Royal Enfield the brand that says it all, From being oldest production motorcycle brand to making the best and toughest bikes this brand has got it all right .

Its bikes are so tough that they are used all over world for armies like India ,Russia and Britain.

So its a legendary brand and so are its bikes now a for Indian brand this image is quite astonishing .

This brand entered our nation at around 1930 s and became ours forever ,it was loved by all Indian bikers for its undoubted reliability powerful torque and a heartwhelming thump!

Now this year in 2020 the brand shall launch its new version of its legendary classic 346 cc motor an air cooled unit so let's look onto what we are getting from this brand

Which bikes up for refresh??

Due to strict norms by Indian govt. all auto manufacturers have to comply with bs 6 norms in effect from 1 Aprill 2020 so right now many manufacturers have already launched their BS 6 models

In RE motorcycle portfolio the bikes that shall undergo major engine modifications are the 350 cc The Bullet, Classic 350 and the mainstream cruiser Thunderbird and Thunderbird X also 350 cc

All shall now use the new 346 cc FI Air cooled single spark engines

Howeaver the bs 4 346 carburetor twinspark models will be available until 1 April 2020

Also the old 500 cc engines shall be discontinued from same

Any other changes?

Yes , some minor cosmatical updates are expected like new matt colour for classic and new sets of alloys as usual all normal

Pricing and worth really buying it ?

No. Sadly the new 2020 complete updates aka Facelifts are on its way in launch in May 2020

And these bs 6 minor updates feel like a half cooked rice also 10-15 k increment in pricing makes recommending these harder so

Personally I would suggest go for bs 4 older varients as huge discounts are available and not much is changed

Today re is officially announcing these lineup and stay tuned for complete detailed reviews
