Suffering from years of neglect in the American market, the Royal Enfield name has become tarnished by questionable reliability, build quality, and a lack of dealer support. But the current executive team convinced me they are serious about change. They didn’t try to avoid these issues when I brought them up. Instead, they met them head on, presenting me with a picture of a brand in transition. The company is acknowledging its shortcomings and striving to find solutions that will help solidify Royal Enfield as more than a bit player in the American motorcycle market.
But how did Royal Enfield get so far gone?
Probably a reason they pretty much don't exist in the United States anymore. Not a lot of market for miserable junk that can't get out of its own way and blows up constantly due to 1960s technology.
Good luck with that, though. Reading rest of the above, they're trying to turn it around, past couple years...
If you like to wrench on your bikes it’s an intriguing proposition. Not for me though. I buy motorcycles strictly to ride them....so no Enfields or Ducatis for me.

Yeah, they're pretty old school tech, so I would think they wouldn't be too hard to keep on the road. I thought about getting one a while back, but the prices were pretty crazy for something like that.
Enfield is a good looking bike but i would question its reliability,better options are available.
FIY there's a dealer in El Paso with 100s of them ready to go. They said the 650s are selling sight unseen. MOTO ELPASO
