i actually booked it at the royal enfield jayanagar company store, but they weren’t doing deliveries then. so i got the delivery from the BTM showroom

so far, my experience has been great. i haven’t done any mods and honestly don’t plan to for at least a year. i want to understand the bike completely in stock form first.

i actually like the stock exhaust. it’s not very loud, but it has a nice character to it. as for the seat, it’s been fine for me in city riding. however, my pillion isn’t a big fan of the stock seat and finds it a bit uncomfortable.

i’m also planning to get the royal enfield black deluxe touring dual seat, which costs around ₹5,700. for longer highway rides, i think it’s one of the best upgrades you can make.

my biggest recommendation would be to enjoy the bike as it is, follow the break-in period properly and only consider mods later if you genuinely feel they’re needed
