1973 Yamaha TX500 (1973)
1973 Yamaha TX500. Rare bike. It was Yamaha's first 4 valve per cylinder Motorcycle. Has a balance shaft as well, so it is very smooth. Twin CV carbs, Front Disk with dual piston caliper. Electric and kick start. In its day, it was very expensive, which was a problem for Yamaha, as the RD350 was almost as powerful, but much cheaper. I was just at Mid Ohio, and this was the only one there this year, which should give you an idea as to its rarity. After all, there were two NSU's there.... I got this bike from a friend, who had it in his garage for years, but hadn't run since the early 1980's. He lost the key, which was on an "ET" keychain. I fixed up the bike as follows: Removed the old period accessories that were nasty, and found the proper replacement parts, i.e., grab rail, rear turn signals, gas cap New tubes and tires Rebuilt front caliper and installed new brake disc pads Rebuilt master cylinder Obtained two new keys Rebuilt carbs, all new gaskets and jets Rebuilt petcocks, including new petcock to gas tank gaskets Cleaned gas tank New Plugs New Battery Unifilter foam wrapped around the original air filter core (the paper was solid, crusty and old, NOS is hard to find, so this is the way to go).2016-07-12 04:54:15Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, United States221900

2025 Royal Enfield Classic 650 Review - First Ride
Wed, 13 Nov 2024Royal Enfield leans heavily into its British heritage for this modern take on classic styling I'm standing outside a pub in the cool of English autumn - a pint of hand-pulled ale in one hand, paper-wrapped fish and chips in the other. Beside me, a factory engineer draws casually from a hand-rolled cigarette and we cheerfully discuss the classic British motorcycle parked in front of us. This whole thing is an English nationalist's fever dream.

2025 Royal Enfield Bear 650 Review – First Ride
Tue, 05 Nov 2024A highly customizable scrambler with ’60s style On a frigid January morning in 1960, a teenage rookie lined up with another 764 riders on the start line of The Big Bear Run, the maddest, baddest point-to-point desert race on the calendar. At just 16 years old, Eddie Moulder etched his name in motorcycle history that day, riding his 500cc Royal Enfield to victory. He was one of just 207 finishers and crossed the line with a bent handlebar and one less rear shock than he started with.

2025 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Review – First Ride
Tue, 30 Jul 2024RE adds to its modern lineup Photos by Motocom Rolling out of the underground parking garage where a DJ had seen us off by kickin’ the jams, we were greeted by the warm hug of Barcelona’s summer weather as the orange morning light splayed across the beautiful Catalan capital. Admittedly, traffic was light, so squirting through the city streets on our way to the surrounding hills was a breeze, making it even more so, was Royal Enfield’s latest addition to its lineup: the Guerrilla 450. Somewhat of a street scrambler-style motorcycle, the Guerrilla 450 shares many similarities with the Himalayan that was developed alongside it.

2024 Royal Enfield Himalayan Review – First Ride
Tue, 23 Jul 2024The Himalayan continues to trailblaze for Royal Enfield Photos by Royal Enfield “Capable but not intimidating; that has been the ethos of the Himalayan from the start,” according to Royal Enfield. I think we can all agree, that pretty well sums up the simple, retro adventure bike from the Indian brand. Has the massive overhaul the Himalayan received changed this character?
2024 Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 Review – Second Ride
Wed, 27 Mar 2024A mid-size cruiser with a steadfast engine and elevated technology upgrades Photos by Royal Enfield Taking a giant leap into creating a motorcycle platform with customization in mind, the Shotgun 650 is, at its heart, the quintessential mid-sized cruiser, wrapped in sleek and simple bobber style cladding, and adorned with the latest technology upgrades. Standing squarely in the present, the Shotgun 650 takes the time tested Royal Enfield 650 twin-cylinder engine and provides it with the sleek shape and style of a completely modern cruiser. While standard bikes are the lifeblood of this brand, the cruiser-esque Shotgun 650 stands out in the lineup as a breath of fresh air to the retro-styled Royal Enfields of the previous decades.
2024 Royal Enfield Shotgun 650 Review – First Ride
Mon, 15 Jan 2024Born of creative chaos Photos by Royal Enfield Motorcycles In the past six years since Royal Enfield launched its first 650cc twin-cylinder bikes of the modern era in the 2018 model year, the well-developed, well-built and well-priced Interceptor and Continental GT have catapulted the Indian manufacturer into a leading role in the global middleweight motorcycle market. These two debut models were joined a year ago by the Super Meteor, the first of what was billed as a series of Custom versions on the same twin-cylinder platform. This has, if anything, been even more of a global hit than its two predecessors, despite holdups in supplies to various markets of these, the three most costly and most powerful models in Royal Enfield’s range, which its CEO Siddhartha Lal says he expected at the outset would have greatest appeal to export customers.
2024 Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 Review – First Ride
Fri, 20 Oct 2023An Indian take on a uniquely American form of motorcycling Photos: 360Media One week ago I was racing motorcycles around Barber Motorsports Park, pushing my limits and going around in circles at triple digit speeds. After an adrenaline-filled week, I found myself in Dallas, Texas slowing down the pace and riding a cruiser. As the token sportbike guy, I actually appreciate a bit of balance in my life, which is exactly why I get the itch to ride cruisers every so often.
