    I am 6.25 and i own TB350x from February'19.Pros: I used this for daily commute to office (50km daily avg). Handling in city is very good and for my height Thunderbird is the only bike i will recommend as u will feel sitting on top of a baby elephant in case of classic. I also had a short road trip of 1000 KM and the bike gives no problem. For city rides i am getting an average 34kmpl( i like to drive fast, if you drive on the recommended speed i hope the mileage will increase to another 3-4 km/l.cons: The seat is not comfortable specially for long ride.. My bums were paining like hell. Now i am trying to modify my seat with gel/air suspension or any other modification as i am planning for ladakh trip in Sept and i know it is not possible to tour in this seat. Will update once i fixed the seat issue.

    It's good for you, but as far my experience on longer rides, the seat it can be more comfortable with a add on, the handlebar when adjusted is good and rest the leisure you get when you ride this Machine is awesome. this bike gives a nice urban look and a confidence when you ride on. If the older thunderbird handlebar is switched with this, this becomes perfect too for longer rides .Cheers and Enjoy🤘🏻

    Travelling long distance on Thunderbird will not cause back ache. You can change your driving posture, back ache is due to drive in same posture for long time which causes muscle fatigue. Unlike in car driving we can change posture while driving bike. I have disc problem with my lumbar vertebrae. I feel comfortable driving my bike rather than my car.

  • 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.
