Royal Enfield Classic 500 ("C5")

Picture
"Harking back to the ‘G2’ Bullet of the early 1950's, Royal Enfield’s newest model retained the British style that is inextricably linked to the world’s oldest motorcycle manufacturer.

 With its highly polished and detailed engine cases, 18” wheels and two-tone paint scheme the Bullet Classic exuded authentic charm and the exhaust note didn't disappoint either. Solo saddle with pillion seat were supplied as standard.

The Royal Enfield Classic range comprised:
  • Classic (see below)
  • Classic Chrome
  • Battle Green, Desert Storm and Squadron Blue
  • Despatch
  • Stealth 
  • Pegasus
