- I am not kidding you guys - this is practically my first time riding a Royal Enfield for any serious duration.
Having always loved their classic looks and that auditory thump, I wanted to see if I could put up with a Royal Enfield long enough or would the infamous vibrations and the heavy plodding movements get the better of me.
Come along and find out as I take out the latest Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350 X in blazing red out for a spin. It’s a bike that fits the urban roadster billing to the T but is it all good news or does Royal Enfield’s reputation catch up with it sooner or later.

I bought it 3 months back... Here are my pros n cons of dis beast -
Pros -
1. It's one of the smoothest bullet i ever rode.... Vibrations are less as compared to classic .
2. Due to it's upright handle positioning ,it is easier to manuever in city roads. Handling is much better dan the traditional thunderbird n classic .
3. Looks too good !!!! Believe me when u take ur bike on d road ,it will definitely turn d eyeballs .
4. ABS has made d breaking much much better. I must say i was saved so many times just bcoz of ABS.
5. Seats are really comfortable. While riding it feels u r really riding a premium bike.
Cons -
1. Wen u apply brake suddenly ,there is a thudd sound from the front suspensions.... believe me it lowers ur confidence.
2. Fuel indicator does have a mind of its own. It hardly shows u d right fuel bars
3. Speedometer consoles though looks superb , but are of extremely cheap quality. It is clamped through a triangular bar which is too weak. As u r riding on indian roads, every now n then der will b a pothole or a speedbreaker... As u ride through dem the speedometer console vibrates and it will giv u a feeling dat it is gonna break off from d clamp. REALLY BAD QUALITY.
4. The missing problem !!! Bike will stop suddenly on d road .... It is really frustrating..den u hav to open the fuel tank cap..release d pressure n den it will start again.
5. Headlights look attractive but the range n throw of d beam is less as compared to classic .
Final verdict - If u can ignore d cons as mentioned above den it's a superb bike... It looks gud...feels gud..n will make u feel royal...But a small suggestion to RE - kindly make reliable bikes.. pls !!! RE enthusiasts spend der hard earned money on it... Atleast dont fool dem wid cheap materials . Kindly upgrade urself otherwise JAWA, BENELLI WILL DEFINITELY TAKE UR MONOPOLY IN D TOURER BIKE SEGMENT .
The best review of TB 350x i have ever watched In YT. After watching ur video, i confidently purchased TB 350x yesterday. thankyou man!!
This guy could be an RJ

True bruh wats wrong with skinny kids riding this!!
@@shivamkhatiwada227 aree bro kaise se mbbs kar rahe ho?
I’m also 5’6 but 56kg. But I’m 14 once bike is moving all the weight just goes away
Your voice is like a cricket commentator
very nice bike with nice colour red...riding this bike feels like i am the boss the road......
0:47 best part😂😂
Ajish Chaudhary what it exactly means
I brought TB 500🔥 2 years back .... top speed 135kmph ...80 90 its sweet spot....you can ride all day long
HI TESH A 500cc bike with a sweet spot at 80-90kmph 🙄 ...should at least be capable of touring comfortably at 105-110 kmph
Rider'sDen yea u can cruise comfortably on that speed also 😃 110 KMPH no problem...u have to get used with the vibration 😜
I don't watch your videos just because i love the bikes you ride, i watch each and every video of yours because i love you bro you're just amazing. Keep up man take care, god bless and ride safe ❤️
I own this beast and it never dissapointed me .peaople told me to go for dominar but still i sticked to this one , i never ever felt dissapointed because the kind of feel when i ride this bike is spectacular
0:45 😂
Sudh desi....mass
That's a big-bright-red-beautiful-underpowered vibrator.
lol
Hahahaha - that had me rolling
Perfection in a comment, finally found 😂😂😂😂
You literally described RE in 8 words
benznoel ferrao 😂
I actually test rode this bike....same colour red.Dont meant to offend anyone but this was my personal opinion.I have ridden a classic 350 for quite some time.The drawback I mentioned below may be associated with that particular bike,but I am listing everything I felt.
