A good set of detailed images of some wonderful machines. The BI quartet don't look too bad either.
The Kawasaki's were horendous machines to ride. Royal Enfield image takes top image for me.
Best regards

Ha, You are right, I remember reading a report about the Kawa 500 2-stroke that suggested that there was so much power that the frame woud flex under acceleration, and even bend in the corners. Of course that made us all want one !!!The Kawasaki's were horendous machines to ride. Royal Enfield image takes top image for me.
I would love to take that original 750 out along the M9 from Edinburgh, I could probably make Perth before the cops caught me, it would be worth the points
p.s. and the smell of Castrol R would bring back a lot of memories

That 85 really is good

Nice shots and nice bikes! The blue Kwaka.is my favourite, if you could get rid of that MCN sign it would be even better. I have rented Enfields in India a few times, they are still making them. They don't handle or stop very well but the engine sound makes up for it
