Been slack posting these from the other Sunday when I went to watch Tricky at Snetterton. Loads of nice bikes (and a couple of shonky Bandits ) but just a small selection of the ones I liked best.











Then this Sunday I spotted this outside Sportsbikeshop in Harlow, cleaner than mine was back in 97!! But then I bet it's not owned by a skint Uni student.

He's done a few routes here and gonna take me along soon to see how it goes.
He's been riding enduro for 20 years but enjoys this.

But not gonna use it for his enduro business

They're heavy but I don't think quite that heavy - the cooking model is 200kg & that one will be a bit more but I don't think not 60kg more?

Out cycling this evening I passed this old boy stood by his bike eating a bag of chips.
As I passed I noticed the engine cases looked odd so went back for a chat.

A royal Enfield diesel. I really like it for being very different.

200 mpg but it'll take you a week to get there

Older brother has one in yellow & yes he is very different, ever since he was young we reckoned he must be related to the milkman, I'm seeing him in July will see if I can blag a ride on it but don't fancy donning his ancient helmet - probably the same one he's had since passing his test in the late 70's. His previous bikes include a Ural combo, Norton ES2 combo & some some of fibreglass bodied trike, so the RE is a modern wonder as far as he is concerned.

This was sat next to me whilst I was waiting for my bike to be serviced.

Not for sale and going on the cost of the service I think I understand why they're not desperate for the cash.
