Royal Enfield showcases 4 custom bikes at Delhi store Seeing the trend towards customizing bikes and the customization levels for RE being high, Royal Enfield has decided to enter this market. Company has tied up with 4 bike designers to give custom look to its motorcycles. Currently in their store Delhi's Khan market , they are showcasing customized bikes with customization details and name of the company which has modified these beasts.
Quoting from the article : Quote:
Customising a bike takes a few months, depending on the changes you suggest to bike modifiers. And there is no package deal. You can ask just for the handle bars to be changed, or a custom seat cover to be installed. The price will be decided accordingly. "Suppose you have a bike which you use for long rides or even commuting daily, after some time you feel you want a fresh look. So, you can decide to customise your bike and you are good to go," said Som.
"A few years ago, people wanted motorcycles that were just visually appealing and have a striking stance on the road. With the evolving technology trend, 'Performance Driven Design' is taking shape wherein functional customisation of motorcycles is equally important as the aesthetic styling. Now people are keen on style with performance. Customers come to us with a layout in mind and the toughest part is to manage to meet their design expectations along with the providing them with a functional machine," said Reginald Hilt from Bull City Customs.
But there's a word of caution: Royal Enfield will withdraw the warranty from a new bike if its engine or frame are altered. So, you need to choose your customisation options carefully.
