When we talk about traditional and royal motorbikes, the image of Royal Enfield motorbikes comes to mind. That bike is now in the Bangladesh market. A large number of buyers are waiting in line to buy it in Tejgaon, the capital.

It is known that the advance order (pre-order) process of Royal Enfield has started in Tejgaon, the capital, from 10 am on Tuesday (October 22). For this, many people have come in line from 3 am to avoid the crowd.

It can be seen on the ground that the queue of people to buy Royal Enfield in Tejgaon, the capital, has reached 100 meters away to the TVS Motorcycle showroom. Everyone is waiting to see and pre-book the most desired motorcycle. The employees of the company are struggling to take pre-bookings even inside the showroom.

A security guard at the showroom said that those who had pre-booked in the morning have been standing in line since 3 am.

A buyer who had pre-booked said, "I came here at around 9:40 am, but I was able to enter the showroom at around 1:30 pm. Then I was able to pre-book. My one-year wait to pre-book my favorite bike ended today."

Officials of Ifad Motors Limited, the manufacturer and distributor of Royal Enfield in Bangladesh, could not say how many motorcycles have been pre-booked so far.

In this regard, one of them said, "Many people have pre-booked online. Many people want to pre-book in cash, they came here today. As a result, we are all spending a busy time now. This calculation cannot be given right now. The pre-booking money has been set at Tk. 25,000".

The pre-order program for four models of motorbikes was inaugurated at a function organized at the Royal Enfield exhibition center in Tejgaon in the capital on Monday afternoon. At the same time, the Royal Enfield showroom was also opened. The prices of four Royal Enfield motorbike models in the domestic market have been set at Tk. 340,000 to Tk. 435,000. Ifad Group Chairman Iftekhar Ahmed was present at the event.
