It's a Royal Enfield that no one wants to buy, they'd have to pay me to take it away

I wonder how much of a factor WFH has had on the industry sales figures now a load of us never go to offices any more

Re: Discounted new bikes.
In terms of value for money in the current market, I see no better deal by quite a long way. I probably ride mine more than the yamaha or bmw. Why ??
Wherever I go I see REs and owners are happy. No issue's reported to me.
This deals only on the continental this time, not the interceptor.

Re: Discounted new bikes.
When I'm out on the bike I'd say RE is the brand I see most.
It used to be BMW GS'.
They might not be the biggest seller, but they seem to be bought by people who actually ride them.

@Couchy was rapid on track on his, although he'd done a bit of work to it of course. But it showed it can be pretty handy if needed.

Re: Discounted new bikes.
The Continental does encourage aggressive riding though, think it's the riding position and the need to get it moving. Great fun all the same.

Re: Discounted new bikes.
I've just been looking at R-Es - some folk are asking more used than you can buy a new one for!

Re: Discounted new bikes.
I sold some stuff with them last year - they're good people to deal with. If you are interested give a bloke there by the name of Jim Gregory a call. I'll send you his number if you'd like.Taipan wrote: Thu May 15, 2025 8:16 pm This has a guide price for £2-2.5k. Wonder where it'lll end up?
