Pros, cons & verdict

Pros

  • Immense low-end grunt pulls like a freight train from idle RPMs
  • Plush and spacious one-piece bench saddle accommodates rider and pillion in great comfort
  • Enduring royal legacy and collector appeal

Cons

  • Not designed for high sustained highway speeds beyond 95 kmph due to UCE vibrations
  • Heavy kick/electric starter system requires a well-maintained battery

Our verdict

The Bullet 500 is the grand patriarch of Indian heavy-iron cruising. Boasting a massive half-litre cylinder and timeless hand-painted pinstripes, it commands absolute respect on the road.
