This guy doesn't waste time. He starts immediately with clear and crisp information. Sound quality is good. Technical aspects are cleared with good reasons. Bro, keep it up.
Very sensible budget mods you've done. Thanks for taking the time to share them. You just earned another subscriber. Greetings from a rare Enfield owner in the USA! I've got one of the old "Iron Barrel" model 2005s in that green "Military" trim forbidden by law in India except for the military and police. You hardly ever see Enfields here, but that might slowly change with those new 650 twins. Thanks again, Bro! And well done.
2 years before i met with a minor crash on my Thunderbird with those RD handle bar( after market ) and i found out that those handle bars got bend and i had to cancel that journey . They will even bend if your motorcycle slips down from the side stand so it's better for you (long distance riders) to use alternative handle bars from the showroom itself ie: you can fix handle bars of Himalayan or interceptor 650 and they are more reliable , you can fix those handle bar guards on them 😊
I don't think even RE handle bars are strong enough. I was using my stock handle bar(Now i have RD) until i met with a minor accident. My bike didn't fall down, but the on sudden break the bike slipped and moved forward and stopped by hitting on the exhaust of another bike. Everyone including me thought my bike had no issues, but soon after the ride i gave it for service and found my bike had handle bar bent, wheel alignment change and fork bent. It was a very minor accident but the cost of repair was 6k. :(
Awesome video as always, you know how to keep things simple, always to the point, concise and precise. Thanks to you I discovered places like Valparai, Sholayar, Vagamon etc, went to all those places after I saw how well u presented them in your vlogs. Pls don't ever change your style of presentation, intro music etc, it's what keeps me glued to this channel
its a gud thng u chose to work on ur bike urself rather than handing it over to some random mechanic. ths bike is going to b a very special part of ur life.
First of all . First time in utube really frank video which is usefull. Instead of modification and crap things.. Very detailed approach. Appreciated. Btw please pass through the shop names in chennai pudupet.
Looks great ! Just one suggestion, try to get rid of the bend pipe wrap.. it traps the heat that needs to be released and may damage the pipe in long run
nice additions, for me I would have put larger hand guards on because I don't like wet hands and I like to ride with lighter gloves but you have those cool gloves which I like the looks of, the fork gaiters are a wise addition, good job
It's really superb and elegant i also loved the way your your self worked on it, one small feed back from my end is that the wind visor would look good and eventually protect you from the wind blast. Also gives an amazing look to the bike
The bike looks great. Just one suggestion, change the brake fluid, brake fluid can go off over time, it's hygroscopic, it attracts moisture and will corrode the metal in your brake system over time. Just flush out and replace the brake system with new fluid ;-) I do it every year or so to keep the brakes in tip top condition, If your brake fluid is discoloured you are already in trouble......
It's is really amusing to see that those who use all the foul language in their videos get almost 10 million subscribers and those who speaks really well don't get recognized properly. Rohit should be having more subs. Keep up the good work Buddy and you will reach heights. My speaking is not that good but I learn a lot from you and it helps in my Motivational videos.......,....... Consulting Positivist.
Good decision with the battery ,exides are super awful ,I've changed it twice in a year on my 350,I recently switched to amco because of this...love the way you've revamped the motorcycle ....looking forward to more great content from you
You did a nice job explaining what you did and why you did it - and I like your thoughts about the new battery. . The headlight grill is not giving me any love but everything else on your bike looks great. Thanks for sharing.
rohith bhai faith is awesome even i have similar modifications on my thunderbird back rest an all. rohith bhai great job . bhai your a inspiration for me . this is your big fan from hyderabad.
It's great that you do the work yourself. Your bike looks simply elegant. Have you found any difference in handlebar vibrations WRT to original one? I have Bullet 500 and handlebar vibrations are tremendous.
I think we're ready to go now!! But, to where? In these summer months, with the monsoon about to land. Hopefully, the answers await in the next episode! Waiting for the ride to start.
I'm into modifying my Thunderbird 2017 with meteor right , left mount switch assembly with its master cylinder meteors headlight assembly and finally meteors digital speedometer with GPS
Very nice modification jobs. I have also changed the handlebar to RD and have done the same stickering work on the speedometer console. Not sure about the practicality of the front headlight grill but wouldn't that decrease the illumination of the light (not in a considerable amount but still)? What kind of paint job have you done on the front suspension? Also check Apache's mirror, it looks better and have littile more visibility than the stock one. And why not have the aux light as a backup incase the chinese headlight gives up? Coincidentally I have the "I don't trash my travel" at the same place as you. 😁 Happy Riding.
although ur saddle guard looks absolutely fine and i didnt knew that any brand provides this so i already made a same change through a local veldor guy costing only Rs.250. overall the your bike now looks awesome.
Hi bro, nice mods. I have made some changes in my bullet std 350. Front has become alot lighter . My handle wobbles lot on 80-90kmph since there is more weight on rear end. Could u pls guide me how do I reduce excess weight on rear and balance it with front end. Also am keen to make my bike more like scrambler . Pls share ur inputs for DIY on this. Keep up the good work ✌️👍.
Those power leds are tend to overheat and blow up in a short time due to poor or no ventilation in your headlight so think again before you put yourself on a long trip.
Any other tires that you could suggest on budget. The stock tyres are kind of slippery. Another issue is my front suspension makes a noise like it compresses and hits even on small bumps. Tried repairing it multiple times with mechanics but the problem exists although I have spent quite an amount on it already. Heard of any such problem and how to get that fixed ?
Hi nice travel diary and accessories. Last end od the year I was purchase thunderbird 350 and I am also love to travel with my RE. I saw one new thing on your bike is headlight grill so I want to know where I can get this grill for my thunderbird 350. please help me to get this grill.
Sir, I am still mulling over as to buy Dominar 400 or Himalayan BS6. I test drove Himalayan and it was excellent. I am yet to test drive D400. Since you have ridden both, which one would you suggest. Beggining from short tours, I would like to stretch myself to long tours. I might take my better half on pillion as well for some tours. I will also get in touch with you through your mail id after getting myself the bike sometime later.
You could have changed the exhaust, a performance exhaust like Red Rooster Performance, a Performance Spark Plug like NGK Iradium, and tuning carb for more air fuel ratio would make increase in performance!
Royal Enfield surely brings out the mechanic in one....
Lol
This guy doesn't waste time. He starts immediately with clear and crisp information. Sound quality is good. Technical aspects are cleared with good reasons. Bro, keep it up.
Thank you!!
Thoda kam chaat

