FOR YEARS, THE BULLET LULLED much of Royal Enfield’s competition into a false sense of security. Unchanged for years and barely enough power, refinement or safety to even be safe on today’s ‘Western’ roads, the 500cc single chugged on regardless, selling worldwide, doing what it did best. Plod, plod, plod, steady as she goes, under the radar.
Emissions may take the blame officially, but in truth it was time for the Bullet and its shoddy build quality (though a cheap price, gold doesn’t bring)
