Royal Enfield has launched a new variant of its Bullet Twinspark called the Bullet 500.

This new variant gets tweaked styling, a larger capacity engine and upgraded brakes. The Bullet 500 comes in a new green colour, a silver and golden restyled Royal Enfield emblem, a backrest mounted on the grab handle for the pillion and borrows the tail-light from the Classic series.

The new Bullet 500 houses a four-stroke, twin spark, 499cc, single-cylinder and air-cooled engine which will breathe through a throttle position sensor equipped carburettor. This engine generates maximum power of 26.1bhp at 5100rpm and peak torque of 4.17kgm at 3800rpm.
