Expert Reviews on Royal Enfield Bikes

The Royal Enfield Levis 511 motorcycle jeans have been my go-to riding denims for the last three months. I have used it for shoots and also for my office commutes. In fact, I also used it extensively during my ride to Mangalore on the Meteor 350. With all that and more, I did a little over 5000kms in this pair of jeans and these are my observations.

What are Iridium spark plugs? Are they really an upgrade over the stocks ones? And finally are they worth the extra money? These are just some of the questions we intend answering in the course of this product review.Read full review

The Drystack Stormproof saddlebags is that last set of bags from Rynox that was sent to us for testing and review. We decided to introduce this at the last because the first few ones were kind of universal and could fit in almost all motorcycles.

The Meteor 350 is a brand new motorcycle from Royal Enfield. It replaces the popular Thunderbird series. So it somewhat looks like it but not a single bit has been taken from it. We tested this Royal Enfield for our roadtest review last month and came out extremely impressed. Read full review
