Once an engineer, always an engineer :D but on a serious note, the real learning is in the marketing. While product design is important, the genius lies in making it visible in a crowded market where the bulk of the consumers are looking for value purchases. From being an army bike to have a cult like following in India, its been a very interesting journey for a British motorbike company.

It wasn't that they didn't know what to do they were very reluctant to change as their products were infact getting sold on the fact that they have cast iron motorcycles made of metal.

You guys don't realise that it is not easy to design a new engine from scratch. This is not just in bikes. Even in cars. In fact there are many car manufacturers who purchase engines from rival manufacturers. Siddhart Lal must have struck gold when their aluminium engines were functional. I have the first aluminium cruiser bike released by Enfield. The Thunderbird Twinspark. It was 2008 end. The previous model was a cast iron engine. I was very sceptical about buying a bike with an untested engine. I still have the bike. Still runs like a lion.

One more factor that I think people often don't co-relate is, RE rose along with the earning of an average 25 year old Indian. Before 2005, the average Indian couldn't afford a costly bike and always focussed on fuel economy and ease of use. Sure Siddartha Lal did all the right things. But at the same time, an average Indian could start to afford these bikes too and not just afford it, but also take it on long multi day rides.

The real learning comes from there while material science would only be interesting for engineers.

He go in touch with RE and imported some to Switzerland.

Agreed. All these points are on paper. Let's also not ignore the modernisation of our country as well. What's Royal Enfield known for? I don't think any of the points in the video come to our mind or we even want to know when we hear the word Royal Enfield. It was always the THUMP, the sound! It was a statement on it's own. As a kid I used to look at a "bullet" in awe. If a motorcycle entered a street with that thump, you knew it's a RE/Bullet. A sign of prestige where people wait months to get the bike. It felt special. Only the financially well off people had a Royal Enfield, unlike today where almost every household has a Royal Enfield because of how easy it is to get one thanks to easy access to loans, lesser waiting periods and so on. And regarding the innovation Sid Lal did, every company needs to innovate and adjust to trends or die off eventually, but kudos to the guy for getting it done. At the end of the day, i think if people had easy access to money back during the brand's dying off period. It would have been a success then itself.

Hi Pls recheck on 13:12, I would like to mention a correction here. Cast iron is better than aluminum for damping and vibration because of its unique microstructure and high damping capacity. Cast iron has a high damping capacity due to its graphite flakes, which give it a rough surface. This makes it ideal for use in machine bases, engine blocks, and brake components

What i learnt from this case study- 1. Fragmented focus isnt going to help you build a good product. Focus on few things and make a good product first. 2. Market research is all about understanding customers/ potential customers pain points and try to work it out. For this you can create user personas or even you can also become a customer to understand the pain points. 3. Good brand name can't compensate for the bad product. If you want to be successful and have a sustainable advantage, then good product is a must. For good product you need two things- point of differentiation and point of parity. Point of differentiation will provide the user the reason to buy and point of parity will not give a customer a reason not to buy. So both pop and pod are important Thank you.

He went and identified with HD's enthusiasts, spoke with them and steered the company in their direction, instead of the 'Honda' ('You meet the nicest people on a Honda') direction,. He cashed in on the (in Harley's case) outlaw rebel image of the few who were still buying HDs, instead of trying to ignore it as the 'corporate men', who'd never ridden bikes, were aiming to do.

Royal Enfield has always kept two steps in the future and one foot in the past. With the Interceptor, Continental GT, and Himalayan, they’ve made huge strides. The Gorilla is a step in the right direction, but a fully modern, aggressive 400cc bike could be the bold move they need to truly expand their reach. Time to go all in to make a modern 400 cc, like the Duke 390 from KTM or another aggressive brand like Triumph, which manages good classic motorcycles with modern motorcycles. I think Royal Enfield now needs to make that step happen to bring the brand more customers while keeping loyal to their customers.

The bikes are generally for Europeans and a small section of Hardcore Americans. Indians don't understand the concept of Retro, they just buy the bike because they like the aura. Apart from the Himalayan 450, all of REs product are tailored for European and then dialed down so they can also sell in India 🙂

The biggest learning here is from innovation perspective. A mere change in material (cast iron to Aluminum) has such large scale and cascading effect on overall design. It only underlines the fact that in design nothing is small or incremental .... rather it has potential to make or break the product (design). e.g. Boeing Max 8 (replacing fuel efficient engine led to so many changes (change in center of gravity, need of MCAS, need of pilot training, poor management decisions to win orders and save costs). Only difference is RE was success while B-Max 8 was failure. Again I was bemused with the fact that the Video was silent in terms of structural shift in Indian 2 wheeler market. Company growth and market growth needs to be shown to understand whether RE's slice has increased in increasing pie.

Dear Ranveer, Please make a video on how engineering or undergraduates can open a startup or a manufacturing business, and please throw some light on the students from core branches like Civil, Mechanical or Materials moving to IT Industry, please keep the college tier in mind while making the video.

A classic example of how an intelligent & wise CEO can turn a loosing company to a superhit Brand worldwide.

I am exited to learn about the downfall of Intel (too big to fail) And certain rise of AMD and Nvidea in the market . Also about the future prospects of these industries not only in the context of USA but all over the world

RE has improved the bikes a lot. But the fact today is that RE bikes are not relaible. To keep the price cheaper, They do no use quality parts in the bike. This will one day put them in trouble. There is saying going in rider community "once you are a RE owner, you will never be a RE owner again"

You're always bang on but this video wasn't more about the strategies of S.Lal but more about the aluminium and cast iron. Maybe the first time it was boring.

For this video I see that your research is not adequate. First of all Royal Enfield does not sell motorcycles, they sell motorcycling. Yes, you have touched the part where SL has created a community and cult but you put more focus on the aluminium and engine, which is not REs strongest suit. Even today RE engines are just comparable to Honda engines but not as great. Technology and engineering is not why people buy a RE. Up until the classic reborn they were selling bad outdated motorcycles. As I have said before, RE sells motorcycling. When I first admired a RE desert storm, I did not imagine myself going to the sabzi market with it, rather I imagined myself riding on the treacherous roads of Ladakh and the straight and lonely roads of Rajasthan with a soft backdrop of sunset. RE had put a lot of effort and money into creating that particular image among people who were not into motorcycling and that is its true success. With this image RE were selling outdated and not so reliable products and getting pie charts of profits. But they actually put a lot of money into the R&D department why we have now comparatively good motorcycles with reliable engines. That's why the company is unstoppable now.

Their bikes are still not relaible. There is a saying going on in the riding community- once you are a RE owner, you will never be a RE owner again. People get their bikes shipped to north from south to ride in Ladakh and end up shipping the dead bike from Ladakh. Their company owned service centres are also not good. The mechanics are only good enough to replace the break pads, engine oil, clutch, throttle cable etc. Since the bikes are having lot of sensors now, if your bike really got an issue, it wont be fixed.

@@kunaljon565 I can't comment on the reliability of the new bikes. I own a bs4 himalayan that still works and I have not witnessed a breakdown. But then again I learned all common problems and resolutions before I bought the bike so I have always pre-fixed the issue before it appeared. Which is not expected from regular customers. So I guess, buying a honda hness makes more sense now.
