Royal Enfield 350 Electra 'Bullet'

When I bought her, 21/2 years ago I paid 74,000INR total price on the road along with registration & comprehensive insurance which also included a fat boy rear tyre, 2 x leather saddle bags, sports exhaust, knee guards & 2 x bull horns that was $1,480 US back then. Have done just over 25,000 klms since with nothing but usual 3,000klm services. Plus a new set of tyres, brake pads & chain/sprocket set just changed. So she is very cheep to run less than 1 rupee per klm for maintenance & 1 rupees 50 paise for petrol, so total running cost less than 3 rupees a klm - nice . She averages 35kpl but that is in Delhi traffic. Flat strap lying on the petrol tank with nil head wind she will do 109 kph
