Big shoutout to instagram.com/_._tharun_._/ for lending me this unique diesel motorcycle ✌🏼
A properly tuned bike would give 100-120 kmpl my uncle used to ride this he used to calculate it as liter per hours 🤣1 liter for 2 hours of continuous riding
This is only for the person had the habbit of it
I had the petrol one both 350 and 500....
@@AN-nn5si Incidentally I have seem the same engine used by the local “Ganna juice” Sugarcane juice vendors. They use the same engine as the powerhouse that runs their “squeezer machine”.
After seeing the engine I’ve jokingly asked them “kitna deti hai” they said 100Rs diesel is enough for a whole day’s worth of operation. And mind you that engine is kept on idle status for the whole time that stall is open. All he does is pull on a lever (acceleration cable) to increase the revs and get more power when the cane is to be squeezed.
Bro it's not radiator ites air cooling engine ites part of Crank I forgot name
Royal Enfield also used to sell Ensign.
The only Royal Enfield with a 150 CC engine. Which they used to call mini bullet.
Our family had one, which unfortunately we sold last year.
Woahh, bro i think it was an imported motorcycle if i am not wrong, bro what a unique bike, why did u sell it 🥲
Ensign was 150cc 2stroke quite a rare bike pre 1959! & Mini bullet was the 200cc Villers engine which was in 70's
Bro Mini Bullet had 200cc Engine, I still have it in my home, later our mini bullet was converted into diesel due to lack of availability of that 200cc engine parts . . . . . We still have that diesel converted mini bullet at home, it has a self starter as well . . . . .
There was Enfield Sherpa 173 cc villiers engine. 😁
Lucky fellows
Good One!! @ Faisal Khan.
I still own one and use it as a daily driver here in Kochi, Kerala. When it comes to vibrations I truly agree (it gives amazing full body massage :P ), but I've always felt that keeping the revs low and speeds in the 40 -50 KMPH is the sweet spot for my Diesel Enfield. And yes, I only ride it around it because the fuel cost gives me around 70 KMPL on average. But now the novelty factor has kicked in and makes me proud to say that I ride around in a truly unique motorcycle, which is a piece of history in itself.
What are the reactions of people on petrol pump😅
Faisal : diesel is a diesel is a diesel is a diesel..
Also Faisal : not here..😆

It should be hours per litre then.
@@vickee86 I think I am weak at english
@@vickee86 why not litres hour??
@@niranjankedambadi litre per hours means you are saying it can consume more fuel that is more than a litre per hour which is contradiction to your other statement 1 litres per two hours.
Wow
This is not RE Taurus. It is RE petrol bullet swaped with Greaves Diesel engine from local mechanics which is also endrosed by RTO. Taurus will look different in terms of Engine and paint scheme. Diesel bullets are more popular here in Tamil Nadu.!
Correct
Its RE taurus. You cant endorse such diesel engine in a petrol vehicle legally by govt dept.
You can do it as if u have some jugaad
@@Turbo_Charged. Really..?? Come to Tamilnadu you can see lot of endrosed bullets.
@@arunabiramjayachandran6041 That is illegal
Mind boggling phenomenal Faisal Bhai💥 Glad owning one these which was bought in 1982 by my dad in army... The toughest thing is to compress the engine and pumping and starting... But once u get the technique u owe the whole city such a attention grabber it is.. Evryone will jus be lookin at it cuz of its sound and vibration. Its an absolute beast ❤️
Diesel bullet in 1982 🤔🤔
@@SB-qk3by yeahh!!
Only? I guess there was a model named Taurus which was diesel too. I knew an ex-army guy who had lost his left arm but would ride Taurus and the clutch was on the right (modified) along with the accelerator. He was one hell of a rider
PS: a lot of these bikes are found in TN Coimbatore region
bhai jis gaadi ka review kar raha hai Faisal uska hi naam hai Taurus. 325cc Laumbardini engine producing 3hp and 15nm torque.

My uncle use to own this. In Delhi winter morning my uncle use to send my poor cousin to warm up the engine. So the positive thing for my cousin is that he has good calf muscles.
Faisal to himself: I love diesel cars but here I get a diesel motorcycle 🤣😂😂

That uncle was reviewing his own scooty pep+ kudos 🙏🏻
i owned this one between 2017 and sold off in 2020 after throughly enjoying it ! cant go beyond 40 kmph cuz the vibrations kill you , i used to get 76kmpl average on this. !
0:57 : thats a fly wheel cover. a lot of people use to tie rop on the flywheel then pull and start it !
3:01 : thats actually the oil filter.
5:15 : there was another Indian company called Sooraj who also manufactured Diesel motorcycle; absolute copy of the Taurus but the side panel's were a bit different
How was the bikes condition? What's the cause for vibration above 40 kmph?
