Royal Enfield The Postwar Models (Hardcover)

Product Description

Royal Enfield: The Post-war Models – 125, 150, 250, 350, 500, 700, 750 Singles and Twins by Johnnie Brittain and Roy Bacon

Today the Enfield has a large and strong enthusiast following, a reflection perhaps of that special position the bikes had during the 1950s and 1960s. Postwar the bikes sold readily throughout the world, principally because they could offer a large range, from 125 pop-pop to the lusty 500 or larger twin, which could be tailored to special ordering. The fact that the 1955 350 Bullet is still made in India today illustrates the point. The company should never have ceased manufacture for they were often enterprising enough to maintain their market, showing off their versatility with their many models. All the postwar REs are here analysed as never before with a multitude of photographs (most of which previously unseen) and a long but easy-to-read specification section designed for the collector, restorer or just the avid British motorcycle lover.
