The Royal Enfield Piston issues

ROYAL ENFIELD 500 CC PISTON

NOTHING CAN STOP A BULLET

When we bought the bike the piston was already broken. We bought it in Lucky Enfield Garage in Arambol. I had been driving the bike for a few weeks and it made a ticking sound when speeding. The guys at Lucky Enfield Garage didn’t know what it was and suggested to open the engine. I thought that because the bike didn’t make any black smoke that it couldn’t be the piston until I found out the oil was going very fast.

They opened the piston and showed me how the piston was moving in the combustion chamber. There was space between the piston and the combustion chamber that isn’t supposed to be there. Also on the inside of the combustion chamber you could feel some very light damage. The piston needed change. It was the most expensive repair we had. It costed us Rs 7500 to fix it. What a bummer.

Lucky Enfield Garage in Arambol should have noticed this, and I think they did know and sold us a broken bike. They also did some bad repairs like changing the sprocket with a new one that was n’t an original. We had to replace this piece of shit after 5 days because all the teeth had grinder of! Never buy copy parts! Make sure you don’t because most copies are really shit quality!

Never use Royal Enfield copy parts. They will have the problem return back again and again.
