Diesel-Engined Royal Enfield Bullet

Tags: links inline

"One such extreme solution to ever increasing petrol prices or sudden fuel shortages is the motorcycle owned by seasoned London commuter, David Wareham. David's new motorcycle is a variant of the famous and much loved Royal Enfield Bullet.

I won't go into all the history of the marque and detail how this fifty year old motorcycle design is bizarrely still being produced today in India as a cheap and cheerful form of family transport and also exported worldwide as 'an old classic but built yesterday' choice for many silver-haired riders."

There's a post on this page that mentions swapping out the engine on a Royal Enfield motorcycle for a 11-HP Hatz diesel engine.
