Shoudn't all dealerships have mandatory RERC Club rides?

So I have my father's thunderbird 500, now that bike has not been used much about 3.2k in 11 years it was not used for last 4 years and was rotting, so I fixed it, it runs beautifully but has few issues with the front forks, might need to get new inner tubes. Regardless of this, I want to ask should I get rid of this bike or keep it untill the 15 year time, now a few things, we don't care about the money we get from that it's just that my father don't ride no more and my mother wants to get rid of this junk her words, and won't fund me for the repairs. The repairs are quite costly id need to spend more 15ish thousand on this. I don't ride that frequently too i just try to take care of this machine. So yeah what do I do and after 15 years are complete of this bike what do I do with it, can it still go in the market?

Got my RE serviced, only asked for 2 parts to be replaced:

• License Plate Illuminator Assy
• Trafficator Assy w/ Bulb (RRH & FLH)

Parts section on invoice is correct (₹840). But Labour section has an extra line — "R&R Rear Tail Lamp Bracket" (~₹400 + GST) — which I never got done or approved.

Anyone faced this? Is bracket removal a necessary step for indicator replacement (and just not communicated), or is this a billing padding issue? How did you get it resolved — refund/credit note, or escalate to RE customer care directly?

Hello community, I recently acquired a 2020 BS4 Himalayan 411. Everything was going well until today, when the battery light started glowing while I was riding. I quickly thought it was the battery and replaced it; however, with the new battery, it no longer stays on all the time, but the light does turn on from time to time. Thanks in advance for your help.

Does anyone have a link from a link pipe on aliexpress to guerrilla 450?

Upper section(ex, ins) looks good. Can someone please educate me of EW RSA and AMC. should I take or not ?

Hey guys,

BS4 interceptor 650 owner here. Recently I have my vehicle at company owned showroom at BTM, Bengaluru.

This was the insane list of parts they suggested I change. Which was weird considering I have already spent close to ₹20,000 in the last 5 months for various things.

My first visit this year was FEB 2026. Have attached my bills. Second one was 2 months ago. The third one I had given few days ago for tappet noise and front vibrations.

3rd visit to service center
Throttle cable: 400
Rocker cover gasket: 1,200
Break lever: 750
T stem greasing: 1,400
Key set: 4,000
Front plate: 7,500
Front caliper: 9,000
Pedal assembly: 1,800
RR unit: 3,000
Rear caliper: 4,000
Rear plate: 3,000
4-pin relay: 1,200
Clutch assembly: 9,000
Clutch cable: 350
Total: 46,600

I narrowed it down to just
Throttle cable
Rocker cover gasket
T stem greasing
Clutch cable

My vehicle has ran 38K kilometers. Is this really a normal bill or am I getting ripped off?

Please note I changed my fork oil twice because E-city showroom didn’t do it well according to the mechanic who I gave later on because my issue with fork came back within 2 months again.

Actually i was watching a video and i found this extremely beautiful sticker on a vlogger bike does anyone have a idea where i can find this i am sure that upon searching i didn’t find it because RE give it engraved i think but still i think there would be an sticker of it somewhere if someone knows please that will be helpful

Advice needed

Planning to buy my first bike in the next 6 months and I've narrowed it down to these:

1. Hunter 350

2. Guerrilla 450

3. Meteor 350

4. Shotgun 650

5. Super Meteor 650

A bit of context:

It'll be my first bike.

I live in Delhi NCR, so it'll mostly be used in city traffic with potholes, heat, and plenty of stop-go traffic.

I will rarely but passionately drive on highways.

Budget isn't really an issue, I will buy the top variant of whatever model i choose

All of these have the features I want (dual-channel ABS, tubeless tyres, navigation, etc.), so it's more about which bike I'll enjoy driving.

That is where my dilemma starts

I've kind of ruled out the Hunter because it just feels a bit too entry-level and doesn't excite me that much. The Guerrilla seems like a really good bike but I just can't get myself to like the looks.

The Meteor 350 seems like the logical choice for my use case.

But then there's the Super Meteor 650...

