Nice article Max...keep it up
Well Rash, does that mean you are not THAT mad at me for that 'Pulsar is still the best' post? I hope you are not. Peace?

And, as I asked earlier, do you have any idea whether the new AVL 500 engine will be introduced in the T'Bird or Machismo? Do post details if you know ok?

And thanks Tiger.

Max, I'm not pissed off with u dude. U'll always remain my rival as far as the bikes go , but nothing on personel level dude.
And I have no idea about the bullets, if the question was asked to me. So, Sorry, can't help.

Rajnish! You had a 500?! That's one Enfield I never got to ride! And if I have to buy one now, I will have to buy it without a test-ride! [:0] They don't have a single piece in stock here in the showrooms! And tell me something, how different is she to ride, from the standard 350? If I give up my rash riding habits (that will be MI:3 ) is it worth spending on a new Bullet 500 with a front disc? Sadly, it doesn't come in black or military green anymore! Just the athena grey (which is not that bad anyway) - MAX.

max may be I will share my exp ... I rode 500 in night on almost empty road .. next day I rode a std 350 in day time, on empty road ... after riding 500..350 to me felt like riding splendor after riding fiero (as all bikes have 4gears and 4st... putting this example).

Nav, what really was the difference in the experience though? Is it the acceleration? The exhaust note? The vibrations? The higher top end? Tell me!

acceleration of 500 was much much better than 350 (both bikes were not in very good condition). Didn't tried to go for top speed check .. u c front drum scared me
Thrill of riding those bikes coudn't gave me time to feel the vibrations ... but vibrations were there. Exhaust note was just like the bullet trademark

As far as I know, the acceleration of the AVL 350 engine is much better than the old 500. Wonder what's in store with the upcoming AVL 500!!! [] And wonder at what rate it will be gulping down the precious stuff! [B)] Please please please Mr. Siddharth Lal, a top speed of 130+ is not asking for too much is it? I promise I won't try to drag her! And give us a proper street-bike instead of a pseudo-cruiser like the TBird!

yes max avl350 has a good accel ... but as I said I rode std 350.

Talking of a streetbike .. wait for the 6xxcc monstor to be launched soon by enfield ... rumours are that it will not be like a cruiser but more of a street bike .. Even if the bike takes another yr to come ... I doubt if many people can stay away from that bike.