1. Seating position was comfortable for me.The riders seat itself was nice.But as savant bhai said the pillion seat is more form over function.
2. The ride quality was great.....I deliberately rode it over a couple of potholes to understand the ride quality and it was nice.
3. Surprisingly the clutch felt really light and nice to use.
4. I know that the Thunderbird weighs more than the classic.I also know that both have the same engine with same specifications.
But......I felt the Thunderbird to be lighter than the classic ( to my surprise).Also I felt the thunderbird had better performance than the classic although on paper they are same.
5.Typical RE vibrations are still there.......the handlebars,the footpegs and the mirrors were vibrating like hell.In fact the mirrors vibrated away from my default set position to some extent.
6.I had some difficulty getting adjusted to the forward set footpegs unlike the classic...mind you this is the first cruiser I have ever ridden.
7.Fuel gauge was kind of having some issue.
8. This was the most disappointing factor for me-the brakes.They were absolute crap.There was no feel,no feedback and no bite.I expected it to stop better than my friends classic 350 since it had no disc brakes at the rear unlike the 350X.Instead it was a big disappointment.
This is my opinion.I don't hate this bike,but for 1.75 on road in my place, I didn't find it worth tat money. As I said I didn't mean to offend anyone Ride safe
Well explained, Neeraj. Honest words👍🏼
Really ,the sound of the bike is awesome and different from all other models of ROYAL ENFIELD
I love your English
White looks like so damn great 👍🏻 ... much better than red
You've said the opposite
Sauvik Bhattacharjee saying true brother because white and black will be better match compareing red and black
Red is royal
@@sachina5550 ya right bro
I just come to your channel to hear your premium English. It's awe
your English is WOW.. 😘😘
I usually request the help of my pillion to disengage the clutch.
Boss !! Language and accent are fantabulous keep rocking bro and nice reviews
Your talking skill is perfect boss 👌👌👌👌
I am 18 and 65 kg and i Ride this bike it is easy to handle and in Red colour this bike is just Awesome😍
you nailed it man. The feel is the reason why people go for this bike:)
Awesome video! loved the humour! 😂
0:47 😂😂😂....The savant boss
Hahaha 😆
Savant Bro, Hero Xtreme 200R Review is due 🙏🙏
Savant, the commentary was just so good all throughout. Would never buy a RE with its current tech-sophistication but glad I watched this video. Entertainment mein kami nahi rehni chahiye!
Hahaha - shukriya 😀
@savant life. This version is not improved. Still no vibration reduction plates/counter balancer shaft or oil/liquid cooling or any development related to the engine that would increase refinement/reduce vibration
It simply gives a smile on a face when i see your videos 🔥🔥😍
Lots of love from NEPAL 🇳🇵🇳🇵
Thanks man - keep smiling 👍
That Bult reference was spot on. LOL
That accent of yours is so soothing bro ! 😁👍🏻
Not an RE fan. But the looks of the thunderbird x is amazing.
Agreed - love the way it looks.
Value for money❤
Royal Enfield Thunderbird X 😍
Truth RE are really heavy and u cant just tackle everything and move around on high speed here and there if u want , my weight is 54 and height 5'5 and I ride a RE bullet 350 1968 model its heavy but the feel and pleasure and the attention u get OMG is out of the world everytime I ride it on open road its just awsome m 16 and its a perfect bike to get attention lol
Don't worry about the weight it just depends upon your riding skill I'm just 50 kgs super skinny but still did not felt to much weight of bike so just get on the bike and full fill your dream of riding royal Enfield

I am 17, and 6ft tall, and 85kg, I easily ride on every model of Royal Enfield, I love this bulllth 🤣🤣🤣🤣💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice presentation undertaker
The palpable tension, the trying, not to offend anyone I have never seen in any of your videos but this.
Haha - I was also being jestful when I talk about the "feeeell" but not to the point that it's obvious to the RE blowhards 😉
first one keep it coming❤
Now that you've ridden this... please ride the Himalayan of you get a chance (bs4) and you'll be able to judge the future of the company... It's a world apart from the other re's
Mitresh Srikarunya I second this.
