Gettin' More Outa Ya Bullet: Not sure stage grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Mission Statement

This blog has been set up as a record of my attempt to build a cool Bobber style bike out of the Royal Enfield Bullet. With the cost of genuine early British and American bikes and parts spiralling upwards in the face of the current global economic climate, building a retro style custom is rapidly becoming cost prohibitive. Initially, there will be a period of accruing parts and information as the bike I intend to re-create is my daily rider.

I have heard so many horror stories about the Indian made Bullet from people who's mate used to have one, that I have lost count. All I can say is that I have covered over 20,000 miles on mine in the last three and a half years, and feel happy that it is quite capable of doing another 20.

So if you like the idea or just curious, you are welcome to come along for the ride.

Not sure stage grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

after a few hours i got the rear mudguard on and i don't like it,but going to leave it while see what its like with a few more bits on.

I was going to have 2 stays as per normal to steady it,but,made these cheeky little stays and the guard is solid,they mite blend in when i get the seat on and give the guard a floating look?

Handle bars arrived today,Vincents,now i need my speedo bang in the middle alar Vincent,trouble is the bars look so good i need a new throttle and levers!!!!
