Q. Which is good to buy between Thunderbird 350X and Thunderbird 350
  • If you are interested in urban riding then go for Thunderbird 350x it comes with alloy wheel and Thunderbird 350 comes with spokes which is good for off roading adventures, 350x more stylish than 350 but in terms of features they are almost same.
  • Definitely Thunderbird 350. Both bikes are same with jus a few changes such as ABS, tubeless tyres etc. 350 is more retro compared to 350x..esp.the colors. Performance wise both are same.
  • None....but if you want to buy between the two... I would suggest the good old thunderbird....I have sold my thunderbird x within one year as I was having just too many problems with the bike

Q. Which is best bike, Classic 350 or Thunderbird 350X?
  • Depends on your riding style, height. Thunderbird 350x BS4 has an issue with the Tank creating a vacuum which doesn't allow the fuel to flow freely and thus halting the engine. I've personally experienced the the issue and the bike stops every 2-3kms on a speed between 60-80km/hr. My cousin faced similar issue on classic 350 but the issue resolved after first service.
  • If your opting for a daily commute than long tours. Please opt Classic 350.If your thinking for both options, you can prefer 350X. It has the looks, Better ergonomics, Tubeless tyres and alloy wheels with dual channel ABS>PS: - Believe me its a head turner
  • About 33 kms with city ride + highway

Q. I am confused about TB 350X and 500X! Both seems same in spec except cc and torque. What would you recommend? Carburetor for 350 and fuel injection 500, so in long run which one is reliable?
  • It all boils down your needs and affordability. 500cc has alot of higher end bike tech in it. so obviously it demands more care and expertise to maintain. (it's common among any high end bikes) I own a TB 500X and except for services cost I have not faced any issues..!and yea there is a 5years extended warranty from company if you only get the serviced from RE service centre at regular intervals..! 350 is not a bad bike but if you wana step up a notch be ready for the costs and polished riding style
  • 350x is easier to maintain and quite reliable. 500x has more power and has fi but in case of maintaining it has gone above par. Some where 500cc bikes of RE are hard to maintain. If you are spending for about 2.5 to 3L you should definitely go for Interceptor 650twins for this is the best. Otherwise you go for TB350x. It is good reliable and easier to maintain. Good luck with the choice.
  • Carburetors are supposed to be more reliable in the sense that they are much "simpler" and can be fixed by any and every other mechanic.But fuel injected isn't a problem. Guess what is the problem? Lack of power in the 350. I regret every second that I didn't go for the 500 instead.

    The bike is good, it comes 

    The bike is good, It comes with a sand 20 ltr tank but actually its 16 litres, You get abs, Disc breaks, Riding comfort is there, It gives a very good feel while riding on highways.Person riding should be decent not very thin.It's well built.Engine sounds good.After servicing it always gives the feel of new bike.It's been 3 years now.If maintained it still gives a very good feel.Fuel efficiency not that much as it's royal enfield.Still you can expect about 30kmpl.It's all iron so all muscle bike.Engine is of course great.Handling is good.Overall good bike.

    Overall it is good. But 

    This is good looking bike.U will feel very comfortable while riding.But i am not satisfied there are major issues which services centre couldn’t fix.1.Whenever i wash it i need mechanic everytime after wash to start it.2.U can’t go in rain with this.It will stop after getting wet.You will hv to wait it till it dry.3.So forget about leh laddakh trip with this.Your maximum time will waste in regretting and trying to start it.4.Every month you hv to go for chain repair.It becomes loose.And service centre will tell you to replace with new chain set 😊😊.So you will hv to go to local mechanic.5.Meter stand will break in every 3month in the middle of driving.6.This is made for summer only.7.In winter you will start and driving but in the middle of the road it will be stopped.Great news service centre will tell you it is winter.It will happen.Think before high speed driving on highway in winter.8.

    Very awesom 

    Really outstanding performance, It is very awesome bike just like it look, It is a lot more comfort to ride than other bike because its handle is not too low, There is a limit kept due to which there is no neck pain.I ride this this bike since 2018 this is my first bike in my life and my choice was quite accurate, There is no doubt about that many of friends had said that the mileage will be very less because the bike is very heavy and the cc is 249, So there will be a little compromise in the mileage but but it did not happen, Just like i used to get in the beginning.Now perhaps it has reduced to some extent.But i am comfortable and i am very happy as much as everyone had talk about the mileage no work was done i get good mileage on as average.In my opening at the time of buying a car or bike before listening to anyone's opinion, You should first think for yourself whether it is right for me or not.When your mind says that it is right for you, Then you can take it because by listening to someone else, You may also regret it later.

    Very nice performance of the bike.Excellent torque in 2nd gear.Good for touring with a mileage of 33-37 kmpl.Never got disappointed by any of its features and i wonder why on earth this bike flopped and discontinued.