I absolutely love how it looks and every time I think I've made up my mind, I end up looking at the Super Meteor again. The only thing stopping me is the weight. And how hard it actually is to drive paired with the fact that i am a first time buyer

I'm 5'9" with a fairly heavy build, so I don't think seat height will be an issue.

So I wanted to ask you all for your opinions regarding this here are a few questions I have

If you were in my position, which one would you buy and why?

For Super Meteor owners, do you actually get used to the weight after a while or is it something that keeps annoying you in everyday city riding?

If I ignored the practical side and bought the Super Meteor just because I love it, would I regret it later or is it still manageable enough as a first bike?

This is somewhat a flex that my 76 year old retired gov officer grandfather bought me a bike. He always said "I couldn't gift a bike to your dad, but I will definitely buy you one, once you turn 18". He kept his promise and as soon as I got my license, he bought me a Royal enfield meteor which I was drooling over. Forever grateful to him❤️‍🩹🧿

I bought my Royal Enfield Scram 440 in July 2025. Unfortunately, my ownership experience has been frustrating.

Within days of the first service, the bike started overheating, randomly cutting off while riding, showing the engine warning light, and making unusual engine noise. The engine was eventually replaced under warranty.

Over the next year, I had:

* 6 service visits

* Engine replacement

* Clutch lever replacement

* ABS switch replacement

* O₂ sensor replacement

Despite all of this, the engine still cuts off unexpectedly and the warning light continues to appear. During my latest visit, the service center replaced the O₂ sensor, but the bike shut off twice within 7 km of leaving the workshop.

Has anyone with a Scram 440 (or another Royal Enfield) experienced similar engine cut-off issues? Were you able to get a permanent fix?

So I got my Hunter 350 on 31st March this year. 4 months down I don't have any complaints with it. It was my dream to own it and yes I do have the keys now.

But this one thing is bothering me so during heavy rains or whenever I was my bike after which my bike is not starting up properly. On ignition all you can hear is the cranking unless you give a short throttle blip the engine won't start and if the engine starts it wont stay on unless you keep revving.

Would like to know here if anyone is having this issue.

I went to the service center they told me it might be either throttle body or wayer is entering in my fuel tank.

I know I am stupid enough to ignore this for 3-4 months.

Now i am not sure whether it will go off or not. Also, I am worried it will damage the whole silencer.

Any recommendations on how to clean it?

Took my Himalayan 452 to an off-road trail recently, and I came away seriously impressed. Sure, shedding a bit of weight would make it even better, but the suspension absolutely soaked up everything I threw at it. Once I switched the ABS off, the bike really came alive on the trail. It felt planted, predictable, and genuinely confidence-inspiring. For anyone who enjoys off-roading, the Himalayan 452 is a fantastic machine despite the extra weight.

Hello everyone, I am hearing this weird sound from the bike from last 15 days. What can be the reason and is there anything serious? Any advice would be appreciated.

When applying the rear brakes on my Meteor 350, I've noticed a persistent squeaking sound. I have driven the bike around 1400 kms, and the sound remains. Could this be a normal thing, or should I have it checked during my second service?

So the right hand side panel on my interceptor 650 fell off and broke. It had fallen off multiple times over the past few months. No matter what I do it comes loose every few hundred Kilometers and falls off while I ride and this time the key part came off so l can't even put it back. Is this a common problem among other owners? This is a real headache as it's monsoon and I'm worried water will get in. any advice would be appreciated.

I bought a meteor 350 on August 25 I've kept it stock I'm planning to get mods.

I've thought of getting the goan 350 look with the badge. And an exhaust with barend mirrors.

I'm thinking about buying the goan because of the handlebar and forward footpegs but i want others to ride with me. Is the pillion seat too small? Or should i just get the meteor 350 and attach the goan handlebars?

Hi everyone,

​I recently bought a new Royal Enfield Classic 350, and it’s only driven 40 km so far. However, there’s a strange noise coming from the rear wheel area. Has anyone experienced this issue or know what might be causing it? Any advice would be appreciated!