You and gopro man are two of my favorite people, so modest, minimalist and interesting .All the best for your rides :)
Getting myself a Thunderbird. This really helped me with sorting out what I wanted on my bike!
The major attraction is not the byke it is you.you make things look so easy ....❤️
one of the best practical stuff done onto a TB, I have ever seen at least. Waiting for your travel videos eagerly

J k woooww thanks, I was wondering if Himalayan handlebars could have been possible
I don't think even RE handle bars are strong enough. I was using my stock handle bar(Now i have RD) until i met with a minor accident.

What about vibrations as compared to stock handlebar? Do you feel more vibrations on RD style than stock handlebar?
Your are not alone to cut short your journey there are several RE owners.
@@amitinchal77 that is something I m baffled about too. I think yes. Pls let me know what have you found on it
Never going to take an Enfield..but watched the whole video to listen to his simple and neat presentation
All i want to say is you have a clearer explanation than the rest of the youtube.
Thank you
Sweet, Minimalistic, Classy and Elegant..as always my friend..👍
I have watch you in videos
The bike is looking great now, very utilitarian, ready for the road. Well done!
Awesome video as always, you know how to keep things simple, always to the point, concise and precise.

"It has a saree guard. So all is good" the things that cops look out for to determine the road worthiness of bikes 🤣
If u own an RE u will become a mechanic...Gr8 mods very practical..
What a crisp video!
Also your mods make 100 times more sense than the RE Trials!
its a gud thng u chose to work on ur bike urself rather than handing it over to some random mechanic.
ths bike is going to b a very special part of ur life.
RE owners are the true helpers of mechanics.
Best Indian vlogger... Infact one of the best vloggers in world
One of the most simplistic and best modification video on internet...please provide the buying link
First of all . First time in utube really frank video which is usefull. Instead of modification and crap things.. Very detailed approach. Appreciated. Btw please pass through the shop names in chennai pudupet.
Bro please make a video on the basics every RE guy should know so that he can work on the bike when faced with a problem on the road.
I bought thunderbird after watching your rides back in 2017,still love the bike, except vibrations
Clear cut no nonsense straight to the point
Looks great ! Just one suggestion, try to get rid of the bend pipe wrap.. it traps the heat that needs to be released and may damage the pipe in long run
Best modification i have ever seen, simple, elegant and classy. Nice job bro. I wish to do same on my TB350.😀
Bro how were the Timsun Tyre performance?? Kindly answer
Takes a lot of patience to put up with the Thunderbird. Especially the 500. I had a 350, 2013, sold it without regrets for an interceptor.
Mindblowing changes. And faith looks awesoome . Surely faith will repay your work. ❤️❤️❤️
RD 350 handlebars rules anyday. Comfortable in all kinds of roads. Hope to see you on NERM this year
nice additions, for me I would have put larger hand guards on because I don't like wet hands and I like to ride with lighter gloves but you have those cool gloves which I like the looks of, the fork gaiters are a wise addition, good job
Slick!!!! Can't wait to see Faith 2.0 in action!
Coolest travel vloger on earth,May be overwhelming,but thats the truth 😎

Good command of English bro .. keep it up. Excellent info video btw .... It's a YES from me.....!!!
Modified lights like these will put tremendous strain on people driving from opposite side. We need to be considerate about them.
12:44 is going down as my new desktop wallpaper ❤️

