The Royal Enfield Bullet was originally a British overhead valve single cylinder four-stroke motorcycle made by Royal Enfield in Redditch, West Midlands, but now produced by Royal Enfield Motors, the successor to the British company, at Chennai, Tamil Nadu, in India.

The current range was launched with new engines in 2007. The 500 cc UCE features fuel injection, and has greater power than any Royal Enfield 500 cc motor. The 500 cc UCE, with an integrated five-speed gearbox, powers the current Bullet Classic model. Starting in 2009, this engine was available only in the EU to satisfy emissions regulations, but from 2010 also became available in the USA.

The Classic Desert Storm comes to you with a “sand” paint scheme reminiscent of the world war II era, when Royal Enfield were used extensively by the military with 1950s style nacelle and toolboxes, traditional paint scheme and buffed engine components.

The green machine in the background is the Classic Battle Green.
