2007 Enfield Bullet 500 Deluxe Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Enfield for the classic motorcycle segment, the 2007 Enfield Bullet 500 Deluxe pairs a 499 cc (30.5 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 22 HP (16.1 kW) at 5,400 rpm while maximum torque reaches 25.8 Nm (19 lb-ft) at 3,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 44.1 HP per liter and a 2,400 rpm working window between peak torque (3,000 rpm) and peak power (5,400 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the Bullet 500 Deluxe measures 168 kg (370 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.64 kg per horsepower). The 14.5-liter (3.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 125 km/h (78 mph).
