to the many comments about the lack of engin/leg guards. it's not needed in america. we have very smooth roads and good relationships with other drivers. I've been a rider for 30+ years and have yet to drop this or any modercycle!

My grandfather bought a Royal Enfield Bullet 350 G2 in 1964. He is 78 now and still rides it like he used to back then. When my father turned 18, he was gifted with another RE Bullet 350 CI and that also is working just fine. And I bought a Royal Enfield Bullet 350 UCE in 2019. It's the best thing that has happened to me. Ride that thing with pride! As we say in India "Bullet meri Jaan" (Bullet is my life) ❤️

I saw it for the first time there in India, I took a picture of it and said to myself: "once they get to Brazil, I'll buy one for my self." God blessed me with a Military green one. I wanna buy an Interceptor too without selling the Classic 500. Kind of bike you get married to.

Every RE classic comes with a fuel switch, in which you can switch down (down which means switching it on) when your tank is full and switch up for reserve (reserves means you have only 2 to 3 litres of gas left in your tank) and in reserve mode you could drive for only about 50 to 60 kilometers, so when ever u hit reserve it indicates that you need to refill your tank.

Hey Ken! Cheers from India. With friendly intentions, this looks like the Classic 500. The Bullet 500 is a different model, albeit with many similar features. Both are great buys, imo, though this might be because I'm a fan of the brand. And a super helpful video! Assuming by your collection that you love cruising, I would really encourage you to try out the Thunderbird 500 if you can get your hands on it, although it's no longer in active production. :)

Anybody looking forward to buy a new 500 might wanna wait. RE is launching a few new bikes this year. The new test bikes were spotted on the roads here in India last year and the single cylinder motorcycles all seem to have the updated frame and SOHC engine from the new 2020 RE meteor , which takes away most of the vibrations that RE is notorious for. Also spotted were some new models, notably a cruiser bike with the interceptor's 650cc parallel twin engine, and a smaller bike, probably a 250cc.

Hey I have a 2017 classic 500 and there's a plug by the kickstand if you unplug it and cap the connections to keep moisture out it will bypass the kickstand killswitch. I did this and it has made warming the cold natured thing up so much nicer cause I don't have to just sit on it anymore while it warms up or put it on that center stand.

Yes, I do accept the fact that you can ride this machine all day no problem or whatsoever, a capable healthy engine overall produces merely 27 horses with loads of torque from a 500cc mill. But the mediocre build quality, vibration, low back support and the fear of getting your tyre flat will definetely set you back. From my POV it can only be kept as street bike for your short weekend getaway to satisfy our lust for classic vintage motorcycles and not as our highway or all day companion.

You have to buy the anti vibration plate, maybe fill the handlebars with sand/cement. Add a piggyback ECU which can increase the speed 10 miles more. Or adjust the carb to the max. Also fit rubber washers if available. Bar end weights also reduce vibes. A smaller, straight windscreen looks nice. Do all this and you will get a better machine

The old model were awesome, you can feel the strokes in your heart tuk tuk . It was smooth no vibration at all. But in new engine the tappet noise is really annoying (u might have to change the oil pump). In long run u will get used to it. I also own a RE desert storm, using it for 8 years, for Indians it's just an emotion and pride that's all😀

Here's a idea.. If your bike doesn't start with the first kick, or if the kick backfires, then do one thing, without switching on the key just kick it once or twice and then switch on the key and kick it again.. It starts much more easily and smoothly.. It just removes the air from the engine.. You can do it every morning before starting the bike even after your fix the electric start

Good honest review. It's probably just as well you didn't sell it. That "Ravishing Red" 650 Interceptor of yours may be a more well-rounded bike with fewer compromises for modern roads (at least in the States), but sometimes an old Bullet thumper just "scratches that itch" that other bikes can't reach, right? I can't see EVER willingly parting with my '05 Iron Barrel Engine 500 "Military", and its "happy place" is even a tad slower than your UCE's, cruising most contentedly in the 50s (under about 90 kph). Sure, it'll go faster, but what's the damned hurry? Google Maps' "Avoid Highways" option is your friend.
