Royal Enfield

Over at 296, Rajiv Gandhi Salai in Sholinganallur, you will find our setup. Chennai- 600119 is a busy area, and the road outside is always full of traffic, which seems fitting for a place that deals with motorcycles. Royal Enfield has a long history, but here in this building, we are just focused on the day-to-day tasks. The facility is quite large and there is always a sense of movement, whether it’s bikes being moved around or people heading to meetings. It’s a bit different from a small local shop, but we still have those moments where we’re just sitting around a desk trying to solve a mechanical problem. The humidity in Tamil Nadu can be a bit much, especially in the workshop areas, so we all drink a lot of tea and keep the fans going. It isn't just about the brand; it's about the actual metal and the engines that we see every day. We have people from all over coming in and out, so the place feels very alive. Even with the global name, the staff here are just local folks who know their way around a wrench. We spend our hours looking at designs or checking the assembly line to make sure everything is bolted on tight. It’s a lot of work and it can get loud when the engines are being tested, but that is just how the atmosphere is at this Chennai location. It keeps us busy.
