Took the 2006 500 Classic out yesterday following a minor gearbox rebuild to replace a footchange spring (again). 'Twas only a run into work, but in half term week (no traffic!!) and lovely mold weather. Bike had that beautiful loose acceleration that only big singles provide, started first kick, idled like a steam single. Lovely exhaust noise. Perfect...all was well and it gave that superb feeling that only an Enfield can give...bliss.CheersTimG

Nice one Tim. Come on all you others, it must be spring, I found frog spawn on the pond this morning.

Spring? It can't be, it snowed here today!
I went out last weekend - a couple of hours ride meant a couple of hours cleaning, so maybe not quite spring north of the border yet.
Bike is all shiny again though....waiting for a nice day.

Tim.
How right you are.
I'll be taxing the 612 next week so that I can get her on the road again.
Shame that I have to sell her but I have a new project that I need the space for.