As a matter of fact the 2018 Himalayan review is coming up next week.
Mitresh Srikarunya world apart....alright.... couldn't RE find ABS in between those 2 worlds?
Manavendr No big deal it doesn't have ABS. Its front brake doesn't have enough bite to actually lock the front wheel. Also, the international version does not come with a switch to turn ABS off.
FodderRev but isn't it always better to have ABS, single channel, atleast
Not to offend anyone, (well if you are offended, can't help it) the bike is more show than go. That's all there is to it. If you're into that kinda thing then all power to you. However, when I spend my dough, I look forward to a good riding experience and a quality product, not just retro styling.
I'm a dominar lover but family wasn't in support of almost any other company. So was left with RE as the only option.
I had the same opinions and still do to some extent.
It's not really value for money.
I'm not one of those who think "bullt bullt hota hai" and all those dumb arguments.
But honestly I was too skeptical.
Even a test ride doesn't do it justice.
The vibration is an issue which once you feel the bike and know the right rpm to stick to, becomes non existent.
I bought a RE tbx350
Honesty after just 2 days of riding experience i was really very happy with it.
That ride quality, very surprisingly, is very nice really.
And I ride fast. Not that "stay within 40" kinda guy.
Sure my first preference was dominar and all but this bike makes me so happy in general ^~^
So yeah. No regrets at all.
Awesome presentation, gud vaculabary
I feel the handle is abit away ...and if u try to sit abit front..u can't sit for long because the seat is abit elevated at the tankers ends....which makes u to slip back. Is someone felt the Handel is abit away
luv your style bro keep uploading the videos....
Your English is so cool 👌👌👌👌 and the bike is also 👌👌👌👌
0:47 the Savant bhai
I got 1⃣ I am riding it... It transports you!
I stopped counting how many times you said feel :D
"Feeeeeeeel" 😁
Man! your accent is off the charts. Keep it classy and stylish. Also, if you can, start reviewing custom made bikes. That would be really interesting. Just suggesting.
Would love to - just don't know too many people with custom bikes.
11:28 , loved your commentary
This Bike is Awesome❤

Well, most people can't tell that I am reviewing a bike when I'm riding :)
Pls give the link of your camera and mic
Bajaj is ultimate low quality i hate that shit because i have before the rs 200 worst ....
Which is comfortable thunderbird x or classic 350?
It is not north india bro it is northern india..We are dividing ourselves by 'north India'..--- from another selfless southern indian
But what is the difference between them, I'm just curious to know.
North and South mean there are discrete boundaries..northern is just an orientational thing to indicate those people are living in relatively the northern direction from where he lives..doesn't cut them out
Your voice and english pronunciation is amazing. You sound like the guy narrating news on the BBC
I personally prefer this as cruiser cum street ride... For daily use and tripping... So all in one bike for middle class youth...
My 350x have heating problems....after some time of ride it's heat is freaking.
Plz give me any solution.
My height 5.3 is this bike is Good to buy in 2020?
I bought KTM DUKE 250 after seeing your review
Awesome - congrats man. Have fun and ride safe!
are Royal Enfield durable
What height is needed to be fit on this bike ??
भाई तुम्हारे मुँह से हिंदी सुनना बहुत अच्छा लगा🤣🤣😂😂
T350 or T350X which do you recommend?
What about vibrations mate ??
Please do 350 classic review
Just something I noticed!
Why do you always pull the clutch lever back in everytime you let go of the accelerator? Just curious
man you are a good orator, would like to meet you in f2f👍
don't compare with undertaker because he manages his Harley Davidson fat bob which is 322kg just like a bicycle he os so powerful
Bro why do u hold the clutch when ever u close the throttle
Girishu M.S Engine Breaking, I guess. I may be wrong.
Arvind K he's preventing engine breaking by holding the clutch, and when u engage the clutch back u feel a jerk
Poor riding skills bro nothing else
