Bullet 500 ES - The 100% Original Indian Bike

Bullet 500 was the India's fastest bike after the 4-Stroke bikes started the mileage era. Only 100cc bikes was there in the market and had profitable sales. Apart from that only the Royal Enfield Bullet was with standing with it huge Engines. People buy it for pride and express others their wealth.

Initially diesel variant of Bullet has also come but due to the extra ordinary vibration and sound the bike flopped. Even though the bike company slowly gained and it again had its sales after 2000.

During the early 2000 ad 2001, Fiero, CBZ and Pulsar arched towards the higher end bikes(there was no 150cc-4stroke at that time in India).

The Monster Bullet 500, which was manufactured from 1961 with a top speed of 130Kmph, still keeps its standard and was the same until today. It has also negative factors but it gives the chance for us to drive our Grandpa's bike with the new body.

Believe me!!! when you drive this bike you'll feel like dreaming. Others feel you are a tough guy, but the Bike is utmost smooth when you cross 3000rpm.

Every Indian bike has a draw back that it cannot travel more than 100Kms at a stretch due to its smaller size. But with the Bullet you can travel more than 500kms at a stretch. (e.g: Having trip from Mumbai to Pune six times with out taking rest or from Chennai to Kanniyakumari or traveling from Kolkata to Patna.

Whatever be the route I feel that you can trust the Royal Enfield better than the est bikes in India.
