I
don't have a motorbike licence in England but have always wanted
to drive a big bike, so in India how could I resist the Enfield?
Not really a performance bike, more a cruiser I never saw the
speedo over 40 m.p.h they have a lovely sound more like a lawn
mower than a motorbike. Most Indian bikes are not that well
looked after, but a rough bike is just as much fun to get used
to.
My
1994 bike. Was knocked off by a Japanese man on a scooter
and broke a bone in my foot. The bike was a very good
one and mechanically very smooth with lots of protection
bars.
My
1995 bike. Was still a very smooth bike but not as
good as '94, it also lacked protection bars.
My
2003 bike. Almost a nightmare! The chain fell off,
the battery died, the back light did not work, there
were no protection bars and the gears were very hit
and miss. Still great fun to drive though! It also
had a side stand, very handy.
