesting
❤ very informative video ❤️ 😊😊
I was not really bothered about cult or emotion etc. when I purchased Standard 350 in 2016. My weight remained within 95-100 KGs and I needed just a "good motocycle" that can offer me a sense of security while travelling at 50-70 KMPH. Also I dislike those plastic egg shells on a vehicle which looks like a false show off to me. Hence I settled for a all metal motorcycle. After 7 years of usage, I can vouch for its stability and reiability. Plus, Standard 350 renders a 42 KMPL mileage even in city rides.
Bhai, bewaja koi emotion ziada der tikta nahi. RE is really doing a good and honest job.
I used to think that RE is a construction vibrator with wheels but Fortnine's engine oil forensics changed my perception of the brand
In India it's different,in 2023. Royal Enfield had the biggest recall in india 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Yes sir your information is very useful i had 1987 model 350 that was Unforgotanle i miss every moment now i am thinking to buy same my classic one or 2007 model royal enfield 500cc so how is my choice please advice me sir 👍👏
I was Skeptical because People buy RE bikes due to emotions.
Now, I own an Interceptor 650 and I can attest RE bikes are not just bikes, they are a different kind of feeling.
Bulu bhai I want to buy a 125 cc scooter for city usage
I'm confused b/w Access 125 & N-Torq 125
PLEASE SUGGEST 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Old bullets didn't had fuel gauge, vibrated alot but had feelings. New bullets have fuel gauge, less vibrations but lacks the old one's feelings.
Apnay bohot achay sa samjhaya ki bullet lena ka kya reason hain.wasa jub hum chottay thay to yezdi jada dikhti thy r macho bhy lagty thy r purani jawa rarely dikhty thy
Bought a meteor 350 as my first bike at the age of 27... Love every single ride even small rides to the gym or office ❤
Luv U Bulu Bhai for the clip for the dream bike to take for Laddakh.
Good information. My Dream Bike is Royale Endfild
Proud to be a Royal Enfield owner sending lots of love from Northeast Shillong❤
Bhaiya Ji
Shotgun 650 ka review dena or height 5feet 4inch vale own kr sakte hai kya
Classic 350 was my first bike...back in 2013.... Sold it last year.. had wonderful and beautiful memories with classic... Now planning to buy aerox
Bulu sir I'm own the G2 royal Enfield 1958 model I love this thump and riding quality
conti gt 535, what an amazing bike with Brembo brakes. unfortunately, it is not sold now. It's love at 1st sight.
Aap best biker ho Bulu Bhai, Aap ka video lengthy hai phir bhi saare videoes last talk dekhta hun.❤ Love from Odisha.
🙏
nice video brother ... DIL ME PYAR HONA CHAHIYE.. DHAK DHAK TO BULLET BHI KARTI HAI.
I own an interceptor, since I was waiting for a long time for a twin, I purchased it as soon as it was launched,(1st batch). I love my bike, but my expereince has been really really bad, some or the other things gets screwed up especially alot of electrical issues. Iv towed my bike 5 times so far in my trips. I have to think alot before taking out for my trips. No matter what the feeling of riding it offers if it doesn't give a piece of mind, what's the point. I am looking for an ADV, but no matter how good the new himalayan is , I am NEVER going to buy another Royal Enfield.
most sensible TH-camr 😊❤ From Kolkata
After waiting 47 years l bought Thunderbird 350 and last week did my first every 224 km ride with wife. It was a amazing trip, dream to go ladhak some day with her....
Love it or hate it RE rocks bullu bhai 😍👏👍..! I owned a meron classic 350 2013 model.. Sold in last oct 23 nd bought a RE interceptor 650 calli green... Cheers bullu bhai... Happy riding 🙌
Actually royal Enfield bullet used to have exclusivity till 2015 but after that its more common, chapri students and workers doodhwala are purchasing and riding bullet with modification that makes us shift to either dominar bajaj or other company like honda CB 350 highness that is good alternative then RE
Was not a fan of RE but all of a sudden thought to buy one , went to buy classic but liked meteor black 😅 and after owning I should say it's a different feeling than other bikes
I miss the neutral lever in new bikes....so useful...
Bought RE classic 350 BS IV in the year 2018, with passion of going on road trips. Of course dream destination Leh Ladhak but still counting on it for opportunity 😊
Being a RE owner for 9 years and a owner in the past to, I do not think it is the exhaust note. The reason is more like nostalgia, seat comfort, milage for a big bike, road presence and definitely the torque....
