2004 Royal Enfield Bullet 500es Military on 2040-motos

Royal Enfield Bullet 500 ES description

2004 Royal Enfield Bullet 500ES. But everyone will think it's a 1955 bike. Actually most people will think it's an old Harley, because that's the only motorcycle they know.

This bike has plenty of upgrades: shorty exhaust (carb re-jetted), high-flow oil pump, solo seat with pillion, bullet turn signals, retro mirror, duckbill breather, pedestrian slicer, etc.
It has electric start, but I usually kick it for the full experience. Runs great, no problems other than being a 1950's British design means that you will have to enjoy turning a wrench (points, timing, etc), and it will leave it's mark. Case is tight, but it will wet sump if you don't set it to TDC when you put it away (and sometimes even if you do).
It is a blast to ride, handles great, and each thump of the one-lung shoves you down the road a couple of feet. Tops out at about 60 (hauling my 215# around).
This is not a highway bike.
This is not for someone who wants to go fast.
This is not for someone who doesn't want to turn a wrench. This is for someone who wants to experience motorcycling

This year model is in the most desirable range (IMHO), as it's after the lower quality initial 1990's bikes, when the factory upgraded some of the manufacturing to CNC, but it's one of the last of the "iron head" bikes, before the factory switched to alloy heads and fuel injection, which takes away from the vintage Brit bike flavor (again, IMHO).

Includes service manual, workshop manual, owner's manual, and service video.
