      Re: Enfield Bullet 500

      Hello, after owning tb500 for 6months I sold it.. Now planning to buy std500 as I loved my previous bullets avl500 n Electra. I feel more comfortable on std/machismo/Electra then tb or classic..

      I request current std500 owners to please post pics of gap between swingarm and tyre.. As I'm planning to put 130-80-18 ceat vertigo over 120-80-18 MRF's zapper.. So curious to know will it fit or not.. It would be very kind if someone post pics.

      Thank you..

          Re: Enfield Bullet 500

          Hi..This is an awasome thread going on at xbhp.Many thanks to all those who input to this thread. I was confused between classic 350 and bullet electra 350. This thread made me test drive bullet 500.. An i was instantly hooked... changed my booking to bullet 500.. frost green..Only that the waiting is killing me...
          1. From the thread, i can make out, 'amun ra' is returning ~35 kmpl. Any other inputs from bullet 500 owners?
          2. I dont like the stock handle bar on bullet 500. Flat handle bar on export models like bullet 500 efi looks cool. Planning to change the handle bar right at showroom itself. Will it hamper the handling of the vehicle?
          3. The tank do seems a bit bigger than 13.5L of classic / electra models. Any one actually tested it?


          Thanks in advance...

            Bullet 500 Metal Crashing Sound

            I got my Bullet 500 last week, But when I try to start my beast (Kick/Self) I hear a metal crashing sound from engine. Not sure about the problem.
            Any one facing similar issue on UCE engine?
            Can any one explain the source and reason..?

              Hi Guys!
              On August 16th, 2014 i booked the TBTS 350 marine. On Friday last I paid the whole amount by cheque and was excited for the delivery in this week until today when I took a test ride of the STD 500. Now my booking slip says Bullet 500 instead TBTS 350. The 500 will be arriving in this week itself!!!

                              Congrats man. But really 40 kms/ltr . Even 350 rarely gives 40. How did you check?

                                Oh yes 40kmpl. I reached the Reserve on my tank then I filled 1.4 ltrs of petrol (100₹) .. My bullet 500 ran another 56 kms till it reached reserve again. I did the math and guess what?? 40kmpl. Well I have a history of acquiring good fuel economy from all my previous bikes.
