The Brit bikes have a panache that is wonderful to look at and ride, but I would not want to own another. As much as I liked my BSA it was hard to maintain and find parts and wrenches and service for. It also broke a primary chain on me riding home from work, and did about $1,000 of damage to itself in a fraction of a second. It took about 6 months to get the parts and the repairs done. I sold it with joy in my heart once it was back and running better than ever.

The Royal Enfield is the perfect solution for me. ALL the class, pleasure, feel, panache and history of other Brit bikes, but with modern fuel injection, electronic ignition, unit construction, disc brake, and 5 speed and a 3 year warranty to make it a great daily rider.
