Hi,
Going for used Bike will be cost effective and also you can expect a good service from the same.With Royal enfield you can expect good service for atleast 15 years.

THUNDER BIRD RELEASED IN 2003 STARTING . NOW 6 YEAR PASSED . BUT I FEEL NO BODY PERSON HAVING IT FOR 6 YEARS CONTINUOSE IN USE .. MOSTLY R SELLING IN 1/2 YEAR . IT IS ONLY SHOWPIECE ITEM CANT DRIVE CONTINEUS 200KM .. AND NOW U CANGET IT 2003 /2004 MODEL KICK START @35/40K .. BUT IF U TAKE A DECISION TO BUY GO FOR SOME LATEST MODEL 2006/2007 MODEL SELF START MODEL @65 K .. WHY U DISLIKE STD 350 . IT CAN USE TILL NEXT 20 YEARS . YET U CAN FOUND 1975 LATER MODEL IN BEST CONDITION

Hi,
My Suggestion is dont go for older Thunderbird's. Buy a new one which is of Thunderbird Twinspark. It has got many features than a ordinary bullet and a thunderbird. So test drive it and make a conclusion of yourself.
