Thread: Royal Enfield Classic 500

Hi RE500 Owners, I need your help to help my Friend who owns an RE 500 Stealth Black 2018 Model.

He is facing an issue with the Battery where the Battery contacts burn out due to spark/Arcing at the contacts.

This leads to him not being able to start the Bike.

This has now happened many times and he is considering selling his new Bike.

Do you have any solution to this problem or a recommendation of a good service center in Bangalore?

Hi Gurus,

Need some help! after a brief hiatus I got back to motorcycling world and picked up a pre-worshiped 2016 DS 500 with 4200 KMs on the ODO. This is my first stint with a royal enfield and the experience has been great so far barring one issue that I have been facing, after riding the motorcycle in heavy traffic the bike tends to stall as if it has run out of fuel. If I were to turn it off and ride if back again after 10-15 mins it rides normally, so based on my limited experience with bullets I am guessing its overheating?

On a side note ,I did get the oil changed, the spark plugs and the air filter cleaned just a few days back but the issue persists. Also, the previous owner did install a cannon performance exhaust if this info helps at all I also have the stock silencer with me which I am planning to revert to see if the custom exhaust is causing the issue but love the thump of the cannon exhaust so would want to confirm first before I change it.

Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
Amit.
