tooldood Posted April 2, 2009 #1 Posted April 2, 2009 (edited) Royal Enfield Bullet 500 Military Motorcycle If Patton had designed motorcycles, he'd have built the Royal Enfield Bullet 500 Millitary ($5,545). A favorite among military enthusiasts the world over, the Bullet 500 is an eye-catching ride. And although it looks like something that rolled out of World War II, it handles just like a modern bike and has all the modern amenities, like a highly-tuned engine that has 23 BHP at 5500 RPM. Recent updates include lower emissions and better fuel economy (75 mpg). http://www.uncrate.com/men/images/2009/03/royal-enfield-military.jpg Edited April 2, 2009 by tooldood added pic
Freebird Posted April 3, 2009 #3 Posted April 3, 2009 I've always liked them. Unless something has changed, they are made in India now.
tooldood Posted April 3, 2009 Author #4 Posted April 3, 2009 Top end, is what? The article I read didn't say... but it is kinda cool.
painterman67 Posted April 3, 2009 #5 Posted April 3, 2009 just googled this ting and found an article writin (spelling???) by an owner. Says top speed is 70 mph give or take depending how its loaded. Also said the metal boxes are not water proof. David
pegscraper Posted April 3, 2009 #7 Posted April 3, 2009 Is that the bike Barney is riding here? I've always wondered what this was. It looks similar. BTW, this is one of my favorite episodes.
Monty Posted April 3, 2009 #8 Posted April 3, 2009 Check out this one. It's for sale. http://www.sgcustomcycles.com/enfield.htm I am riding down there tonight, and will be there all day tomorrow. Sam owns more bikes than anyone I know. Check out the videos on the site.