Classic 350 hai mere pas, mere bike 2016 ka hai, mai try kar raha hu agar paise ka intezam ho sake to super meteor 650 lene ka, bachpan se mujhe cruiser bike bohot pasand hai, Terminator 2 mai Arnold Schwarzenegger jab Harley fat boy chalay the to mai fida ho gaya, mai harley ke shoow room pe ja kar dekha v hu uss bike ko, but that was too expensive for me, so from the price point of view super meteor 650 lene ka mann hai, i dont like to go fast but like to glow slow with max 70-80km speed range....
what a absolute gem of a guy Bulu bhai is.
Ekdam dil ki baatein boldi iss video mai💌💌💌💌
Best video on Enfield confution ❤🎉❤🎉
Bullu bhaiya i have hunter 350 and damn she look beautiful every single time I ride on that bike literally sometimes I stop somewhere middle of the road stare at her and rev her throttle to listen to her sweet punchy roar of exhaust and again continue to ride ❤❤
I own a Classic 350 . 10 years of power, respect & love.
Owning a Classic 350 - Stealth Black - Reborn at the age of 24 is just memorable for lifetime. ❤
I don't have a royal Enfield but definitely want to own one , I recently got a Karizma XMR and it has some initial issues and problems which I shared with everyone but I did not made a mess of it and shout loud to get attention , Idea was just to solve my problem , understand it so that I can help other to fix the same problem if they have in their bikes logo ko paitence sikhana chahiye thanks bulu bhai
Bhai kya hua tha xmr mai
What is issue in xmr Bhai bcos main kharidne ka plan kar raha tha 😢
I own 2017 Bullet 500 till now I had no issue.❤
Hero Xtreme 2013 user. No nonsense bike. Nowadays maintenance is just yearly oil change, nothing else. Still able to do 115 km/hr top speed solo & 110 km/hr with pillion (Same speed when bought in 2013). Ridde friend`s BS3 himalayan extensively. Very good bike but then low mileage, Cone set issues, service bill more that his car`s annual maintenance. New gen J series bikes are good but not worth spending that fortune. Brother in law bought Meteor 350 but showroom delivery experience was very bad like bike lelo & futo yaha se. Further we did 500 kms touring ride. Bike struggles to go above 110 km/hr with pillion even though comfort levels are good compared to my bike. Test rode New gen himalayan. Power is crazy & bike do give big bike feel but not usable for family man. Loved meteor very much but felt not worth spending 2.9L OTR (Fully accessorized) if it still struggle to go beyond 110 km/hr with pillion & equipment levels are not that good based on what similar priced segment bikes offering. Accessories prices are ridiculous too, Test rode maverick / HD x 440. Looking at hardware its offering (Healthy torque, Best suspension set up, 6 speed GB with slipper clutch & list goes on), Maverick it good bike but for 6ft guy, that bike looks tiny. So search for prefect upgrade still continues.
2015 unicorn 160 user, done 60000km and only maintanence is oil change every 3500km. 50+ mileage even now. Great experience with the bike but now looking for an upgrade and after extensive research and test rides, finally zeroed in on the Maverick and booked it, mid variant. Great vfm and I'm 5'7, so suits me perfect. For your height scrambler 400x or huscvarna 401 or even KTM adv might suit
nice video Bulu Bhai.... kya pakk raha hai cooker mein 😀😀
Veg he veg bro ghar pe sab veg mujhe chodke 😂
Sir I have a Thunderbird 350 bs 4
I am super happy with my motorcycle.
She sometimes force me to scream and sing songs for her😁 on the highways😁
I am not experienced old RE bikes but experienced himalayan 411 buy renting it in ladakh and now I own himalayan 450 hanle black 🖤💛
Namaste 🙏🏼 Bulu Sir.. main apka bohot bara fan hu..apka opinion main bohot Manta hu.. because mujhe apka har baat main ek helpful & honesty feel hota hain.. koi ve baat agar appne bol dia to wo mere Lia 100% sahi hain..
Main apne dosto ko ve bolta hu apke bare main..
Bulu sir mujhe apka ek opinion chahiye.. Maan to karta Hain ek achha bike purchase Karu but mere pass itna budget nahi hain..
Isliya main Hero Xpulse 200T kharidna chahata huu, for Ladakh tour with pillion. Is it okk or possible?? Please suggest me Sir..🙏🏼🙏🏼♥️♥️
Stay happy and healthy
My first love was my Bullet 350cc in1980 after my first Bike Yezdi 250 in 1970. Those days you had to wait for your number after paying the Advance in full. The roads quality were not this beautiful but road sides were green ., No Super Highways. Still young ones were after Royal Enfield just like you boys now. Love you all.😊😊
If u buy RE , u bring History to ur home...Ye wali feeling and emotion...
