  • Re: Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350 Owners Experiences

    Guys are you facing any issues related to scratches on tank?

    Does it only happen on stone colour or is it a problem for other variants as well?

      Has anybody tried filling their handlebars with sand to reduce vibrations ??
      What are the other ways that can be used to reduce vibrations ??

        Scratches happen on all variants.the only thing with stone variant is it gets discoloration and glossy effect so extra care is needed in handling.

          Add clay and lead shots....better than sand.
          Remove and fix properly the weight dampers of ur handle without washers.

              Put those soft foam handlegrips. They minimize vibes by about 80%

                  You can get it at any of the local shops at your place. Its the soft foam grips, should cost around INR 100.

                    Do you know exactly when the handle bars vibrate. If it's in the he range of 2400-2700 rpm. There is nothing you can do about it. It's high frequency engine vibes which no handle bar end weights can deal with. This vibe is engine character have to live with it. Else add some soft material on the grips and wear a good quality leather gloves. One of my friend said changing the long silencer to a shorter one may be a goldstar also helps at times.
                    Cheerio!

                      Just got to know using Colin with micro fibre cloth is a great option for cleaning, specially the stone color.

                      Try it guys

                              Yaaaa... Why??? How much does yours take?? My TBTS reaches 90 very easily.

                              But it took me a lot of case study & DIY to reach the optimum performance. I am happy 😊 now.
