Reviews of Royal Enfield Classic Stealth Black

First i was a little skeptical buying this bike but when i heard that sound and the felt the torque that this bike has made me feel butterflies in the stomach. It has been 6 months since i bought this black stallion still and i still feel those butterflies before ridding this beauty . This bike is definitely a head turner! when i ride this motorcycle on the road the heads of the people remains turned as they see this black beauty fly by . In terms of handling yeah sometimes it does sits on a heavier side and yeah this bike is really very heavy but when you are on the go suddenly all the weight of this bike just disappears. Every thing comes with some pros and cons and nothing is perfect right? mm.. This bike doesn't really have much . Yeah there are some issues with the bike like the paint. The paint job on this bike is thin and..... Yeah no one would really bother about average after owning this bike cause of being a 500 cc engine it drinks alot! the biggest problem with this bike is that it does not comes with abs as standard which i feel that royal enfield should have fitted this because when i push the brakes hard the rear tyre always locks which is a major con with this bike but overall this bike is a true real men's bike and first time in my life am so satisfied with my purchase.

About the Reviewer

Bikes of this particular brand needs a lot of care and maintenance. Now considering the stealth black colour, please note that it’s a matte finish colour, hence the aesthetic maintenance of the same would be a little difficult. This type of matte finished metal attracts more dust, hence you will need to clean the bike quite frequently. And also maintaining the matte finish is very difficult as compared to other gloss finish colours. The worst part is that you cannot just use any product to polish the metal parts of the bike, the reason being, the polishing products required for a glossy paint and a matte finish paint is not at all similar. You need to find the proper product so that the colour is maintained properly by regular intervals of matte polishing. I think this is the only aspect from the maintenance perspective considering any matte finish bike from royal enfield, which is mention-worthy. The rest of the maintenance aspects are pretty same for all the re bikes irrespective of colour or model. And trust me you won’t find much difference between the bs3 and bs4 model bikes except for a little bit of engine smoothness. The battery is good enough in the bs4 models to handle the aho feature. Just remember to cold start the engine every morning. That’s it. And yes if you are going to buy the stealth black re with rear disc brake, it will be a little bit of headache for the mechanic to fix a puncture as the rear disc assembly is very hard. The pros: known for classy old charm and powerful performance, very immediate and precise throttle experience, smooth riding. The cons: the absence of a fuel gauge and misleading reserve light does confuse the rider, downshifting is quite hard and lots of vibrations.

About the Reviewer

Good for all type of roads.Very good looking and neat, the engine sounds a bit more complicated.The handling is same compared to the old one but the new color is nice .This colour makes it less sensitive to scratches. Maintenance is one of the most important one, royal enfield gives the best maintenance facilities, the new brakes are perfect.

I took the new stealth black from bangalore white field motors in nov'17. Here is my experience about the bike.

My first impression when i saw the bike in showroom felt wow,

The matte finish stealth black looks awesome

Its gives the perfect ride experience. Re did a exceptional job by making bike flawless considering the other re bikes.

I din't felt any vibration when i gear up above 100 thanks re for this.

My first ride experience was from bangalore to hyderabad approx 700 kms which i finished in 9 hrs with few stops,i felt insanely awesome when took this to highway

Bullet lovers who is planning to buy i would say undoubtedly go for it

About the Reviewer

Let me start with so much hyped colour stealth black (sb) my buying experience at neerdmet organe motors was so pathetic i had to follow up with them multiple times and they never had an eta. Finally on jan 18, 2018 i got my hands on this bike. Riding comfort is excellent and looks are great i mean colour is awesome admired by everyone. After riding 500kms i am planning to return this bike and get a gunmetal grey reason being engine gets so warm that even pillion rider is feeling the heat. Regular commuters please avoid this bike and for classic 350. As-usual mechanic said after first everything will perfect and engines gets cool down but after riding just 4 kms i could smell the heat. God engine is spitting so much heat i had to stop and go back to the service station again as-usual they said after 1k kms engine would be all fine. Now i am planning to exchange this bike for a gunmetal grey 350cc. This can be used only on freeways.

My personal experience about this beast stealth black is not good. It's engine heats too much. Even the service center guys could not make it . They told me that this is normal, but i surely want to tell you this is abnormal heating .This is the only problem i had faced till now. Otherwise the looks are just killing. Pickup is amazing and mileage is 28 kmpl . Comfort is good while riding. Breaking has got abs which makes it much better to ride. Last thing i want to tell you that please wear a good quality helmet and drive safely.
