[no_sweat]

I have been to many Royal enfield mechanics in Pune and found this guy very useful. Knows what to do (I have found lot of Bullet mechanics "Lagao Hatodi" types), does interesting Jugaad (upgraded my Headlight from 35/35W to 130/100W in Rs 800 and many more), good knowledge. Only guy I trust with my Thunderbird.

I shifted to Mumbai about an year and half ago but still do all my work from him (I ride down to Pune once a month or two)

Mech Auto Clinic in Nigdi
Deals in Royal Enfields (Used to be a RE Authorised service center) and performance biking.

during my engg days (1993-95), I and all my friends were mostly bullet owners(can also read vice versa - all bullet owners were friends) and after trying several mechanics we finally settled on one in SwarGate, he used to have his garage shack under a tree, it was located near the swargate end of tilak rd. behind the gas station, I am not sure if he is still around as he may be reasonably old by now, his work was very good, always the right advice, his out-sourcing of odd jobs were always at the best places (read-quality) and his opinions were towards longetivity and quality rather than worry about billing, we never had to look beyond him ever. I don't know now, but Pune has a strong association with 2-wheel motor sports, you will find many experts in town who can convert bikes like bullet or even lambretta to a machine crossing 170KMPH for track races ...don't think they exist anymore though,

Can you please mention the detail address / land mark etc.

currently i m doing all work for my Electra at E-Squre.
A guy named as Ramesh. One more guy is also there "Suresh". He is the most unreliable guy i ever seen.

Some time done work with Alex (Near pune airport). He is good but very very expensive.

Just to alert the fellow Bulleteers in Pune. Stay away from a place called "Janta Garage" on Kharadi-Vadgaonsheri road. They are looters. Recently, I visited them to buy the kick-starter return spring. They took Rs 70/- from me while, the actual MRP is 17/- only (later bought a spare from Shree Spares, Bhavani Peth).

Basically, they have no ethics and will loot you based on your situation. I was urgently looking for the spring and was unaware of correct MRP before this.

Stay away from that Ramesh/Suresh they are one of the pathetic Royal Enfield mechanics in Pune. My friend serviced his bullet from this Ramesh guy and paid around 1000 for some work related to breaks etc in day or two he rescued somehow from a major accident. Afterwards he found that the breaks was not serviced however mechanic have charged for the same.

I have experienced same situation like others here and I was at decision to sell my STD 350 in year or so however my mechanic rescued me from that, he is well known RE authorised service guy.


Below is his contact details:
Umesh Pawar
Sadguru Service Center
Sinhgad Road Pune.
PM me if you need his contact number.

Thanks,
Vishal

Vishal/Subendra ji - Today I met Yogesh (he is a member here), My first impression - He lives, talks eats only Yezdi, BSA, Nortons . Amazing guy, he had a 63 model Jawa, yet to be restored. But he knows all about these Zeck beauties.

Then after I just saw another set of bikes in a parking lot of my neighbouring society - RD 350 HT (Prestine condition) and Jawa 350 - Twin Cylinders. Went in search of the owner but just could not locate him. Niether of the parking space owners were the bike owners...
