Royal Enfield 500 and Harley Davidson Street 750 are the two
famous names in cruiser bikes category. Although we cannot compare each other,
because apart from maintenance and price Harley-Davidson Street 750 would have
a clear chit on every parameter, we have just made an attempt to check that
whether Harley-Davidson is a good upgrade for Royal Enfield or not. Coming to
the Street 750, as the name suggests it has a massive street presence. The bike
comes with a beautiful engine, which is easy reviving and lovingly refined.
With comfortable seating ergonomics and easy handling, Street 750 comes up as a
decent motorcycle to ride.
Royal Enfield Classic 500
Highlighting its technical configuration, the bike comes
equipped with a 2-cylinder, fuel injection 749 cc engine, which churns out a
maximum power of 47 bhp and highest torque of 60 Nm. In order to transmit the
produced output to its wheels, the bike has a 6-speed manual gearbox. On the
other hand, equipped with a potent fuel injected 500 cc engine and wrapped in a
disarmingly appealing post war styling, Classic 500 promises to be the most
coveted model from Royal Enfield in its history.
Harley Davidson Street 750
Be it power, reliability, efficiency and simplicity – this bike
has it all. Royal; Enfield Classic has the potential to turn heads that too not
because it wants to, but because it cannot help it. The auto aficionados
appreciate this bike not just for the music it develops while on road, but also
for the feeling of power and strength that it signifies. The bike comes
equipped with a 4-stroke, Twinspark engine, which has a displacement of 499 cc.

Royal Enfield was the name under which the Enfield Cycle Company made motorcycles, bicycles, lawnmowers andstationary engines. The legacy of weapons manufacture is reflected in the logo, a cannon, and their
motto "Made like a gun, goes like a bullet". Use of the brand name
Royal Enfield was licensed by The Crown in 1890. The originalRedditch, Worcestershire based company was sold
to Norton-Villiers-Triumph (NVT) in 1968.
Royal Enfield produced bicycles at its Redditch factory until it
closed in early 1967. The company's last new bicycle was the 'Revelation' small wheeler, which was
released in 1965.[1] Production of
motorcycles ceased in 1970 and the company was dissolved in 1971.[2]
In 1956 Enfield of India started assembling Bullet motorcycles
under licence from UK components, and by 1962 were manufacturing complete
bikes. Enfield of India bought the rights to use the Royal Enfield
name in 1995. Royal Enfield production, based in Tiruvottiyur, Chennai, continues and Royal Enfield is
now the oldest motorcycle brand in the world still in production with the
Bullet model enjoying the longest motorcycle production run of all time.[3][4] In May 2013 a new
assembly facility was started at Oragadam, Chennai.[5]
