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...

Suzuki Tempter 400 -Modern Drum Brakes anyone ?





An unusual and somewhat overlooked custom base, the Tempter 400 came out during the retro crazy mid naughties. Nowhere near as popular as the Yamaha SR range, It is quite unique and interesting. The drum brakes were perhaps taking retro a bit far, maybe ?
