Royal Enfield Launches Bullet 500

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 with Twinspark ignition 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 altogether. The iconic Bullet is now available in an all new shade of Forest Green with the same aristocratic livery pinstriping now in a silver finish symbolic of automotive royalty.

Royal Enfield today web launched its new Bullet 500 Forest Green. The new 500 features spectacular retro looks with replacement to fuel injection unlike other 500cc variants with carburettor for its Unit Construction Engine (UCE) in 500 Forest Green. The bike gives out 26.1 bhp with a maximum torque of 40.9 Nm @ 3800 rpm. The new shade certainly does look retro, but overall the variant is similar to the Bullet 500 EFI. 
500cc Forest Green got the Long Traditional twin seat contoured to suit rider posture and comfort as well as pillion comfort on long rides with all new PILLION-GRAB Rail as aesthetically designed with Cusion End. The 13.5L fuel tank consists of traditional Royal Enfield winged badge with bot Silver and Gold dual tone lovery.
