    It's too good bike for touring or for occasional riding and for us mileage is good for 500cc 32kmpl and in dis the great thing is royal Enfield suit power exhaust only not only silent vibration

    Several sites will provide you comparison charts of one against the other. both have SAME engine. BUT ,TBX has 1. tubeless tyres.2. alloy wheels3. ABS4. straightened handle bar 5. fresh look with the two tone colours ( if you are a chrome lover then tb is your pick) as TBX exhaust has no chrome. it's black. choice is yours. Happy riding.

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?
