Adaptive Cruise Control

The subject of this writeup is attributed to Royal Enfield - BULLET. Adaptive Cruise Control is a unique feature found in one and only Royal Enfield motorcycle. For the said feature to engage, the rider needs to do the following.

Ride up the bike to top gear (4th in this case) and pull the throttle to hilt. And that's it. RE Adaptive Cruise Control is now engaged. The way it works is simple. The noise level of exhaust note remains constant throughout and the bike itself decides the speed based on wind conditions, road conditions (up slope or down slope), drag and momentum. The rider may wish whatever - but RE Adaptive Cruise Control is designed to over rule one and all. As test rider I even tried chiming the EA Sports rhyme - I FEEL THE NEEED, THE NEEED FOR SPEEED - Over Ruled!

A science in itself for the machine that goes by the motto "MADE LIKE A GUN GOES LIKE A BULLET"