Sahi baat 👍
I own meteor350 for last 3.5 yrs, 10k oil interval, comfortable, superb brakes, highway mileage is 35+ kmpl city 25,28kmpl , elegant looks, its doesn't go beyond 120 kmph so its safe somehow
I miss the classic 500 😢 it was a nice helicopter 😮
My dad just agreed to buy me a bike but under 1.5 lakh, come on man there are no good bikes under that amount, I know he has money but doesn't give me much😢
i have a std 500 from past 8 years and i have completed 56000 kms on it. Of that 30000 are on road trips. Recently it has been give bit problems and maintenance cost is increasing. But will still keep it :)
I own six Enfields. Love them all...Each Enfield has its own character.... Enfields are cooool bikes to own. ❤️❤️
My initial riding days was with a classic 500. I initially did love the bike because of the thump and looks. I kept riding it and started going for longer rides. This is when I got disillusioned with the bike as it began to struggle on highways. Mind you, this is my personal feel as vibrations were too much for me beyond 60 kmph and at idle. Continued riding it as I could not afford a new bike. Fell out of this obsession with the "feeling" and "character" of the bike.
In fact, to me it felt like the bike was telling me how to ride and not riding the way I wanted it to. If I want to cruise at 100 kmph on three-lane highways I should be able to. While it did cruise comfortable below 60 kmph, I felt suffocated. And this bike just completely let me down to the point where I would dread the numb feeling I got in my fingers after even small rides.
This coupled with repeated fuel pump issues, horrible quality of parts and very abysmal cold starts made me move on to different bikes . I can understand and empathise with people who want character but implore people to open their minds and let go of that "feeling" as they are missing out on many more refined bikes. Just my two cents. At the end of the day, doesn't really matter what bike you ride, so long as you are able to enjoy the ride. Excellent analysis as always Bulu bhai.
Well put... Only those with an open mind,will learn and evolve. Others will keep falling in the trap of "character", "feel" etc. According to me, RE stands for absolutely pathetic Engineering.
I own RE HUNTER 350 & RE CLASSIC 350 REBORN,
Besides i also own a SUZUKI GIXXER SF 250, but whenever i ride the RE motorcycle it feel like no other bike can match the comfort of RE, specially the classic 350 reborn. I feel more engaged with this particular motorcycle whenever i take it to long rides. Moreover, there are many riders even once upon a time i too used to thing that RE is a slow motorcycle. But in our indian road conditions, specially in highways 80-110kmph cruising speed is idle for every motorcycles. And RE does not hesitate to achieve that speed at all.
Every riders should ride RE once in a life to experience the engagement of a rider with his motorcycle.
RE sell emotions,same as splendor provides all rounder (emotion n simple n best ride) in 100cc segment .
I have been wanting to buy a motorcycle and considering RE as it seems like a good cruising vehicle but feel practicality comes in the way. My better half isn't very keen on learning and would rather have a scooter that has more use cases in day to day life. So a RE or any bike in my case comes across as a selfish move. I could go crazy and get a scooter and RE but then struggle for parking space in the building.
Mere paas himalayan 411 - 2020 bs6 mo. hai bulu bhai or jub mai usko chalata hun toh ek alag sa sakun milta hai ❤
2013 Bullet standard kick start heavy crank.
I didn't buy meteor because i like royal enfield, but because I liked the bike itself and still I love the bike like when I bought it
Bulu bhai , first comment te dauchhi. Reply te deba,, jai jagannath..
Jai Jagannath bhai
i m not a fan or wanting to own Royal enfield but i like designs of meteor 350, super meteor 650, hunter. and because of features i m impressed by interceptor 650 and new himalayan 450.

Buttttt, I recently rode an old bullet and yes it felt just so so good
Amazing bro
Sir i am now planning to buy the bullet 350.. upgrading from Xpulse, found that feel in RE compared to the Honda.. no doubt Honda is better in quality, but bullet has something else.. feel may be
Very nice Bhai ❤
Sir , I have one bullet standard 500 and classic 350 and now I booked himalayan 450 .....amazing feelings with Royal enfield ❤
Classic 350 dark gunmetal grey given by my mother it's not just a bike it's an emotional ❤😌
