          Congrats man, beautiful looking bike, infact new logo is looking nice on this colour, is the colour metallic or solid plus how is the ride feeling of your bike.

            the new logo doesn't look propotional to the tank.. maybe its one of those love it or hate it designs. I'd say the old royal enfield logo on the tank and the new one(i mean the 'bullet 350' monogram) on the side panels would look much better.
            satyamzma.. lucky to pick up one of the last surviving pieces from the old design !

              I have seen the design on various posts here and i feel that its too curved and the edginess of the original is sort of lost. Anyways, rightly said; love it or hate it this is here to stay!

                Most of the RE lovers are not liking this new desigh of the logo, it's just the heritage or legacy of this brand to which people are attached, but every thing changes one day, and that's what is happening with this company, till now whatever change RE has made to themselves people liked it and that will be the case with this new logo also as owners will get used to it.

ID:	1882159 Hey guys, just wanted to call out my first mod to my Bull. Been planning for this for a while now and now i got the Silencer/Exhaust pipe/Smoke pipe; to the upswept type found on the Classic modles. Its got a slightly louder note but not like the WB. Even the thump is more noticable. Pick up seems to have improved but only slightly. Secondly i got the stock handle bar changed too since the original one was not big nough for me and i had to bend slightly and thus it lead to lower back pain. Now i got a RD 350 type handles and its better and much more comfortable.

                  i do have one question for you all though:-
                  Since i got the handle bars changed; the accelerator cable gets pulled when i turn to the right. how do i get this fixed??

                  let me know your thoughts and feel free to ask questions if any

                  Maybe you are right [MENTION=49419]kusmaker[/MENTION] eventually people will like it however; RE could atleast make the logo propotional on the tank since it looks a little misplaced. Somehow doesnt look correct.

                    Guys i need some help ....

                    Its just a week since i took delivery my Bull, but there some rattling noise coming from chain. I initially thought that my rear wheel is out,
                    i took it to the SVC and showed it to the service adviser there, he said wheel is not out but some chain pad is rubbing against the chain & he removed it,
                    noise has reduced but to a very little extent. I told the SVC guy that noise is still coming but he said, as the build KMs on odo noise will reduce by itself hopefully till first free service which is at 500 KM.
                    Currently odo reads around 160 KM.

                    what can the possible problem be ?

                      Did the SVC guy removed the chain guard, a rubber part closed to the front sprocket fixed on the swing arm, if he did he should not have done this, just check chain for any slackness, put your bike on centre stand and rotate wheel to check from actually where the sound is coming.

                      Congrats buddy, bike looks beautiful, yes this upswept exhaust sounds really good much more like Bullet, although i have seen these upswept silencers getting rusted very quickly.

                        No. SVS guy did not remove the chain guard, he said there is chain pad towards the engine end of the chain.
                        I have also tried putting bike onto center stand & rotating rear wheel by hand as well as putting it on first gear, strange thing is noise comes only when i sit on the bull (ride it) be it solo or with pillion when its on stand noise does not come

                          Thanks [MENTION=49419]kusmaker[/MENTION] Yeah am sure rust will be an enemy for sure! Anyways, will have to nicely wax polish this flute with the rainy season hittin the city on and off. I recently got the bike to the SVC to check on the accelerator cable adjusted. Turns out that they have a longer cable that was duely installed. i also got the bike checked for any other adjustments. Just came back from taking delivery of the bike post all this and man! it sounds better; no ratteling sounds now and also the accelerator does not get pulled when i turn left or right. The Upswept short bottle really sounds like the old CI to some extent and even the thump is improved a whole lot! Loving my mods so far next up seat and rear view mirrors.

                            I think it's because that chain is not hitting that part with enough force,but when you ride your bike chain of the bike tends to move up and down more, still i would say get it checked properly, even if you have to get open your right side cover to check it, if SVC guys are not able to rectify the problem you can take it too some known outside mechanic, as it is still Bullet and there are many competent mechanics outside authorised SVC's.

                            Actually these UCE engines are far superior to old Cast iron ci engines, these newer RE engines are made of aluminium, aluminium dissipates heat better but so it emits less sound, that's why most old bulletier still prefer those pretty old age ci engines, technically these engines are quite a revelation for Royal Enfield, for example just look at the newer age Chief Indian bikes they have also move towards these UCE construction engines.

                              What do you suggest should i wait for first free service ( which is at 500 KM) ? since my current odo is 160 km and my daily commute is 65 KM
