  • The beast rolls smooth

    6 years ago


    Deval

    I own a classic 500 tan , its a beast to own . It has tremendous power and torque you always are left with some power band in any gear and any rpm . To ride these it is a privilege and the glide over road just makes it more elegant . The looks are undoubtedly one of classiest and simple odometer adds it to the vintage look and feel . I would just like to see some changes in heat dissipation or cooling methods or else its a great deal and one will never regret owning so.

    5 years ago


    Vishal Hunalli

    Hi, i have purchased classic 500 in October-2015 , i would suggest rather request not buy this motorcycle , this is the worst motorcycle, i have seen in my entire life, it's am saying after using it for just 17000 km , one fine day when i riding the bike small knocking sound started coming from engine within a ride of 5 km it was so loud that i stopped the bike & called mechanic of re , he said there is a major problem, i had to replace entire engine , it cost of 27k , till date i have regular servicing of re from showroom ,still this happened ,after asking service engineer he said is this problems happens in most of 500 , somehow i tried to digest this but one more surprise was waiting for me against in 6 days of time motor stop working i again called the mechanic he said there is minor issue with starter . He did sometime & it starting but this was not the all , against after two days motor stopped working , i got really frustrated & asked re service to solve the problem , he said start has got damaged its be on repair , i had spent more 14k on this Conclusion : 60 k spend on repairing for use of 17k km, not worth for a bike like this.

  • Best bike for all people

    3 years ago


    M Vishnu

    One of the best motorcycle in the indian market ..If you love daily commuting and long drive definitely you have to go for this motorcycle.. Riding experience in this motorcycle is awesome you can hit 250 - 300 km stretch in this without stopping.. Top speed you can hit 120km/hr without any hassle.. Breaking is good in this motorcycle.. Mileage i got 30kmpl in bangalore city and highway you get 32-35 kmpl depend how you ride the motorcycle. Servicing and maintenance is cheap compare to other premium bikes in this segments.. Talking about the looks of the bike is great retro look ..You won't get bored about looks and eye catching motorcycle when you ride through roads ... Overall best motorcycle for all people definitely you have to own if your fan of re motorcycle.

    Vijay Wanjari

    I am riding this beast for the last 12 years on the streets of pune for my daily commute to the office, practically doing anything whenever I go out. Strong built, reliable, good torque helps you cut the city traffic. City mileage ~ 28kmpl. Servicing costs ~ 3500 to 4000 /-. One issue: frequent clutch cable breaks.

    I own a classic 500 tan , its a beast to own . It has tremendous power and torque you always are left with some power band in any gear and any rpm . To ride these it is a privilege and the glide over road just makes it more elegant . The looks are undoubtedly one of classiest and simple odometer adds it to the vintage look and feel . I would just like to see some changes in heat dissipation or cooling methods or else its a great deal and one will never regret owning so.

    3 years ago


    M Vishnu

    One of the best motorcycle in the indian market ..If you love daily commuting and long drive definitely you have to go for this motorcycle.. Riding experience in this motorcycle is awesome you can hit 250 - 300 km stretch in this without stopping.. Top speed you can hit 120km/hr without any hassle.. Breaking is good in this motorcycle.. Mileage i got 30kmpl in bangalore city and highway you get 32-35 kmpl depend how you ride the motorcycle. Servicing and maintenance is cheap compare to other premium bikes in this segments.. Talking about the looks of the bike is great retro look ..You won't get bored about looks and eye catching motorcycle when you ride through roads ... Overall best motorcycle for all people definitely you have to own if your fan of re motorcycle.

    Vijay Wanjari

    I am riding this beast for the last 12 years on the streets of pune for my daily commute to the office, practically doing anything whenever I go out. Strong built, reliable, good torque helps you cut the city traffic. City mileage ~ 28kmpl. Servicing costs ~ 3500 to 4000 /-. One issue: frequent clutch cable breaks.

  • The beast rolls smooth

    6 years ago


    Deval

    I own a classic 500 tan , its a beast to own . It has tremendous power and torque you always are left with some power band in any gear and any rpm . To ride these it is a privilege and the glide over road just makes it more elegant . The looks are undoubtedly one of classiest and simple odometer adds it to the vintage look and feel . I would just like to see some changes in heat dissipation or cooling methods or else its a great deal and one will never regret owning so.
