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.
