New offerings from Royal Enfield: The Classic 500 Chrome & Battlegreen Models, previewed at Auto Expo India 2010

Barely months after Royal Enfield made a huge splash with it’s Classic UCE500 EFI model in India, here they are again, revealing two hot new color variations  at the 10th edition of the Auto Expo New Delhi.

Royal Enfield Classic Battle Green: This model carries an olive-green garb, not unlike the color of the Royal Enfield Bullet’s the Indian Army Jawans ride. This “Battle Green” motorcycle was the cynosure of all the eyes at the Royal Enfield pavilion. This Classic UCE500 EFI Model will not make it to Indian markets for now & will be exported to the USA in the coming months.

This primarily due to the fact that the Indian RTOs have outlawed the painting of civilian motorcycle in army colors. What a shame really, for the fact that Indian won’t be able to buy the  Classic UCE500 EFI with the terrific looking military green color scheme.

Royal EnField 500 Classic Chrome & BattleGreen Models

Royal Enfield Classic UCE500 EFI Chrome: Unlike the Military Green colored model, You and me residing in India can buy this maroon and chrome colored Royal Enfield Bullet Classic UCE500 EFI. This motorcycle model will be available in showrooms around the world from the month of April 2010 and yes, that includes India. In the US market, the Royal Enfield Bullet Classic UCE500 EFI  will carry a price tag of  $6000.  In India though, you can ride one home for about INR 1.4 Lakhs.(Source: http://www.royalenfield.com/company/events/autoexpophotos.aspx)
