A Brief History of the Marque

In the early 1890s Albert Eadie and R.W Smith bought the bicycle business of George Townsend near Redditch to form the Eadie Manufacturing Company. By 1897 the company was titled Enfield Cycle Co.Ltd and had moved to Redditch and by 1899 they were producing a De Dion powered tricycle, with Motosacoche v-twins among the product by 1910. During the veteran years they also utilised Minerva engines, and later JAP. The company ceased manufacturing in 1970 (or possibly 1964, see this post).

Assembly of R.E. Bullets began in India in 1955 from parts sources from Britain, and by 1962 the bikes were being manufactured by Enfield of India, which purchased the rights to the Royal Enfield name in 1995 and is now known as Royal Enfield of India.

RE HS31, 570cc SV with unknown sidecar
Hi Guys,
aquired it a couple of years ago. Never saw that model anywhere else. Has anybody an idea where I can find a reference object, specially regarding paintwork?
Assume the sidecar is a Praga (CZ). Can anybody confirm?
Cheers from Germany, Olaf

  • There are a couple of images in the Praga gallery which are certainly very similar in body shape and chassis.

Royal Enfield probably 1937
Legend has it that the enclosed picture of my father was taken on his 21st birthday September 1937. My brother, who has a number of motor bikes and is the family oracle on all things "bike" tells me that my father's bike has a sloper engine, single cylinder twin port ? 500ccs or above. Could you tell us the year of manufacture and type. Is it possible for us to access the original registration information and any web sites we can access for further information? Apologies for a bit of a rambling request, we would be grateful for any help you can provide.
David Coombes
Kinross-shire Scotland

  • Registration number LJ4460. Most likely a Model J Bullet 1931-1936. By 1937 they appear to have dropped the Sloper model.

1965 Royal Enfield Crusader
I recently purchased a rear mud guard for a 1965 Royal Enfield Crusader. It had a sticker on it from Alldays and Onions and I am wondering if they had anything to do with the Royal Enfield brand. I am now looking for a front mudguard for the same bike and was wondering if they have these guards available.

  • "1907 The company merged with Alldays and Onions". Doubt that a '65 model would still have an Alldays sticker. See Royal Enfield History.

Hi, thought you might be interested in some of the content on my website with regard to a 1912 RE prototype I've recently bought. This is the forerunner to the 3hp twin, and almost, but not quite a Brooklands racer (see site for more info): www.vinvetmotorcycle.simplesite.com
Might give you a bit more info for your Enfield timeline.

Carb Royal Enfield 350cc
Hi I have just purchased a 350cc Royal Enfield 1954. It has an alloy head but I am not sure of the exact model. I would be grateful if you could advise me of the correct carb/jets and spark plug. It is fitted with an amal monobloc at present but I am not sure if it is correct or not. I can get it to run all be it roughly and it does not take the revs. If you turn the petrol off it bursts into life and runs ok just before running out of petrol. Thanks.

scammer
Royal Enfield G
As I am working on a 1956 Puch allsate 175 and a 1939 Royal Enfield G and a couple others, I am on your site often, trying to identify bikes. as parts are scarce in Western canada, I resorted to a wanted ad and as expected, I was scammed despite ignoring all but one of the many replies and as luck and the tway Murphy would have it, I chose a scammer. He did not actually have any parts and in fact stole a pic from the internet and misrepresented it as his. His name is Randy Baer (maybe in Manchester area of the UK or even in Nigeria - both are hot spots for scammers) and his email address is ran.baer.salesinc at gmail.com and he is NOT for real - he is a scammer. I am out 130 GBP and do have the EPS involved but he will scam again. Could you post a note on your site somewhere to make it tougher for this loser to take money from us real motorcycle enthusiasts. I have owned literally several hundred bikes in my day and the thought of this clown scamming motorcycle enthusiasts is offensive. This is the pic he sent me stating that is what it looked like before he dismantled it to redo and never re-assembled. (image not posted)

Looking for information
Royal Enfield S
Dear Sir Madam, I have owned this Royal Enfield for 20+ years where it has been garaged basically ever since, my wife and I purchased it with the intent that one day it may be worth something, but I cant seem to get any sort of help here in Australia, after speaking with different so called experts we seem to get a different response every time. Now after browsing your web site it appears to be identical to the 1936J however our bike has a flaired bottom front guard and it also has grab handles and a package rack on the rear guard, the engine number is S1 3279 and the number stamped on the gear box is 332.

I thank you for your time and hope to hear from you in the near future, once again thank you.

needed information or pictures detailing the tank colours and pin stipe layouts

.....
Unfortunately the only images that I have are in black and white The tank of the bike is rectangular tapering at the bar end it also has a tank shift

Due to the death of my father who rebuilt the bike from what can only be described as a basket case some 25+ years ago and my memories of this being the contents of 3 tea chests 2 wheels and frame all information being gleaned from only knows where? The only other lasting thing was the fact that on a vintage vehicle run my father being chastised as to the colour and pin strips of the tank being wrong way round or colours being wrong (this coming from a gentleman of late years who may have worked on the production line ???? )

As a lasting memoir to my father I now would like to rebuild the bike back
to its former glory

All information would be of help

Vendor's Description:
The bike now just needs the timing set up to enable it to run, but I have bought a new bike, as well as one for my Wife, & I really don't want to spend any more time on the Enfield. The bike hasn't been started since its' overhaul. It has the original Royal Enfield aluminium centre stand which has worn unevenly on both feet as can be seen in one of the pictures. A new old stock centre stand and fittings is included in the sale. The electrics work perfectly.

As you can see from the pictures, the bike is in good condition and it has a V5 registration document and an age related certificate from the Royal Enfield Owners Club authenticating the bikes' age and date of first registration, but no MOT or VEL. It will need new fork seals for its' next MOT.

Included in the sale are the workshop manual, owners manual & service handbook shown in the photos.

Well, it said you wanted to know more about Royal Enfield Bullet's! I've been the proud owner of a 2001 RE Bullet 500 Deluxe for about a year now that I bought used. She is a fun bike to ride, but it takes love and dedication to keep her going. Unlike the modern bikes of today that require very little involvement of the rider in maintaining them, and basically have the personality of a microwave oven, these old girls require some attention on occasion. You get to know her, it is a bonding thing!

If you love attention, buy one. I've gone crazy with the retro thing with my baby, she is absolutely beautiful. As for performance, if you only putt around town they are perfect stock (except for exhaust, you got to get her to thump loud). But I ride a lot on the road, and I did some performance modifications and raised the gearing up. Bumping her up from 6.5 to 9.0 to 1 compression, stainless steel valves & heavy springs, free flow exhaust, modified airbox, recalibrated carburetor, hi-flow oil pumps, electronic ignition,18 tooth countershaft sprocket, heavy clutch springs, and shift kit.

This really brought her to life, she cruses all day at 60 to 62 with power to spair.

This is a great bike, I've been riding 37 years, and I think this the funnest bike I've ever owned. Ya'll take care, and ride safe! D.B. the crazy biker Owen. -- owen28248 at hotmaildot com

Hi,
I hope you guys are still active. I am a biker from North-east India and a freelance journalist by profession. I ride an Enfield and have ridden all over India and across the Himalayas. I hope to ride in Russia next year-from Vladivostok to St. Petersburg. -- Ravi Deka -- deka at cal3.vsnl.net.in
