The Chump - Royal Enfield 500 Hardtail / Girder forks




After almost 2 years the hardtail experiment is running - Called it the Chump 'cause that's what I feel like for even attempting the project. Built in India and shipped here 90% complete after the builder gave up and threw it in a crate (sans various bits including extra tanks). Better than nothing, and boy is it loud ! (muffler to be fitted shortly).

Smallsun Royal Enfield Shipment 2 almost complete...


A mere 16 months after my first Royal Enfield Custom shipment (Cafe model above) I've almost got the girder fork / hard tail model ready to ship. Many hiccups along the way, but it's starting to take shape. Along with this there's a couple of custom tanks for CB350K1's (racing), a cafe tank for an XJ900 and a few boxes of Enfield parts. Let me know if you want a bike or parts made for the 3rd shipment !
Stay tuned for the launch of the website proper now we've ironed out the bugs....

Smallsun Royal Enfield - Online store coming soon !

After years of research & restoration I've finally landed my first Enfield shipment. These bikes are completely restored, new Alloy 500cc heads, 4 or 5 speed gearbox and options galore. Prices are very reasonable (thanks to the strong AUD$), and the website should be up and running next week. Here are a few pics from the first photo shoot:





Please let me know what you think ! Planning a rigid frame model for the next shipment...

McDeeb Italy - Retro Japanese & English Scramblers

Have admired McDeeb's wonderful Enfield conversions before, but didn't realise he had a soft spot for Kawasaki W400's as well - check out these wonderful restorations (and one of his Enfields). His websites have a great selection of vintage European stuff as well.
here are the links: http://mcdeeb.it/index.aspx




Yes, that's a Z 750 scrambler ! nice......
One of several stylish Royal Enfield conversions.

Royal Enfield Super Bullet 500 Scrambler



This work of art is from a Netherlands Museum I think - you can see more high quality photographs of vintage racing bikes (and dramatic Nordic landscapes) at Hans Viveen's Flikr site:
