The Royal Enfield Thunderbird is a cruiser style motorcycle produced by Royal Enfield Motors in India. It was first introduced in the year 2002 with a 350cc AVL lean burn engine and five-speed gearbox. The AVL engine was first introduced in the year 2000. AVL stands for Anstalt für Verbrennungskraftmaschinen List (German for "Institute for Combustion Engines"), an Austrian-based automotive consulting firm as well as an independent research institute. The Royal Enfield Thunderbird is known as Royal Enfield Rumbler in export markets.

In 2009, the AVL semi-unit engine was replaced with the new 346 cc unit construction engine (UCE). The bike was renamed Thunderbird Twinspark owing to the twin sparkplugs in the UCE. Other parts have seen only minimal changes from the original Thunderbird. The final drive chain is moved to the right side and it is the most obvious change from the old model apart from the new engine.
