Royal Enfield, the country’s leading performance bike manufacturer, launched the Tribute Black model of its famous bike classic 350 in the Indian market last year. The company has now launched the Classic 500 Tribute Black model in Australia and New Zealand. In all, only 240 units of this bike will be sold, 200 of them to the Australian market and the rest to the New Zealand market.
The company has set the price of this bike at $ 9,590 (about Rs 5.39 lakh, Indian currency). The bike is expected to reach the showroom by the end of this month. The bike comes with a two-year warranty and roadside assistants. The company has also given serial numbers on all bikes, with a glossy black look for this limited edition model.
The bike uses a 499cc capacity single cylinder engine that produces 27.6 PS of power and 41.3 Nm of torque. This engine comes with a 5 speed gearbox. Let us tell you that this engine was manufactured by the company at its plant in Chennai. Speaking of other features, touring mirrors and seating are offered in it.
Royal Enfield also offers accessories with this bike. However, the company does not offer military saddlebags in the Australian model, such as those in the UK. The motorcycle also uses hand-painted “Madras Stripes” pinstriping and rim stickers, making it even more unique.
