One thought on “Royal Enfield Thunderbird X Series – 350X and 500X

  1. Ugh if only RE can focus only building quality bikes than building more bikes. The himalayan has a ton of problems which needs to be fixed not to mention the other range of bikes that they have. It would be nice to see some quality over quantity.
