    Royal Enfield has introduced nine new shades for its fleet that includes four new colours for its retro street model Classic, three colours for the legendary Bullet and one colour each for the Thunderbird and the Continental GT. These new colour variants will be introduced in addition to the existing colours that are available for each motorcycle model and are open for bookings at all Royal Enfield company stores and dealerships. The prices of the new colour variants will remain unchanged and will be as per the existing models.

    These are the models that have been updated with new colour schemes:-


     

     

    Royal Enfield Bullet 500: The oldest motorcycle in continuous production, the legendary Bullet has been introduced in a new Marsh Grey in the 500cc variant. In its 83rd year on the road, the Royal Enfield Bullet Marsh grey will don new Copper coloured Madras pinstripes as well. The Bullet 500 is available at a price of Rs 1.70 lac (on-road, Delhi).

    Royal Enfield Bullet Electra: The Bullet 350 Electra has also been introduced in two new colours - Maroon and Blue. The existing colours for the Bullet - Silver, Red and Black will also continue to be available for Rs. 1.33 lac (on-road, Delhi). 

    Royal Enfield Classic 350: The Royal Enfield Classic’s well-loved retro British styling gets Mint and Chestnut variant for its 350cc model, which is available with a price tag of Rs. 1.41 lac (on-road, Delhi).

    Royal Enfield Classic Chrome: The 500cc variant of the Classic range legs up with the new Chrome Green and Classic Chrome Grey that will be available at a price of Rs. 1.92 lac (on-road, Delhi).

    Commenting on the new colours for Royal Enfield Classic, Mr Rudratej (Rudy) Singh, President Royal Enfield said, “ The new colours of the Classic has been carefully chosen to bring alive the authenticity of the Classic’s post war design. The Classic is a well-loved motorcycle and every iteration of it has been eagerly anticipated. We had to be very careful with the colours as just any old shade of green or chestnut wouldn’t have been good. So we chose a very vintage-y mint green and similarly the chestnut with an old patina”.

     

    Royal Enfield Thunderbird: Royal Enfield’s cruiser motorcycle Thunderbird, built to the needs of the highway rider has been introduced in a new Asphalt variant. The new colour gets its inspiration from the long winding highways it famously rules. The new Asphalt will be available for both the Thunderbird 350 and Thunderbird 500 variants. The Thunderbird 350 is available at a price of Rs. 1.54 lac and the Thunderbird 500 is for Rs 1.95 lac (both on-road, Delhi).

     

     

     

    Royal Enfield Continental GT: The Continental GT cafe racer has been introduced in a ‘GT Green’ variant. Speaking on the GT’s new colour, Rudy said, “The ‘GT Green’ colour borrows its inspiration from the British racing history where the colour was particularly well loved. It brings out the GT’s classic racing credentials and is a very heritage-y extension after the GT Red and GT Yellow”. The GT Green will be available at a price of Rs. 2.16 lac (on-road, Delhi) as same as the GT Red, GT Yellow and GT Black variants.

      One of the best bike

      One of the best bike, it had great pick up and performance. It is reliable and safe. Good in mountains as well as highways. It is great value for money. It has less maintainance and superb performance. It is siutable for long trips and daily use in traffic as well. The looks are stylish and suits personality.

      My Bike Review

      Good Bike, maintained like one of the family members. Did not trouble anytime during my ride. Did not met with an accident even once during my long rides. Just need to check tyres before starting off for a long ride. Seat is also very comfortable while riding the for longer distance for about 100KMs.

      Great for Shaukeens

      Best Bike for long rides & ghats. Powerful acceleration & comfort while riding. Average is around 25km for Highways & 20km in cities. The Maintenance cost is bit high as it is an 500cc bike so for servicing it cost around 2k to 3k. You can take this bike for long rides with a pillion with comfort. No back pain or anything.

      Powerful, Performance,

      This bike is superb, and awesome in the context of style, performance, power, milage. After running approx 12500 km I feel that this is the another super power in the segment of 500 cc bike. If any one want to enjoy true power of classic then he should go for 500 cc classic. The monster look is also great.

      RE classic 500 (dessert storm) no mods 2014

      It's a great bike. There are no modifications done. With proper servicing and normal maintenance this will keep going. The power and pickup is nice. Easily overtakes other vehicles at 80kmph also. Is stable on highways. Adding a backrest could help pillion rider in long rides. I usually drove without pillion for long rides. So no issue there.
