Vinod Dasari, CEO of Royal Enfield said, "Since 2009, the Royal Enfield 500cc motorcycles have proudly set the stage for the middleweight motorcycling segment in India. The Classic 500 in particular has garnered success for Royal Enfield across various international markets with its sublime retro-chic design and engaging ride experience. As we sign off the last of the Royal Enfield 500cc motorcycles, the Classic 500 Tribute Black is an opportunity for aficionados to own a piece of Royal Enfield and motorcycling
history"
