gregjet Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Chassis was designed by a serious chassis designer who knows his stiff. Still it is still long straight frame pipe runs and will prob flex a fair bit. Nice retro styling if you like that sort of thing. Go forth and modify my son...go forth and modify...

r1limited Posted November 8, 2017 Author Share Posted November 8, 2017 I actually think this company that has purchased Royal Enfield (Eicher Motors) actually the subsidery Royal Enfield India also owned by Eicher has done a great job keeping to the Royal Enfield Design. The image is the original Interceptor “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.” --Thomas Jefferson quoting Cesare Beccaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beemer Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Nice looking, simple, old school design but the question is, can they service their bikes in your area and how readily available are parts for it? Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1limited Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 There are Royal Enfield shops around the US. I have see a couple in the PNW running around https://royalenfield.com/usa/ “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.” --Thomas Jefferson quoting Cesare Beccaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo10 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I suppose because they are 'old school', they only "run around". 😊 Just do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
