Wow , THOSE ENFIELDS ARE TUFF !!!! Grin

Ya'll remember , there are at least two three New Enfields coming to America this year :
two 650 twins
one Himalayas

Now all together .... "Wow , THOSE ENFIELDS ARE TUFF " Grin

If we could meet a an Royal-Endfield dealer's somewhere we could ask to do a Group-Ride on their demo bike !

Really , if we could go by a Endfield dealer while we are "out-and-a-bout" , I'd like to demo one of those Himalayas ! Wink

Nice picture Dave ! Cool

P.S. If we do one of those group rides , I think Stew should drive ... and NO-WHEELES !!!

I like the looks of it too , even more than my guzzi ... the chain final drive is the fly in the ointment for me.

There are chain treatments now that are not supposed to sling oil/grease like they used to. Is that what bothers you ?

Its the whole Chain Idea , the mess , the constant adjustment , the loose sometimes , then tight sometimes when it rains on it and it rust a little and quits getting where it don't straiten out and falsely seems tight ... etc. Then they get wore-out with tight spots and loose spots ...

I could see it on a dirt bike where flying rocks might be a concern ... But not on a street bike !
We've had belts for how long ??? Tongue

Yea , their time has come and gone , I just don't want any more chains.

Well , I feel better ! Grin
