Royal Enfield Thunderbird Two Wheeler Insurance

The Thunderbird has been a part of the Royal Enfield stable since 2000, getting an update nearly a decade later in 2009, with the 346cc engine powering all the 350cc models. Late 2012 saw the Thunderbird 350 get a facelift, with a new fuel tank, digital instrument cluster, projector headlamp and other cosmetic enhancements, making it quite the looker. Like its Royal Enfield siblings, the Thunderbird is a cruising motorcycle, for the modern generation. Despite being discontinued, the Thunderbird can still be spotted on the roads, a testament to its success.

Popular Royal Enfield Thunderbird Variants

1
Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350 Standard
The Thunderbird 350 comes with disc brakes, telescopic forks, twin gas-charged shock absorbers, and an analogue instrument cluster for a truly retro experience. The twin-spark, 4-stroke engine is paired with a 5-speed gearbox, yielding 19.8bhp at 5,250rpm. The high torque at low revs means there’s enough power to get this hefty motorcycle up and running in city conditions.

Types of Royal Enfield Thunderbird Insurance HDFC ERGO Offers

The Thunderbird 350 was crafted to conquer roads of all sorts, be it in the cities, or beyond. And as is the case with cruisers, they are bound to experience rough roads that challenge the bike’s capabilities, and integrity, requiring frequent maintenance and possible repair-work, before or after every trip. To safeguard yourself financially, against these expenses, while also protecting yourself against accident-related damages, you need a good bike insurance policy. While a third party bike insurance policy is mandatory as per law, the most recommended option is a comprehensive bike insurance policy for Thunderbird, to cover a wider range of risks. At HDFC ERGO, we offer a host of insurance plans to protect you financially.

Recommended by experts, your new Thunderbird should be protected with this holistic policy. It is a comprehensive bike insurance policy with a 5-year third-party liability component, and an annually renewable own damage component, ensuring you’re covered adequately, and for long.
