As its second owner, I've babied this bike: garage-kept, gently ridden, and treated with the reverence it deserves as a tribute to Johnny Brittain and the Royal Enfield Factory team’s legendary success in the International Six Days Trials.

Some highlights according to the manufacturer:
* A raised, steel-braced handlebar makes you feel like you know what you're doing, standing or sitting
* Block-tread tires and dual-channel ABS, because grip matters and so does stopping
* An up-swept exhaust built for deep water crossings and mild acts of defiance
* A rear rack for whatever you need on the road less travelled
* Purpose-built mudguards to get through the slush and a fork brace so the ride stays steady
Some highlights according to me:
* To ride this bike is to feel a machine being a machine–akin to the pleasures of an old-fashioned mechanical typewriter
* A comfortable joy to ride: guaranteed bugs in your teeth from that big stupid grin on your face
* Feeling especially bad ass or had a bad day? Use the kick start instead of the electric start
More Details
* Has had annual oil changes; comes with oil and a spare oil filter
* Minor scratch on left side cover (see image)
* Clean title, two keys, original tool kit
* Includes owner’s manual and two service manuals
Owning this bike has been a privilege. I'm only letting go because sometimes knee surgery can be rough.
Serious inquiries only — this one deserves a good home with someone who will care for it. Test drive with money in hand (mine) and motorcycle-endorsed license.
