   I like 500 cc very much. but it is not oil cooled and lacks of rpm meter.

   I test drive the Bullet classic 500. Its was more then expected… simply a marvel.. dam dam powerful

   The bikes comes with the normal catalytic converter exhaust and the new exhaust which is flashed in the picture is an add on to the bike (accessory) comes at a extra cost and has a better thump and feel.

   As bound by the name “Classic” it carries a typical retro look, but when taken a closer look there is loads of differences from the old once… for the first time they have managed to change the wheel base and the tires that makes the bike little shorter.

   2nd thing no amp meter!!! – in place of that you can find a ignition light “like a car” (i was a bit disappointed seeing that) long gone those day where u have to pamper the bike before starting…

   3rd the kicker is different, handle is different and give a better feel and handling, i guess it good on long
   drives..

   500 and 350 has respective defining color -aqua blue for 500 and gray for 350 .. black n maroon is common in both the models. i wish the gray comes with 500 too..

   there are many more changes .. for which u have to see ur self..

   i love the bike inspire of the change..

   Price is a big surprise
   Classic 500 – on road Bangalore is RS 1.42 L!!!!!
   Classic 350 – Rs 1.10 L

   I’ve made up my mind to pick up the 500C but waiting to see the reviews from the auto shows before i book..

   Thanks

   Man to be honest am really confused..I want 500 but i don’t know if its right..I just wanna see some reviews so probably will wait for some reviews ..
   Until then am stuck up making my decision between 350 and 500 !!
   both are hot and espl 500 is way too hot with a single seater even better

   @Andy:
   I think you can blindly go for the 500 cc. It sports the new Electronic Fuel Injection and gives you frugal ride as compared to other 500 cc vehicles not compromising on power – it’s packed with enormous power; you will be thrilled with so much power – so use with caution!!. And 350 is the same Thunderbird engine. Go for a test ride of the new 500 and just book it!! Have fun and safe riding!!

   i have seen classic 500 in webside and i already book from our nearest dealer on 9 nov2009 now dealer brought classic 500 for demo but i get socked that silence box which i have seen in net is bend but demo one is came striaght as old silencer box

   Ya wangyal, the silencer comes straight on purchase. You can however get the curved silencer, and fit it on ur bike once its registered. The straight silencer is because its got to be acceptable under Bharath III norms.

    Hi vicky,
    i am planning to purchase Thunderbird by next week.I need know is if i can change the thunderbird silencer with the enfield classics bend silencer as i really loved it. also if i can change the tyres of thunderbird with the 500cc classics as i find thunderbirds tyres a little too big for my liking. will it affect the balance of the bike or the ground clearence, also i am not sure it smaller tyres will look cool on the thunderbird…?
    please help me with your valuabe suggestion.

    Regards,
    Nitin Thakur.
