"ATOM" Real Steel Royal Enfield Classic 350 Ownership Review

[kinshuk.arya]

Congratulations man for completing the coveted certificate.

[incarnation]

Thanks bro, however still waiting for the certification of the route once that is done then ill have the certificate. keeping my fingers crossed.

one thing i learnt which i forgot to share is, if you are doing such a run on RE its good to have Quick Throttle installed otherwise your right hand fingers feel the pain, and believe me that can put you through hell.

or else you can get a cruise control installed which is much cheaper than the quick throttle. i have purchased it however havent used it to give a detailed report. will use it on my next ride extensively and give a report on it.

the quick throttle is available at 550 with chawla auto stores in karol bagh which is made of plastic material, there are quick throttles with aluminium body which would cost you around a 1200 bucks.

on the other hand throttle assist or cruise control ( Not exactly but you can call it so ) is available only from outside india, atleast online thats what we can see. it costs you mere 100 bucks available on ebay U.S. or Aliexpress.

@Deville_56 i meant online its not available on any indian website. however i did purchase it from Aliexpress at the cost of 67 Rs which was shipped free of cost however had to wait more than 45 days to actually recieve it. so i can say i saved considerably however had to wait long.

review of this product will be given only after a few long rides. have you used it any pointers on using it.

Today Atom Died on me because of Low Battery Charge. it was a exide battery under warranty period which i had changed while i did Atom's Makeover. how can a battery die so soon.

have given the battery for Charging to see if it holds the charge or not if it does hold the charge then something wrong with electric circuit. if it doesnt hold the charge will have to go back to the retailer to get a new Battery.

I must tell you pushing an RE is no Childs play that too in hot summer my god i was drenched in my own sweat. and people looking at me in awe for the sweatty T from RE that i was wearing.

i prey almighty that next time something goes wrong let me not be in a situation to push it to the nearest garage.

Hi everybody this is my 1st post here I am riding RE since 1995. Have covered most part of world in RE, these girls (RE) need lot of attention, they are not just another chain driven bikes we need to understand them better, as my dad said RE bikes chooses you not you choose them.

[Milemuncher]

Many ppl wants to buy RE bikes but they don't know what they going to ride then comes complains. 1st thing in da morning start your I leave it on idling and most important think hold clutch and press self that will help your battery and starter bush life. Don't rise your bike 1 st few kms ride smoothly don't rush it's not a chain driven its push rod bike, so oil as to run every part of engine leaving in idle will help for oil circulation, you will notice this difference and a smooth ride. As RE's battery, wiring & rectifier is week try run ur bike with headlight on if are riding above 100 kms/ph for long distance doing so will not burn or dry your wiring or battery. Try to park you bike centre stand if you r not using it for long time and start once in every 3 days. Just follow these your Enfield will be your best companion. If any question please feel free to ask.

[incarnation]

@ Mile muncher i follow all the steps, its just that the battery isnt taking the charge the cells are weak i believe im yet to recieve a complete report on the battery. if its not the battery then ill have to check for any mistakes in the Alternator if not the alternator then for electrical leaks. so im just waiting to know the details on the battery so that i can decide the future course.

[kinshuk.arya]

if its just the battery go for amaron this time, somehow I have had better experience with amaron than exide.

@Incarnation !!! i must say that your atom is the first bike i have drooled over ! Hats off to your mod job
