- Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350. My Black Beauty 🖤It is a best in cruising segment. Gives complete comfort in long rides. Queen of roads. Cursing adventure. Made for every road and runs like butter. Gives royalty feeling. As my height is above 6 feet this is best suitable for my height. Also it has low maintenance cost. I have explored around half of the India and covered most of districts in Maharashtra. Riding experience so far is excellent. In long ride after 10-12 hrs of riding it gives issue of back ache. Back suspension needs to be improved The person who loves cruising can definitely go for it. This is best machine to ride between 60 80 kmph speed. It will give you better mileage above 35. Will suggest to ride it 60 kmph. Above 80 kmph it vibrates unbearable. Odometer needs to be looked after. It gets faulty repeatedly.Read More1
- One of the best bikeI have owned a lot of bike but this is One of the best performing bike I ever rode in terms of style and performance. It was my first love in my teenage. The price is reasonable. First you can try it then buy it. If I ever get a chance to recommend royal Enfield bike to anyone I will recommend Thunderbird 350 only. Royal Enfield has stopped manufacturing this model.Read More

Matte black/stone color. Now that is what I am talking about being in a different league. 4. Fancy gadgets give the feel of an upmarket cruiser. Twin disk brakes, rear adjustable gas shocks, projector headlamps, removable seats, larger fuel tank, and digital console.Read More
