2019 Royal Enfield Bullet Trials is an exclusive model from the Indian brand’s lineup. The motorcycle is essentially a Bullet with reworked parts to create a Scrambler out of the standard motorcycle. The launch of Bullet Trials marked another step from Royal Enfield for the adventure-loving community as they only had the option of Himalayan with them. Here are five must-know facts for the Bullet Trials.
5 Facts About 2019 Royal Enfield Bullet Trials
1) Trials Nameplate – The name Bullet Trials is all-new for the Indian audience while exactly similar bike with the same nameplate is available internationally since 2009. The bike is basically a stock Royal Enfield Bullet with a raised exhaust and a different seat in comparison to the long single unit seen on the Bullet series. Bullet Trials even comes with a different set of tires.
2) Looks & Style – The motorcycle is available with dual-purpose tires, chrome exhaust that looks right from a Scrambler, chrome headlight cover and black suspension covers. The rear seat section flaunts a carrier for luggage management while handlebar used here is more relaxed than the stock unit. The odd-looking painted frame doesn’t match with the overall profile of the motorcycle, and we feel that Royal Enfield could have done it better.
3) Engine Options – Royal Enfield Bullet Trials is available in both 350 and 500 version. The bigger engine is seen with a matt green frame while 350cc Trials brings red to the frame paint. The fenders are different in comparison to the Bullet series. The 499c engine is good for 41.3 Nm of massive torque. The engines are available with a 5-speed gearbox.
4) Ex-Showroom Price – Bullet Trials 350 commands a price hike of INR 28,000 over the regular Bullet 350, adding all missing features like an electric starter and ABS to the newcomers spec-sheet. The Bullet Trials 350 is priced at INR 1.62 lakh while the Trials 500 is priced at INR 2.07 lakh (ex-showroom). The majority of the price hike goes into ABS inclusion while rest is taken for reworked parts and equipment like dual-purpose tires. The lack of rivals for this segment make these two decent options for mild adventure lovers.
