Wednesday, September 28, 2011
Royal Enfield
is a day away from the launch of the Classic Chrome and the Desert
Storm variants. The Royal Enfield Classic Chrome 500 and Desert Storm
500 are variants of their Classic line. Dr. Venki Padmanabhan CEO, Royal
Enfield and Mr. Shaji Koshy, Sr VP- Sales & Marketing for Royal
Enfield will preside over the launch event on 29th September 2011. The
variants will of course have a new paint job, and in regards to
technical specifications, variations would be minimal.
The royal Enfield Classic Chrome 500 and the Desert Storm 500 are merely
variants of the Classic line of Royal Enfield, which means that apart
from the new paint jobs that these motorcycles sport, the rest of the
motorcycle, including the mechanicals is bog similar to the Royal Enfield Classic 500. So, what you get in the Classic Chrome 500 and the
Desert Storm 500 is a couple of new paint jobs.
