oh ok. i didn't heard this name.

so today i saw this bike any guesses ? on the tank it was written enfield. just enfield.

i think it would be a diesel enfield.

its nice one but enfield diesel would have more noice and vibration.
so heavy in weight

I have seen this bike, I guess it was launched somewhere in mid 90's. It has sound like diesel engine which used for irrigation.

I am sure I can walk faster than that bike.
Allhyundai, turbo bikes? hmm they need to come up with that.

 

[allhyundaicars]

worst thing that can happen while riding clutch wire going kaput



but i'm glad that this time it happened just 200 meters from my home

 

[allhyundaicars]

had to go to karol bagh for the clutch wire the service center near my home didn't have and asked me to go to karol bagh.

wire costed me 94 rupees and had to give 80 rupees to a local mechanic , he came home and fixed the bike.

i didn't know about the bike. i was born in the 90s

 

[Theferrarifan]

The roadking was a bike that came out in the late 70s by java in india. It has a lot of racing heritage and it was based on a race winning chassis but with a detuned engine. The bike also won many races in india.
And I am younger than you allhyundai :P
Is the TB a reliable machine BTW?

 

[allhyundaicars]

you know a lot about the bike
Yeah it's reliable but if something happens to the bike, then no local mechanic will touch it. They will say " can't/won't fix the bike.
I don't know if i mentioned this before, that day also clutch wire got damaged. 4 local mechanics directly said no. Then 1 agreed but he was 400 meters away i had to drag the bike there.
And parts are not easily available, i tried 4 clutch wires from a local shop having bullet spares but no wire worked, in the end mechanic did a jugaar and fixed the old wire.
