Hello bulletiers,
This is my first review and m very exited abt it! K then here it goes. I just gave ma 12 boards dis year(2009-10) and owning this royal beast was always an childhood fantasy!! When i was in 8th and 9th i used to stare for long wherever i saw a bullet........... And people around stared at me... That what the hell i was doin... It was very embarrising but i couldnt control it!! My love for bullet ever kept increasing!!!
And now as ma boards ended i started riding my das rx -100 for a month! Then he got the confidence that i knew how to ride a bike which was the most imp. Thing which he req. To get me a bullet!! Then he promised me one after the exams!! Result came got 81%.... And finnaly finnaly we went to d royal enfield showroom in gujjrawala town. I was very confused abt the fact that which bull should i tame!!! I inqired a lot abt it frm a no. Of friends then even surfed through this website(mouthshut) and read each and every review..... It was crazyyyyy..
But finnaly i made a decision.... And booked a silver electra 4s
Reasons behind selecting this bull were very clear--
1) the ever suucessfull cast iron engine!
2) a royal thump (which i wouldnt find in machismo without changing the exaust!!)
Actually the electra 4s is a pretty cool combination of old and new features ! First of all the ger system(1 up and 3 down) gives u an differnt and unique feeling. Secondly new feature include the gas shock absorbers !! They work smooothlyyy.
In the begenning 2-3 weeks it used more petrol coz the engine was settling itself and then it became more smooth and low petrol consuming...
This was the technical part now the emotional one!
I got my bullet after 5 days of booking, those days were lyk hell! And the day came !!! I got my bullet delivered at home. It looked so bfull!!! Eye catchy.... I wanted to ride it immediately but i couldnt start it !! Then the guy who delivered the bullet explained me the art of starting it! After a few tries i was able to start it .. Just as put the first gear i got a chill down my spine.... It was such a great feeling..... I went out and refulled it for 500 bucks and went out and came back after 1 hour. I rode my bull at 35km/hr. It felt great.
And now whenever i am out for an evening round each and every person turns around to see me and my bull... It has become an i candy not only for me but also for those standing by!!!! I am creating envy
So anyone thinking abt buying a bullet dont think!!! Just go to the nearby showroom and get one! Its worth it!
Ill get back with another review soon
Happy thumping
