The Royal Enfield Bullet (standard 350/500cc) seems to be the favorite pick for such acts since decades now. Credit for this goes to its rigid frame and high torque at lower engine speeds that allows it to carry forward a huge payload easily. The BSF (Border Security Force) men’s team is also practicing side by side as seen in the video below.

The biggest formation act uses 9 bikes and almost 40 men! These soldiers will also perform on the Republic Day parade, an annual event that is attended by the highest political ranks and seen by millions of Indians via LIVE telecast.

The Royal Enfield Bullet is the standard pick of the armed forces for stunt displays. The older 500cc, cast iron Bullets are still being used by various stunt teams of the armed forces. Eventually, these motorcycles are likely to be replaced by newer, unit construction engined Royal Enfields.