@@arjj1 i had overhauled the engine in 2017 and used t for 400 km. smooth until 40kmph after that being diesel there too much of torque your chasis can take and the engine itself is very flimsy in that way can go to 60 if you are of with that that much vibrations but beyond 60 no chance.
@@piyushchowre902 niceee 👌
In 4:44, that grab rail is used to lift and put centre stand .
sound of this bike is almost like a tractor😂
Eicher 242 ❤️😂
Isme hasna Hai kya??
Yeah actually the same thought came to my mind at 09:22 😂
ok
Not like tractor it's like Mahindra Maximo & Tata ACE 😅
Due to very high Torque to Power ratio (2.4) it gives a good mileage.
Actually this is not the only diesel motorcycle. There were two models on sale. There was the Royal enfield Taurus and the second model was Sooraj 325 diesel. These look identical.
Absolutely love your content ❤️
We had one of these back in the early 2000s. We had a milk business and my uncle used to haul big ass milk cannisters on this.
Infact if I know correctly we have always had a Royal Enfield in the family for past 40 years. Currently have Thunderbird. Planning to upgrade to SM 650 as soon as I can.
Sm full form?
Super Meteor
Same happened with yamaha RX100 due to emissions and two stroke... But this being a diesel would have any how been discontinued due to emissions had RE updated the diesel engine this would have been a great buy even to this day... Nice to see..👍
Great sense of humor. I'd believe anything this guys said.
One thing I like about Faisal is, he speaks a lot, but when it comes to video title, it’s concise.
if this bike were in my country, it'll be in a beautiful condition.
many people love classic bike here.
Awesome as always !!! Please also review RE Explorer, RE Machismo LB, RE Lightning, Yezdi Jawa, Rajdoot, etc.............
I think this engine modified used in van to carry good in the villages of West Bengal with insane notice & air pollution & no breaks.
Bike which you are riding is not in good condition
Few points to correct
1. There are officially 2 Diesel bikes ever sold in India
1. Royal Enfield Taurus
2. Sooraj Diesel
3. Petrol bullet covert to Greaves Diesel engine on bullet (not company fitted)
It's small trick to start this bike,
you just need to pull up a decompression nobe which is near to a piston head then have to kick slow twice to make compression and mostly by 3rd kick it will start bcz it's Diesel engine which doesn't have spark plug to ignite.
It doesn't need to pour diesel in that hole which showed we have to pour it only when it's extremely cold condition.
2. The bike which you are riding is not Taurus it's Diesel bullet which is petrol bullet convert to diesel with Greaves 6.5hp 15nm torque @3600 rpm. On Taurus engine has slightly lower power with round engine cover
It's very nice bike just need to drive differently
Yeah it vibrates alot
I have Diesel bullet and I am very happy to using on a daily basis
New generation bikers will never understand this beauty ..
My father uses a an 1985 model "Hero Honda sleek " which is at those days believed to give 80kms per litre . And I am happy cause it works till now and still gives min 50kms per litre , And maintaining the stock look of the vehicle till now
I also have cd100 deluxe ✅️ 35yrs done
As classic as it can get💙
Proud to be a owner of diesel bullet 💯
Brakes are absolutely no problem at all. I wrote RE 2000 MODEL when i was in 4th standard. And it was pretty easy to handle.
Thank you after years I have laughed with joy to see an beast again and I will find and get this
Key takeaways:
- A diesel is a diesel is a diesel.
- 1980s to 2000.
- 70 km/L.
- Massage function. (Vibrations)
- Faisal: "What the fluff!"
Faisal's struggle with kicking is unintentionally hilarious 😂🥲
Most lovable bike from Royal Enfield 😍 ❤...
Nop
This enfield taurus was a unique diesel bike in those times.
I don't mean no disrespect and acknowledge all the hard work you've put into creating this content.
THIS MY FRIEND IS NO RE TAURUS BUT A CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE USING THE LOMBARDINI PUMPSET ENGINE WIDELY USED IN SOORAJ MOTORCYCLES AS WELL.
i USED TO OWN A FEW AND AM NOW JUST LEFT WITH 2 AND BOTH ARE ORIGINAL RE TAURUS BUILT USING THE CROMPTON GREAVES ENGINE.
I was laughing like crazy when faisal was trying to start this beast
The first and the last diesel bike in india.
Reminded me of the Torque rush of the swift... That was awesome i drove it in 2014 maybe
There used to be another diesel bike on sale named Sooraj 325.
Old is gold...😍😍😍
Faisal there is one correction.. this is not the only diesel motorcycle... There is another diesel motorcycle was there ,and that's name is Suraj .
Sounds like a generator...😅🤣💥
and also like tempos
My buddy did not do full research. This is not company Diesel. Its a modified petrol bullet with a Greaves engine. Original Taurus is way more beautiful to look at.
One uncle used to drive this near my home. One day I saw him putting blue kerosene in the fuel tank. What kinda engines this bikes had? Crazy. 😅
Hi, Faisal. You are doing great work in explicating all automotive and their features. Can you add another blog for real-time mileage too irrespective to the ARAI claim reports. This will be helpful for many enthusiasts.
