Royal Enfield

The new Bullet 500 is essentially the motorcycle with the timeless, iconic, handcrafted design of the legendary Bullet
now powered with a solid 500 cc Unit Construction Engine for better combustion, superior power delivery and improved
fuel economy. Now technologically equipped with modern
advances in engineering, this motorcycle still maintains its
impeccable lineage it has withheld for decades. The iconic
Bullet is now available in an all new shade of Forest Green
with the same aristocratic pinstriping now in a silver finish
symbolic of automotive royalty.Royal Enfield’s traces of foundation go back to 1893
when the company was known as Enfield Cycle
Company. Enfield Cycle made its first motorcycle in
1901 and in the following years it rolled out the iconic
Bullet model. The bullish motorcycle was hand-picked
by the Indian government to be used by Indian army and
police for patrolling Indian border. To assemble Bullet
locally, Redditch Company partnered with Chennai
based Madras Motors and Enfield India was born. By
1962, Enfield of India, acquired all the machines
requisite for building components in India and began to
produce all required components locally. The British
origin motorcycle manufacturer is now owned by Indian
automaker, Eicher Motors, the merger took place in
1994 and since then it is renamed Royal Enfield India.
Royal Enfield India currently has two manufacturing
units located at Oragadam, near Chennai and
Tiruvottiyur (the original factory) is used for producing
engines and few motorcycle models. Royal Enfield
India’s product portfolio comprises cafĂ© racers, crusers,
retro street bikes, standard street bikes and Himalayan
range.
