    It had a thump similar to the bigger REs. The junction was huge with ample open spaces, so it's possible the sound would be louder/better on streets.

    The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

      I really doubt as the engine revs more and the fly wheel is lighter too.. It must be pretty continuous I guess and not distinct

        Only the head has been big bored and few changes to the Engine.. some changes probably done to the Exhaust... Wondering and thinking how the sound is going to be.. also is this a FI or a Carb'd??

          It is FI and for sure it won't thump like other REs

            If what you say is correct.. then cool and I hope they cleared out all the vibration and oil leakage issues.. if they did.. they have a champion on their way

              Oil leakage issue has been taken care long back with UCE Bullets itself. This oil leakage issue is the common notion people carry about Bullets since CI bullets indeed used to leak lot of oil but that was past. Though I agree vibrations are still there.

                I am not sure about that buddy..

                my friend has an RE Classic 350 and oil leakage is like hell.. all over the head, near the crank case.. My God.. not only on his.. have seen in many RE Classic 350s..

                that gave me the impression.. lets see how the 535 is

                  Well strange. I have cl350 too and absolutely no oil leakage. May be a particular case or bad handling or maintenance..not sure.

                    I hope RE doesn't get rid of the the vibration issue on their bikes. An RE with a butter smooth engine? sounds too boring. Japanese are specialist in manufacturing them and we don't need our RE to be high revving, butter smooth and with plastic parts. I hope RE maintains their legacy for ever.

                      Wow.. Someone is there who understands it so well and care for legacy. You echo with me friend.

                      Yes few things which I would never want RE to do:
                      Introduction of plastic parts
                      Reduction in stroke length
                      Drastic change in the legendary design
                      Reduction in fly-wheel weight
                      Introduction of too much technology and then few other things.

                      If they change all this, would it remain the RE anymore. The typical RE which we have known from ages. And would it remain and identify itself as a different class of motorcycle anymore. NO. The charm would be lost. If we want technologically superior bikes there are plenty already in the market, let them take care of that and let RE remains the RE known for as much as possible. I still wish if they continue to make CI bullets as an on demand basis along with UCE Bullets

                            This was a promotional event by RE. They might have India launch in November end at rider mania Goa.

                              They were in good numbers. . . . . .
                              For a moment I started thinking "Is it really ??" "Is it launched??" lol....

                              But one thing I din't get it, why did they designed it with a single seat ??
                              Still I think it's a very rare munch for people in India.
                              Till CLASSIC it was ok. But in GT CR, it's no option for pillion at all.
                              Some where an individual needs a pillion some time.

                                aren't cafe racers about that only.. just enjoying the ride like a young hot blooded kid
                                want a bike for 2.. RE has many options.. and let this be a rare breed (atleast that's what i think)

                                Ride safe and have fun.
