Beauty Lies in the Beast. The Beast is Beautiful


I have been lazy and enjoying life for over a month now....should've posted this long back.

On August 2, I got BULLED. Graduated from Plastics to Metal, Got myself the all new RE Bullet Machismo 500 LB Limited Edition. A 2 week booking-delivery lag and I was riding, No Thumping On....

All Aluminum 500 cc, 24 BHP, 40 Nm Torque, >130kph speed...thats as good as anything is available in India...Woaaaah! she runs wild...throttle response is truly and honestly amazing...the power from each stroke is felt separately....

A low revving engine, making sweet noise, stands out in the crowd. High set saddle, traditional Speedo+Odo with Ammeter on the console (yeah!!! no fuel indicator) Thats Retro RE for you...

The Running in (as per the manual) is done now, running 1.5k+ now... and dying to hit the open roads with "NH" suffixed to them... :)
