    Just ask your husband casually as to which bike he likes the most. Gift him that bike.

        Just the bike with a crash guard will be absoulute necesites. But the are a lot of accessories available like a windshield which more cosmetic and partly functional and leather saddle bags for storage. I say the saddle bags look really cool and compliments the bike very well.

              because new thunderbird does not give pleasure of riding a royal enfield.
              i will explain
              you know that bullet sound is dug dug dug dug dug
              royal enfield is known for this dug dug sound
              this sound is totally missing in new thunderbird(2009 model) because it have a different engine
              I have changed the Exhaust to a short one and the sound is very good, I bought a Quality product manufactured in Chennai.... liked it... dug dug dug..

              I think you are going to have a tough time as a pillion rider :-) .... I have a RE TBTS and performance is very good...but the shocks are very hard....

              You can buy a Tank Bag, Saddle bag and protection gear.

              I also added a HID light to my TBTS..... It provides more visibility on night rides......
