Its a great move by them. Just that the engine looks ugly. But there are some good things too:
- The ugly rear frame that holds the mudguard and seat is changed.
- The rear brake is mounted on the right side of the wheel. This is good, since it should make braking better. I've ridden quite a lot of Machismo's and Thunderbird's and they have their brake pedal on the right, but the brake itself is mounted on the left. This makes braking pathetic! And you literally have to stand on the pedal for it to be effective!
@madbullram: Probably thats why you mean that the bike sways to the right. Apart from this, I see no reason why the bike should behave like that.
- Thats a very weird kick lever. But maybe they did that to give more clearance for the leg.
The thing is that first most of us complain that Enfield doesn't do anything to improve quality, performance and technology. And when they do, everyone suddenly starts opposing.
