A thorough test of the Royal Enfield Bullet 500, in its Classic Desert Storm version. It is a bike that comes from the past (from 1955) and that has just the right changes to be able to be sold in Europe. Price: €4,649. It is a bike to ride calmly, to enjoy its aesthetics and to see how people fix their gaze on it as you pass by.
