Title: Lets welcome Leoson to RR
Post by: Leoson on May 03, 2014, 07:01:46 AM

I was surfing sites, and found the pictures and repair story of my bike on your site!!!

I bought my first Enfield in 1971 in Bangalore, and rode it all over south India. about 200,000 kms by 1990. Then came to USA. In 2009, bought a 500 cc Enfield here, and in 2010 I was in Bangalore getting my Old Faithful restored.

I ride my bikes to work everyday here in California. People looked at Enfields with admiration in India, and they look at them with admiration here!

Thanks Mohsin.
More details of the story here:

I sent some pictures to David Blasco, moderator of the blog. He asked if he could post it on his blog, and did.
I was in Bangalore last December, and went crazy buying spare parts for both my Enfields.

Last week went on a ride organized by Vincent Owners Club. It was fun.

You guys ride safe!!
