UCE Engine in Royal Enfield.

UCE Engine in Royal Enfield bullet Series.

So, the question is what is an UCE engine?

Well the answer is UCE (Unit Construction Engine) as the name specified this engine having a single unit unlikely Cast Iron and AVL engines series.

In this engine all three stages combined together and hence the losses decrease as i have discussed in my previous blog the losses of power in Cast Iron and AVL engines due to 3 stages was near about 33% while in UCE engines it goes down to 20% transmission losses in this the power generates t crank is 19.8hp and at sprocket near about 16hp.

So, the advantages of UCE engines over Cast iron and AVL engines are as follows:-

1-Transmission losses became lower hence power increment.

2-Lesser maintenance, due to single unit.

3-Better mileage, company claim its twin spark(UCE) engines having better mileage and power.

4-  No manual decompression, so starting this engine is just like any other motorcycle engine.

5. This engine has a longer life in different conditions. Why?

The points to complain about this engine are as follows:-

1- NO MORE THUMPING SOUND as we used to have in Cast Iron.
2-More Vibrations compared to Cast Iron, AVL engines have higher vibrations than CI but lesser than UCE.
3- This is the point which vary from person to person which is looks, the old bullets had a bulky look, personally my favorite is the Cast Iron one.
