Ahh RE. Repair Everyday
There's a fun story behind this bike. Back in India where its made, RE launched this 500 model first and told customers it was pretty much an exclusive item. A few months down the line RE launches the 350 version with near similar design. As usual, customers who paid a premium for the "exclusive" 500s got angry and began dumping their bikes in the garbage dump in protest. RE apologizes and offers them some deals which had hardly any takers.
