Topic: Geez what a Thrill!!!
Message: Wow!...I bought a brand new Royal Enfield with a solo
saddle...I was gonna get a Kawasaki or Honda cruiser, but when I saw that
advertisement for the new Bullet Classic and learned they were only 5
grand, I was mesmerized with the idea of owning one....so I neagged my
wife untill she said "O.K., go buy one, just shuddup!".......Boy,
the first day I rode it around my small hometown, I was so proud my helmet
barely fit over my big head...I could not beleive the looks I got. Whenever
I stopped people would stare and/or gather around me....too bad I am happily
married, cause this bike is a chick magnet...O.K.,O.K., it attracts older
women with saggy boobs who have been around long enough to appreciate
the history of the machine, but thats bett!
er than a poke in the eye....It's fun to ride slowly by front yards of
upper-middle income neighborhoods and pretend not to notice the envious
drooling looks of the poor Men mowing their yards who look up to admire
my ride and wish they could figure out how to convince "their"
wives they need one too...poor bastards. Anyway, The Royal Enfeild
has served my mid-life crisis well....Go buy one!!! td

Topic: Triking a Bullet
Message: I'm thinking about building a trike on a Bullet. 22
horsepower isn't enough. How much power can I get, without hurting overall
reliability? I know I can open it up to 612 cc. At that size is there
an overheating issue? Could I drive it 2000 miles and know it won't break
down? Any help will be appreciated.- dlm

Topic: I.D. 1939 Royal Enfield
Message: Trying to I.D. 1939 S.V. vertical R/Enfield. It could
be a C model, but it looks like WD-C model. Is WD-C a military bike only
or was it also civilian?
My other half (who has been restoring bike for some years!!!!) thought
it was pre-war & non-military. Needs help or manual to finish job!!!
Engine No. 13460 also C/7132 Frame No. C13400 I think. Hoping to find
technical info to get bike going a.s.a.p.

Topic: Interceptors redux
Message: Bring back the 736cc Interceptors of the early 1960's
and I bet they would not only sell, but provide an additional draw for
the standard units. I owned a '63 that was just about the best bike I
ever had. (except change from steel oil lines to braided to avoid oil
loss)
