Royal Enfield motorcycles now in Cambodia

Have a car, truck, motorcycle, or bicycle you'd like to sell? List it here for free. Heck, you can even buy and sell tuktuks or your pink Scoopy here. Remember, you need a driver's license in Cambodia for cars, trucks, and any motorbike that's over 125cc. And always wear a helmet!

Not sure you can compare the weight of a sport bike vs a cruiser. My (small, not compensating! :D) Harley weighs in at 260kg wet and only pulls out around 51 bhp to shift that pile of iron.

Back to the Enfield, and many modern cruisers - I really dislike the exhaust systems. Giant upward sloped chrome microphone-esque looks just don't work for me on cruisers; spoils an otherwise decent looking bike. Give me a set of V&H after market pipes any day of the week. Only recent exception I can think of is the Harley Breakout stock pipes. But then if we all liked the same thing, we'd soon run out of steak - so maybe that's not a bad thing! #Moo

Yeah true!

I really like the Enfield. Dad had a really old one years ago and was forever fixing it and got rid and got a Japanese Honda, “Bloody English piece of crap. Why can’t they build them like this” slapping the tank of his CB750!

I dislike cafe racers (and modern classics like the GB, which is why they were never popular in the UK) and especially ones that have been created from perfectly good classics. Saw a CB750 cafe on Ballsack. Nearly cried. Same colour as my dads one. Travesty!

From what I've read of the 500 its luck of the draw what crankshaft you get in your bike from new. On my classic 500 I think it is the smoothest big single I've ridden and I've owned quite a few singles over the years. Then again I'm hardly riding fast on Khmai roads compared to back in Oz.

Keeping on the subject of the British motorcycle -

Brough Superior To Begin Deliveries Of The AMB 001 – 180HP, RM558k

According to reports, Brough Superior has begun deliveries of the unique AMB 001 motorcycle.

First revealed at the EICMA show in Milan back in November 2019, many – including esteemed publications – suggest that it is too beautiful and radical to make it to the production stage.
