    I found this little gem of a movie about the love for the humble Royal Enfield Bullet among bikers in India

    I have a soft spot for them myself, having ridden one around India for three months in my distant youth

    I found them to be reliable, fun to ride & a wealth of spares to be had when I rode one around India

    For some reason everyone over there seems to be an Enfield expert, any issues I had, there was always someone willing to give me a dig out & muck in

    I did Nepal on a 350 Bullet and have a similar affinity with them. There's something just so characterful about them. I haven't been to India but I plan on doing so and I'd love another Bullet to be a central part. For now, I regularly have a perve on Done Deal. I'd love to restore one- it would be a piece of piddle. It will be mine, oh yes, it will be mine...

    The new Continental GT café racer is a lovely looking beasty

    I particularly have a fondness for the Classic 500 though, would be a great foundation for a traditional bobber
