A 3-4 minute clip of the Royal Enfield in film "Åsa-Nisse på hal is" (1954) It's Swedish, so might sound a little unexpected, plus the background music sounds like it was played on a hand cranked phonograph, being operated by a monkey on something illegal.
Nice shot of the RE though. er, is it a bullet?

Have a look at about 2:07 and pause if necessary, that's definitely a Bullet. A.

350 Bullet, about 1952. Lightly modified, stone guard on headlight, rear number plates removed and perhaps a different silencer or pipe, it's neither the high level Trials type, the up kicked standard pipe or the later low level so it could be a Scrambles pipe with a silencer. Sweden was a big market for RE at the time so it's possible the importer had them delivered in different trim or modified them. REgards, Mark

If you ever watch the Film 'The Knack' the main character rides off on an Ariel Arrow which sounds like a Bonneville! In 'Viva Knivel' the bike engine revs up in time with the throttle being closed!! just bad dubbing.

No sound effects needed. (I would love to rock up at a motorcycle rally with this)
