Royal Enfield in the Philippines – Overview and how to rent

Hello everyone! Book2wheel couldn’t be more excited to talk you about motorbikes, and when we say motorbikes we mean Royal Enfield! As many of you already know the Indian brand is one of the most loved in South-Eastern Asia, and this guide will help you to get the Royal Enfield best fit your requirements and personality.

Let’s start from a timeless motorbike: the Bullet 500. It’s a motorcycle that retains its design from almost 70 years, exception made for the front disc brake, electric start and pass light switch that brings the Bulletin this millennium.

It carries the same shape as the first model that made love this bike during the years. The driving position is comfortable and gives good control all over the bike thanks to its sit that allows a correct posture to cover many kilometres. It’s the perfect bike for touring and commuting, even if sometimes vibrations over 100 km/h could be annoying and the drum brake at the rear must be improved. The price of Bullet 500cc is ₱295.000

The Bullet 350cc is the smaller sister of the 500 with which shares the design, the price is affordable and the performances are good. The only flaw we want to underline is the drum front brake instead of the disc brake. It’s the lowest price motorbike of Royal Enfield in the Philippines, just ₱151.000.

It’s a perfect vehicle to own because its depreciation is low over the years. The issues faced by customers are the same as Bullet 500, too many vibrations at top speed and the drum brake rear isn’t the best, the price is around ₱313.000 – ₱329.000 based on customization.
