My Google+ buddy +Jim Bocko in Texas and lovely wife Juanetta were in Lubbock, Texas the other day test riding a bunch of bikes, including a Royal Enfield. He sent a photo of the bike and I was impressed by the windscreen, a very simple affair attached to the handlebars and front light.
I'm now itching for a windscreen like that one to fit onto my Bullet Electra (2011), which is similar to but slightly different from this Classic that Jim's on. Any ideas about where to purchase one?
I'm a Yank in Spain running a different kind of bull: La Balita Roja, my trusty 2011 Royal Enfield 500 cc Electra, and now also a 1986 BMW K75C that was later tweaked into a K75RT for distance touring. Spain has thousands of miles of fantastic byways for bikers. The food and wines aren't bad, either. So here are roads I've taken, tapas, Spanish wines, food, bikes and bikers I've had the pleasure of meeting along the way. -John (a.k.a. Jónico)
I have a W800, with the same Givi sidecases and a windscreen like that, second-hand. Info: http://nationalcycle.com/catalogue/Classic.shtml
ReplyDeleteHello Mr Nelson,
ReplyDeleteJust joined your blog here.
Nice photo of a gentleman, the windscreen is cool,
used to be factory fitted as one of the original styling features of Machismo 500 LB with saddle bags on both sides.
Available in India(Delhi & Chennai), many of the Bullet lovers get it on their bikes (sometime they put iconic Royal Enfield 'Made Like A Gun' badge or sticker on it).
Will share you some picts. & weblink soon.
Warm Regards,
Thanks for the info. I wonder whether they can be purchased and shipped abroad?
