Royal Enfield Bullet Rescue
9fingers:
Nice job on the Bullet! The are great bikes once you have them the way you want, as long as one has no delusions of passing cars on a freeway. Here is a pic of my 2016 Classic Chrome
, which I will be selling soon since I just don't ride her that much anymore.

great bike!
i had a 93 bullet 500 as a daily transport for a couple of years ,
bought as a wreck and rebuilt before using it.
I had remarkably little problems with it in 50.000 km of daily use
the number plate vibrated off , and the rear light bulb kept blowing until i fitted LED bulbs.
once properly set up these are remarkably reliable.
Shorty:
Enfields are like other classic bikes that have been around a long time. The old time owners put in the sweat equity to keep them running. The factory slowly started improving the brand until now, the J model 350s and the 650s are decent machinery. And of course the older guys swear their dinosaurs are every bit as good as the new ones, and possess more "soul." :grin: I enjoy observing the pride that riders get in India when they save enough to buy their first Enfield. It's a rite of passage. :thumb:

My daughter has a continental gt 535. I love riding that bike. although it won't start right now and I need to work on it again. I'm waiting on the classic 650's and I will be first in line.
twowheeladdict:
I can't justify the price, and the test ride proved that you can't really stand on the bike because of the forward footpegs making this just a styling exercise, but I really like the Trials Replica 500 RE put out in 2020.
The used ones I have come across have almost no miles which shows they are better to look at than to ride.
