I agree with Abhishek3001. The spark plug needs to be removed and examined.
If the center electrode insulator is black and sooty, that is the cause of the misfires.
The most likely thing that can cause the rich air/fuel mixture that will cause this to happen is a clogged or dirty air filter which will restrict the amount of air the engine can breath.
Cleaning the air filter and replacing the spark plug could be all that's needed to restore the motorcycles performance and to keep this from happening again.
Normally, the spark plug heat range the motorcycle comes with will be adequate. Royal Enfield chose it because it works for most riders.
Notice I didn't say it works for all riders.
People who ride very gently or who take very short rides which doesn't give the engine enough time to thoroughly warm up can have fouled spark plugs simply because of the way they ride.
In cases like this, going to a "hotter" spark plug heat range can solve the problem.
I'm going to assume that some people don't understand the "hot" and "cold" "heat range" a spark plug is made to. Those of you who already know this might want to go to another post.
For the curious, read on.
Spark plugs have a ceramic insulator that positions the center electrode.
This insulator not only positions the metal electrode tip but it cools it as well.
If this insulator gets coated with carbon from partially burned fuel, the carbon will cause the high voltage that should be making the spark by jumping the gap to the ground electrode to travel directly along the insulator to the metal spark plug body without making the spark. Without a spark, the air/fuel mixture won't light producing the misfire.
When all is well, the center ceramic insulator will get hot enough while the engine is running to burn off any carbon that tries to form on it. This amount of heat will cause the center insulator to develop a light tan to white color which is good.
The temperature that this insulator and the spark plug tip operating in this range is between 400°C and 800°C (750°F and 1470°F).
If the spark plug center insulator looks black, it is conducting the heat away from itself to the body of the spark plug faster than the heat is being produced.
Short low speed trips or long periods with the engine idling can cause this to happen.
We call this type of spark plug, "cold".
If the spark plug center insulator looks glazed or blistered, it is not conducting the heat away from itself fast enough to the body of the spark plug. Running the engine fast with wide open throttles can cause this.
We call this type of spark plug, "hot".
So, why not just use a "hot" spark plug to solve the carbon problem?
Because if the spark plug is too hot it will cause the air/fuel mixture to ignite before the spark happens. This "pre-ignition" can destroy an engine.
The spark plug companies understand this so they make their spark plugs in different heat ranges. Cold plugs for high speed hard working engines and hot plugs for low speed easy working engines.
Because there are many different conditions a engine might be used at, the spark plug companies provide several different heat ranges of plugs, often 3 hotter and 3 colder than the "average" spark plug they make. These different heat ranges are given by a number that is buried in the spark plug number.
For instance, the Bosch spark plug my RE 500cc engine came with is a # WR7DDC4. The 7 represents the heat range.
The NGK spark plug I replaced that plug with is a BPR6ES. The 6 represents the heat range.
I would like to say one can just go with a higher number to get a "hotter" plug or a lower number to get a "colder" but such is not the case.
Some spark plug companies use a higher number to represent their hotter spark plugs while other companies use a lower number to represent their hotter spark plugs.
Bosch uses a higher number to represent a hotter spark plug.
NGK uses a lower number to represent a hotter spark plug.
There are charts available on the web that give the answer to which way some companies use.

If all of this mystifies you, go to a GOOD mechanic. He will know what you need.
Going to a certified, official dealers mechanic might not be the best answer though.
Many of them don't understand spark plug heat ranges and often they are told they should only use the spark plug the company has selected.
As we just learned, that is not always the best answer for the way
you ride.
