Recently Asked User Questions
Q. Which one is better Thunderbird 350X or 500X for regular use and lower maintenance?
- If you have maintenance issue.... I ll not recommend 500...it had good power but...if you had the word mileage... definitely think b/w 350 - 500....and it depends
- 500 is better.many problems in 350x
- 350x
Q. Is the fuel injection system of Thunderbird 500X as reliable as that from Himalayan?
- For Sure. Heavy bikes need maintenance. The tank must be always above reserve, or half full.empty tank can spoil efi
Q. I am in so much dialama to opt between Thunderbird 350X and 500X. I have driven the bike and felt 500 has much more to give than 350 but my concern only started when I heard from some people regarding EFI (peolple have even changed back to carburetors) and fuel pump problems in 500. not to mention 500cc comes with costly spares than 350. Thunderbird is my dream bike so not able to select other vehicles eighter(Himalayan or Interceptor). So please 500 owners can u suggest me which to go for?
- Thanks for such a detailed answer. Ur efforts are really appreciated. finally I bought myself a Thunderbird 500 X, and I am satisfied with the choice I made.

Thunderbird 500X3.8The overall experience is0
The overall experience is good but the bike could have more colours.Seats are really comfortable and the positioning of handles are also perfect.It's been more than 3 years i am having this beauty and it's worth the money.Though in comparison of continental gt 650 it's mileage is slightly less.
