A Royal Enfield forum for the people

[Tim]

I need a shop bike that I can test fitment of new accessories on. As most of you know we can't just take the supplier's word. "It Fits " has several different meanings depending on which part of the world you are from.

A rolling chassis would do. I am going to focus on the 5 series platform for now. First because they are the most common, and second because they are the model most recently forgotten about.

I briefly looked into acquiring one from the domestic market, but that went nowhere. If you happen to frequent auction sites and find a wreck that might work for me please let me know.

I have the '09 that Kevin said "ran when I parked it. It's ugly but all there, I think.

Vegas Dan basically donated a shop bike to the cause, what a stand-up guy! Thanks to Dan WCS will really be able to step up the custom parts selection. The Royal Enfield community will be benefiting from Dan's generosity for years to come.

Thanks Dan "from Vegas"!

It's rough but mostly there. The battery and cover are missing. Cases are corroded.
