Bhaji looks great! I think the pushrod cover adds to the Indian flavour by the way it says "ROYALS ENFIELDS"



Again, well done for sharing this with us, and how great to import and register your own Bullet! I reckon there won't be another quite like it in the UK.

Thanks PeteF - I have seen a cork under gasket in the fuel cap under the nitrile ring. Has anyone else tried that?

Scalyback, my (jesting) response is that at least 6 more of these very same bikes exist on ebay and other forums, as attested by the membership here. This time, I am winding everyone up. I digress. It is of course very unique.....now what about my mid range fluffing?

Obvious... TOWIE. Should have thought of that!

Hi Essex Lad,
What part of Essex r u from? I live in Canewdon near Southend. Im guessing your somewhere local to Southend by your mention of john parker motorcycles. Some tips on places to ride out to, try the shepherd and dog pub on Saturday mornings very friendly bunch and always willing to chat about bikes, beer and other important matters. Have to say I have visited battlesbridge on 2 occasions and met with a very snotty reception both times apparently the bullet wasn't classic enough, wont be going again !Maybe I will c u about I have a military 500 enfield. All the best with your new purchase and if your up for a ride out let me know.
Regards, Chris

Hi Spence, wouldn't be much of a ride out to the Shepherd & Dog, I live less than a mile away. I know about the meeting there, I was there for a pint with Mrs Essex Bird about a month ago on Bhaji.
I don't really get on with the purist clubs, having been subject to their snobbery over the years. Best club ever was the Reliant Scimitar owners, they loved whatever you turned up in. Although I am a member of the REOC I haven't done anythin with them yet.
If you go to Battlesbridge museum and look at the ceiling, I donated the 8ft x 6ft picture of the 1950's RAC repair and an AJS.
Anyway, what do you know about mid range fluff?

[Essex Lad]

Actually if you ring 479 you will get me - down on Anchor Lane

I can confirm that the group at the Shepherd and Dog are a friendly bunch. I went there for the first time a few weeks back but unfortunately I couldn't stay long.
Mid range fluff - carburation, possibly partially blocked jets.
