Royal Enfield Bullet 500 review, test ride

The riding saddle and position are really comfortable, upright with footpegs placed ergonomically well, forward for good comfort. The Bullet 500 uses conventional telescopic fork front suspension and dual gas-charged shock absorbers at the rear. Like all Enfield bikes, the 500 is a heavy, solid feeling and stable bike ridden in a straight line, and always feels planted, even when riding with two full size adults on board.

There’s a 280mm disc brake in the front and 153mm rear drum brake, both working well with nice feel to generate adequate stopping power.

The Bullet 500 is priced at Rs 1,53,855 lakh (on-road, Delhi). Full story in the upcoming issue of Autocar India.