I never get bored of ur vlogs♥️
Faisal is a 2 k kid who has no clue of this legendary bike and crase it had during 80s. I understand his frustration. I am surprised he was even able to ride it.
That uncle on the pep 😂😂😂
My 2005 scooty vibrates even more 🥲
Hi Faisal i didn't expected any diesel bike or bullet Amazing job faisal
Horn doesn't work because horn need not work 🚫
Watching Faisal Khan's video I learnt English Perfectly Thankyou Faisal Sir ❤️😂
I can’t believe this i was thinking of diesel bullet and u uploaded this
Hi, I have a dedicated channel to Diesel bullet and have it modified to 10 HP with LD440 engine and done Ladakh on diesel bullet.
Starting spoound of the bike reminded me of those old disel generator
Hey Faisal! Please review Royal Enfield Bullet 350 Standard. Plz plz plz 🙏🙏
With all du respect this is not a machine for you for review. It deserves more which can't afford.
Faisal bhai we need a Ci engine standard bullet(right side gear petrol) review also but please use a good condition bike 😹
Fact-checking the video unfortunately sir... First, the title is wrong!!! Sooraj 325cc Diesel was another diesel motorcycle which was sold in India. Sooraj was a company based in Saharanpur. And guess why RE came up with the Taurus... There were folks who were mounting the Greaves Diesel Engine on Bullet and it was becoming pretty popular in the south, especially in TN!!! Second, the smallest capacity product of Royal Enfield was the Enfield Mofa 22cc
Perhaps they should mass manufacture royal enfield diesel bike in Malaysia for ASEAN markets....also give a lot of ASEANs anti aging leg exercise required to start the bike.....sorry too disturb...
Recently seen Gangan chaudhary's video on it, and you came with this.
I had one of in 2011 that can give 80 kmpl mileage most difficult task is how to start this bike
Bro I like ur videos kindly make a video on XUV 400... 🙏🏻😀
Epic vlog... one of those with lots of humour and comic :D .. Very Natural and Great work!!
This bike had a unique feature which was Butt massaging function.
Faisal never riding anything in top gear. This time had fun faisal obsessing to reach too gear.
Gear box right side creates some confusion, once you get used to it it’ll be smooth, had got opportunity to drive it couple of time , the thump it generates is awesome, could feel till 16 feet
nice old classic Enfield Diesel. Sweet
When you are angry
Just drive this bike
You will forget everything
And gratitude when you reach the destination and remembering why was i angry
Faisal -: Diesel is a diesel is a diesel......But not this diesel🤣
There is so much vibration that you cant even hear exhaust🤣
Feel and Soul of Old Royal Enfield bikes With Ulta Gear Lever & Rear Brake will never come to new royal enfield bikes
watching you since 15 k subscribers. loved the videos as always. keep the content coming in.
*_Fuel economy is the trump card 💖 of this motorcycle other than the rest of the enfiled series out there 🦋_*
I have this and used regurly no issue exept vibration and do not go more then 70 km
This vlog is so much fun man 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You haven't seen A 1960 Bullet Brother just try to review it they are really Charming...this diesel isn't official enfield's
Dahi will become lassi 🤣🤣🤣
That was that slowest "off we go" ever
Actually Diesel bullet is a very good bike with good mileage and good pickup. The Bike in this video is not well maintained.
That's close to my home. Hope you had a good time!
In terms of vibrations Enfield machismo AVL engine also does vibrations alot make a video on that too its a petrol engine with 50 kmpl mileage and it can start and work without battery too
Check out the petrol CI.. I'm sure you'll love it..
The best part of the video when faisal sweating for the kick to get started
Rofl
Also do a review of Royal Enfield Standard "CI' engine
Old uncle vibrating in winters😂
No Faisal was Harmed during the Vlog 🍁
You can make a vlog on yamaha ybx too.. a legendary motorcycle from yamaha
Its not radiator, its fly wheel of engine. 😊
There must be generator near by?
Hey faisal please make a vlog on tractor 🚜
The exhaust note🤤🤤🤤
Next is diesel locomotive trial
1:33 *And the Tempo starts* 😂😂
Great video, just that there's no foot pegs for the pillion rider😂
While watching the video my phone was vibrating throughout, I thought it was some messages or notification, but then off course it was the diesel bullet 😂
❤ATTI SUNDAR❤
ROFL, I was laughing throughout the entire video. One of the funniest bike review by Faisal Bhai. Video dekh ke esa laga jese mai khud ride kar raha hu.👏👏👍👍
Remembering my uncle's Diesel bulllet
He's so tall that the intro to the bullet looked like it was shot on a drone
Other diesel bike ever sold in India in 80s n early 90s was called Suraj....
Bullet was not alone.
Pl check
My father owns a Royal Enfield old one and that too has the gear lever on the right side
