I wanted to compare Classic350 and MAchismo350.
But Why am i not seeing Machismo350 in the royalenfield.com?Have they stopped its production or wat?:S
 
Classic 350 came with the Cast Iron Engine while the Machismo 350 came with an AVL350 engine. Machismo 350 has been discontinued and they have released the Thunderbird TBTS with the newer UCE350 engine.
 
^^ i think he is talking about the model "Classic 350" not the older bullets. I guess it comes with the same TBTS engine.
 
Ooh yeah my bad :ashamed: I thought classic was the old 350 :P Yes the Classic 350 comes with the UCE350 aka TBTS engine.
 
classic350 - UCE engine, more reliable, fuel efficient, better acceleration, NO THUMP!!

Machismo350 - AVL engine. less fuel Efficient, stock parts will be hard to find as AVL is dicontinued, Amazing THUMP!!

i personaly own a machismo 350. Obviously the thump is better than UCE engines, but never wins the thump of cast iron engines.

now that they have stopped manufacturing Machismo, parts are quite hard to get in the local market, however you can get the spares in authorised outlets.

Electra is the best model ever launched by RE till date i would say. Bullet sells for its thump. Nowadays people dont have an option and have to live with UCE engines.....which might be fuel efficient but lack in thump and the longevity
 
All new RE Motorcycles are carrying UCE Engine.EFI for CL500.the Thump is a goner.these are not the real classics.Saw in Youtube that after fitting goldstar type silencers UCE's will have Thump(not comparable to std350).But ,I doubt these plain silencer will eat the exhaust valve life.

PS:I had an Electra 4S.
 
frankly speaking bullet has really gone down for me, i mean these new silencers look crap and sound even crappier. i was never a fan of the electra seeing i own a 13 year old bullet 350 standard but in front of these new models electras shine pretty bright.

so seeing this i wouldn't be going for a bullet in the near future(also i don't have to;))
 
Of all Electra is the best with its thump and performance. Old electra like 2002--s have CI engine and is almost like Standard..
