Folks at the
Delhi-based XLNC Customs have modified the Royal Enfield ThunderBird to give it
a funkier profile. Called the Blue Evo, the bike can be made as a single
seater, as pictured here as well as a twin seater.
The Royal Enfield
Thunderbird Blue Evo gets an extended frame, fatter tyres and new alloy wheels.
The handlebar has been elongated while the twin pod headlamp adds to the
appeal. The instrumentation console has been skipped while the exhaust system
too has been reworked.
The Royal Enfield
Thunderbird, in stock form, is available in Stone, Marine, Lightning, Flicker
and Asphalt paint scheme. With its lifestyle-oriented product line-up, Royal
Enfield has been growing at an exponential rate. In fact, they have recently
overtaken TVS Motor to emerge as the fourth largest selling motorcycle brand in
India.
The Royal Enfield
Thunderbird 350 is the more affordable variant of the two engine options. The
carburetted 346 cc mill is capable of producing a maximum power output of 19.8
bhp and 28 Nm of peak torque. The Thunderbird 500, on the other hand, is
powered by a 499 cc fuel injected mill which is capable of producing 27.2 bhp
