Fardeen Khan recalls childhood memories of the Bullet 350
Reflecting on his long-standing familiarity with Royal Enfield motorcycles, Fardeen recalled growing up hearing the distinctive sound of the Bullet 350. He said the motorcycles ridden by older boys and Mumbai Police personnel left a lasting impression on him.
“I’ve grown up hearing the unmistakable thump of the old Bullet 350, with its single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. From the older boys who looked so cool riding them to the inspectors of the Mumbai Police Force on their Bullets, that sound was always something else. It’s stayed with me over the years,” he shared.
Explaining his choice, the actor said the Guerrilla 450 Apex stood out to him as soon as he saw it. “So when I saw the Guerrilla 450 Apex, I knew this was the bike for me. I just had to have it. Having ridden a lot of motorcycles over the years, I can honestly say this is one of the most fun bikes I’ve ever ridden,” Fardeen wrote.
