As pretty as these bikes are, and are they ever pretty… I want to see if it’s basically a slower version of my Bonneville. Which wouldn’t be a bad thing. My Bonnie is the one bike I’ve kept over the years and has the most miles, because it’s pretty and comfortable. It’s also as reliable as a hammer and has asked for nothing but a few pairs of tires.
An Enfield would need to replace the CB300R in the fleet, because I’m not selling the Bonnie or the 1100. Which means there would have to be the potential for Mrs. G to be able to learn on an INT650 while also becoming part of my commuting fleet. Doable from what the internet says.
There’s a RE dealer nearby, and like my other bikes, it would never see a rainy day. But, would it have the reliability of a Honda or a Triumph? Maybe. But, I’m getting ahead of myself before I’ve even swung a leg over one.
