Best Reason to "Leave Home"
It has been almost 18 months since I have been using the Machismo 350 AVL.I have used Royal Enfield Standard 350 1970 model before when I was in Trivandrum. Once I shifted to Chennai, I have been waiting and researching to buy an Enfield bike of my own. Took Test Rides of RE Thunder Bird first.
I didn't like the styling and Handle bar Rendering. Electra was good, but as it is CI engine and the engine gets heated quickly, thus the performance was also below the expectation.
But Machismo faired well on my driving test. Good Performance, Superb styling, Good Mileage(Company warrants a mileage of 49 kmpl on standard conditions).
Booked RE Machismo Black on June 2009, and got it delivered by July mid.
Great Classic Look
The RE Machismo sports a great classic look with its all chrome finish. The Chrome finish on Tank is of superior quality. Also, the retro styling plus the Power adds to the charm. The Big Head lamp gives a kingly look.
Stability
With a well balanced weight, the machismo is a very safe bike. The Disc brakes gives an extra edge to it's stability; so one can be confidently cruising at speeds close to 110 Km. I've rode through almost all terrains, Flooded roads, but mach doesn't have any complaints.
