When I heard the Royal Enfield Bullet Classic C5 was in our garage and needed a review, I was the first to put my hand in the air. Introduced in 2009, this bike had already made the rounds of most major magazines and I was anxious to throw my leg over one to see for myself if this vintage remake was as fun as most writers touted.
A Bit Of History
It was the early 1950s when India started ordering Royal Enfield Bullets from England to use for police and army vehicles, as they worked fairly well for the English during WWII. The British Enfield Cycle Company was a division of the Royal Small Arms Factory, a weapons manufacturing company that branched out into manufacturing bicycles, stationary engines, lawnmowers and eventually motorcycles - thus the Royal Enfield company was born in 1890.
Watch the 2010 Royal Enfield as we hit the streets and find out what this vintage-styled motorcycle can do in our 2010 Royal Enfield Bullet Classic C5 Review Video.Madras Motors of India purchased the right in 1955 to use the Royal Enfield name to form Enfield of India. In 1957 the tooling was sold to Madras to start manufacturing components and by 1962 complete bikes were rolling off the India assembly lines. By 1971 Royal Enfield of England was defunct and the future of their motorcycle brand was now in the very capable hands of the Indian industrialists.
The original 1939 Bullets were single-cylinder 350s and one of the first bikes to implement a swingarm suspension. Sturdy and strong, the Bullet served as an excellent trials machine. It wasn’t long before the 500cc model was introduced and the British bikes were winning numerous races and receiving international recognition, especially from the Indian military.
Vintage-styled motorcycles are becoming a growing segment in the industry; very few manufacturers have a history as rich as Royal Enfield to tap in to.For more than five decades the Indian-made Bullet evolved very little with upwards of 30,000 bikes sold each year. Today, the Bullet Classic 500 EFI still retains the stylish looks and rugged demeanor of its predecessor, including the legacy of the Royal Small Arms Company with the logo of a small cannon and slogan “Made Like A Gun” stamped on every motorcycle.
