We have had Royal Enfield for like 50yrs it's heritage grandfather passed it to my father and in 2014. I got my hands on it. It's 1959 g2 my dad kept it alive and was kept away for 10yrs restored it to it's glory and man that machine is just awsome. I ride her everyday keep her clean and work on it every weekends it has some oil leakage and some small issues with Amal carbs but it's the best time it's like meditation. I had no clue about working on it but a great guy thought me how naggy she is and if pampered can give you the best time. I still look at her the way I use to when I was 10 yr old. the old g2 has a really beautiful note which is loud but hits the sweet spot the thump is simply awsome Most imp issue is morning start up trying to start her is biggest hurdle in the morning . Indians love Enfield and the history it has with it. I don't know a timeless piece like 'Enfield' could be ever be replaced, I really loved the way you kept your bike clean and pampered it trust me Enfield needs to be pampered and loved or else it shows nasty attitude specially mine which kind of marks it's own territory 😂on it's own...great ride hope you keep that engine thumping around😉.

Can you say: "old school macho"! A biker I met at a bike show had an Enfield and thinking they were no longer produced, I commented on what a nice restoration he did on the bike. Restoration, this is a new bike he replied! He went on to tell me that he had an Japanese Crotch Rocket and a Harley, but he enjoyed riding his Enfield more! I like all the Enfield models but for me personally, I prefer the Himalayan model!

I'm impressed. The gloss gives a beautiful depth to the colour which I think is way better than the factory matt finish. In fact, the factory matt green looks more like a model-makers colour.

This is perfect as a day to day bike. I replaced the FI with a carb as the injection will fail under very cold and damp weather for starting up. Now it is just the best machine I ever owned. Not a lot of power, but superb torque and enough to keep up on motorway with two people and luggage. No sweat working all day long. Very fun, good brakes, supension and hard as nails. If you don' t trust your local garage you got a bike that can have anything done or repaired with basic tools and little knowledge without any person to help you(not like you' ll need it very often). For over a year this one (ABS model) has been my only vehicle and I am really happy with it. It is a super bike! And please, don't consider it a "weekend ride", this one is really a good, practical and fun machine with an excellent price

Never had trouble starting mine in any weather, and would always kick start on the first or second kick, I loved to use the kick starter, my electric starter. hardly ever got used. If they had a dealer in PEI I would be getting another one. I put a lot of Km on my bikes so like a dealer close, plus the fact it cost close to $50 to get of the Island which I don't think we should have to pay, to use the bridge.

Thanks so much for taking us around your bike - very enjoyable to see. I have to say that although your changes & improvements are not drastic, they all add up to make quite an impact on the overall look . . I particularly like the gloss effect that you have achieved with the paint - before you explained this I wondered if perhaps you had had it clear coated gloss, or if this was a factory variation I was unaware of - whatever, the effect is very pleasing and I admire the quantity of sheer effort you must have put in to create this look. Among all of the other detail changes and mods - I think the seats have the most pleasing effect on the appearance - British seats of this period (30's - 50's) are quite distinctive -sadly the Enfield o/e does not have the right style at all - your change to a more authentic style really does look good and 'correct'. . Clearly you love owning and riding your Royal Enfield - I hope you continue to enjoy your bike for many, many years to come . . well done sir and thanks for sharing with us .

Kick starting - The EFI really does only require a lazy prod, but all the way through to the end of the stroke. Pulling the clutch in will free off the clutch and turn the gearbox over and stir up the oil in there, not sure if it aids starting but it does stop it lurching going into 1st. The ignition runs up the fuel pump and this seems to prime the injector (rather like tickling a carburettor), so if she doesn't start first time, switch off and back on and wait for the MIL lamp to go out. The cold start is an air bypass that raises the idle speed and enriches the mix slightly for starting, use it with a closed throttle; when the motor is hot use almost full throttle and not the cold start. The kick should only be a lazy prod all the way through to the end of the stroke, no leaping up and down.

I can definitely tell you love this bike! It's absolutely amazing how much you have improved it with these modifications as such. I love the glossy look of the green better than the matte. It looks so nice! Great job! I have a 2007 Suzuki S83 Boulevard 1400 and I would love this as a second bike for trail riding. I'm very interested, and they're starting to get a bit popular in the USA. I'm torn between the classic and the new 650 Interceptor. I love the Kickstart and that and the beautiful classic look of the classic, but I may be leaning towards the Interceptor if the Kickstart is pretty much useless which is disappointing to say the least. Great video and enjoy your Royal Enfield. ☺️
@aaronb.6543
6 жыл бұрын
Thank you very much. I truly do love my bike. Our time on the road together is always a pleasure. I also like the interceptor look as well but my heart is with the Classic 500. The organic sound and feel is unlike any other bike I have ever ridden. The kick start frustrations i experienced early on have virtually disappeared over time. (Enfields have a tendency to mature very nicely) I pretty much never use the electric start anymore. Its simply a matter of a steady and deliberate follow through right to the end of the kick cycle one or two times and it starts. My personal advice is to go with the Classic. The UCE 500 engine has been in production for quite a few years now and the fine tuning over that time has made it a really beautiful and reliable machine. One thing I also know for sure...people who own the Classic 500 always look back over their shoulder one more time for a look when they park it and walk away. I know I do. Every single time. Whichever you choose I wish you many years of good times with it.

That along with patient running , the engine really settles down to a point where the vibes aren't annoying anymore , way upto 125 kmph. Hope these helps , Although the glossy green looks novel , I personally liked the matte version as it enhances the rugged look of the bike . Cheers
