Enfield's profilation of this bike |
In the 77th year since its first production, Royal Enfield presents the marque motorcycle in its ´Classic´ form. Donning a younger look resplendent with styling cues one would expect only from a genuine Royal Enfield: single cylinder air-cooled pushrod engine, 1950s style nacelle and toolboxes, traditional paint scheme and buffed engine components. |
