Royal Enfield Thunderbird is a cruiser that offers comfortable ride with sufficient power on tap. Thunderbird is stacked with plenty of modern technology to make it more proficient. Royal Enfield Thunderbird features an all new left side gear-shift matched with the AVL 350 Aluminum Engine and a CV carburetor.

Royal Enfield Thunderbird is attractively styled with loads of chrome. There is minimal graphic display, the cumbersome fuel tank extensions are absent and at the same time weld lines are cleaner. The paint job is eye-catching with strong vibrant shades. The one-piece stepped seat provides adequate comfort and a firm cushioned backrest in true cruiser tradition has been added for the pillion.
