A buddy has had one for several years. On his third tank. Instrument panel keeps shorting out in the rain, has added an aftermarket can that gave him some much needed hp but everyone says don't ride behind him. He loves it, warts and all.
But he needs an every day rider (Honda) as he can't rely on it.
That said, he rode it to Datil New Mexico for the Guzzi rally with no issues (buddies that rode with him could not say the same - well, in the gully washer he rode through he lost his speedo again). So we got him a t-shirt that read The Mighty Enfield! with a nice Royal Enfield bike pic on it. zazzle.com, great place for good custom t-shirts.
Gotta say, it's a proper looking bike.
