The Royal Enfield Classic 500 Chrome has been
showcased at Nepal’s 2017 NADA Auto Show. Dugar Brother’s and Sons is the
brand’s authorised distributor.
The Classic Chrome is based on the Royal Enfield
Classic 500, but with a heavy dose of chrome. Apart from the blinged-out parts,
the bike gets a leather finish single seat. The motorcycle showcased is the
Chrome Green variant.
The Classic Chrome derives power from a 499 cc
single cylinder twin spark engine with fuel injection. The powerplant pushes
out 27.2 bhp of power at 5,250 rpm and 41.3 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. A
5-speed gearbox does duty in this motorcycle. The 35 mm front fork and the twin
rear gas charged shock absorbers hold the single downtube frame in place. The
frame uses the engine as the stressed member.
Brakes include a 280 mm front disc and a 153 mm rear
drum unit. The bike rolls on 90-section front and 110-section rear tyres. The
fuel tank is capable of holding 14.5 litres of juice and the bike tips the
scale at 187 kg kerb.
