moteur UCE
Explanation:
"2008, importation Europe : nouveau moteur UCE EFI (à injection) pour répondre aux normes européennes."
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Enfield

"As a result of work spanning several years, a new set of engines was introduced. These were the unit construction engines (UCE). The 350 cc UCE found use in the domestic model Thunderbird TwinSpark in a configuration with two sparkplugs per cylinder, with integrated 5-speed left-shift gearbox. It has not been featured on any of the Bullet models, domestic or otherwise. By 2011, the old cast-iron engine had been completely phased out, including in the Standard 350 model. Now all Royal Enfield bikes are only available with the all-aluminium UC engine."