Watched the intro ... paused... hit like.... played the rest ..... loving it

Very realistic and awesomeeeee....
Bhai.. An advice.... Please shoot with adequate sun light....whole effort gone for six...
Everything you have changed was good and smart but I absolutely missed that original backrest which comes up with the thunderbirds pillion seat
😍😍😍😍 glad to see you back sir...... your Thunderbird 👌👌👌
Eagerly waiting your travel vlogs.
rohith bhai faith is awesome even i have similar modifications on my thunderbird back rest an all. rohith bhai great job . bhai your a inspiration for me . this is your big fan from hyderabad.
Waiting eagerly for the day when the bike is loaded with the new saddle bags and tank bag 😃 It's gonna rockkkk 😍
Toll free traveller ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Sweet. Keep some cable ties and lock ur fork gaters so no dirt goes inside.
Surely Bhai deserves 1million
One of best & simple vlog. Keep up the good work.
Your videos are really inspiring. Thanks
It's great that you do the work yourself. Your bike looks simply elegant. Have you found any difference in handlebar vibrations WRT to original one? I have Bullet 500 and handlebar vibrations are tremendous.
Coolest Biker of India 🇮🇳 🔥🔥🔥👍💯💥
Really nice modification... Just want to know... What kind of paint have you used to paint the engine of the bike???
I think we're ready to go now!! But, to where? In these summer months, with the monsoon about to land. Hopefully, the answers await in the next episode! Waiting for the ride to start.
Just ensure wiring are done all propely for the headlight not wire cut or touching the body of bike . My suggestion carry a small pair of extra light
Super brother... Simple yet astonishing.... That's how #TFT influence...
Good job, clean and neat am planning do the same on my 2016 model thunderbird.
I wanted to know your experience with handle bar??
I'm into modifying my Thunderbird 2017 with meteor right , left mount switch assembly with its master cylinder meteors headlight assembly and finally meteors digital speedometer with GPS
Cost cutting expenses, reliable and making the touring comfortable. Wonderful information!!!friend 👌👌👌
Nice mods , sensible and makes the bike look better. I thought u were from Bangalore, though the bike is Mumbai registered
Faith is looking more better now Bro ....👌👍
You should change the mirror too , avenger mirrors are excellent fit
MODIFICATIONS PART WERE UR POINT OF VIEW WAS COOL
I am not sure, but the front tyre is put opposite direction, just make sure the direction, I am guessing with the thread pattern.
handlebars put geniune ones .. they bend or sometimes even break .. #ridesafe
Very nice modification jobs.
I have also changed the handlebar to RD and have done the same stickering work on the speedometer console.

looks awesome mate! cant wait for the next travel videos!
I hope you wont have any problems with that handle bar. The bike as a whole looks dope.😎
How does a tube less tyre work on a spoke wheel????
Would the inner tube hold up in case something pierce the tyre all the way through? 🤔
If you use inner tube in tubeless tyre.. if got any puntcher air will leak wia Mouth of the tube
Just can't wait for the travel vlogs bro!! 👍
Hey buddy, I liked the handle bar and knuckle guard.
Can you please share the link for the handle bar
Brothers Tell me the place where you did modification. Really impressed with your modification
Bike looks amazing and looks more proportionate witjout any major mods... great job
Hi bro, nice mods. I have made some changes in my bullet std 350. Front has become alot lighter . My handle wobbles lot on 80-90kmph since there is more weight on rear end. Could u pls guide me how do I reduce excess weight on rear and balance it with front end. Also am keen to make my bike more like scrambler . Pls share ur inputs for DIY on this.
Keep up the good work ✌️👍.
Bike is looking dope as your vlogs have always been...
Those power leds are tend to overheat and blow up in a short time due to poor or no ventilation in your headlight so think again before you put yourself on a long trip.
Actually the bike major attraction is headlight and headlight grills ..👍🏼and handlebar also looks perfect to the bike.....🤘🏼
It's nice u
work on ur bike to some extent
I try my best
I would suggest you add reflective stripes on the bike for asthetic and safety reasons.
Awesome brother doing great job and inspire people to do them by own
Hi Solance is a VRLA battery (Lead-Acid) battery. Very few make 14AH battery - other than Exide it would be Sonic & Tata
Simply yet classy 👍
It’s looking something different and attractive
Keep doing rock on roads
This is MrGone from Hyderabad

Hi Sir from your riding experience which is best in RE Thunderbird or classic 350
HEARD the head lamps cost less in delhi area, the luggage idea was new man
It's fabulous modification 🤙
Why did You change the crashbars? Do You think the new ones are better for touring?
Yours is the only TB I like, amazing video Rohith, you are a minimilist, make a video on the minimilsm.
Hi buddy, how’s your tire performance... which tyre you suggest for TB 350
Hi, I own classic 500 and was wondering how did you polish or repaint your rims? Could you please give more info on that?
Sir, I am still mulling over as to buy Dominar 400 or Himalayan BS6. I test drove Himalayan and it was excellent. I am yet to test drive D400. Since you have ridden both, which one would you suggest.
