-
When it comes to one of the most loved and celebrated cruisers of all times undoubtedly the name BULLET comes up .

This bike is so popular that it once overshadowed the name of its parent company Royal Enfield.Its immense popularity comes from the fact that people take huge pride in riding them. The company has a splendid legacy of manufacturing beast motorcycles known for their THUMPING (DUG ....DUG...DUG.....) for more than  116 years.However, the company seems to be lagging considering the recent developments in the field of biking technology.

Don't  get me wrong I am a big fan of the Enfield but there are some bits and niggling issues on which the company should look upon.



The issues 
1)Loads of vibration kicks in when the vehicle runs past 80kmph which results in less stability in handling.It makes nearly impossible for one to see the side mirrors.
2) No rear disc for classic 350,electra 500. The Electra 350 is not equipped with disc brakes.The braking is not in par with its rivals .
3)No abs is present in any of its variants.
4)Fit and finish is not great.Even after a few months of usage the paint wears out.
5)The classics aren't equipped with tubeless tires, tachometer, fuel gauge or a trip meter.
6)The Enfields have poor handling due to heavy weights and inferior components.
7)Many different noises from the engine come into account once the bike hits the 100 mark and the clutch is very heavy too.
8)Power to weight ratio is not that great.
9)The motorcycle doesn't seem reliable at times.
10)The long wait period .


Being said all this the company should look into these problems and rectify them.The main reason behind their high sales is the absence of Loud thump motorcycles in this range.Its rivals are not as famous as the enfield Which further felicitates their sales.Either you buy an Enfield or a Harley ,this absence holds the name of Royal Enfield high.

AN UPGRADE IS SERIOUSLY NEEDED.
