Well Keith, yeah, it was a "fun little ride" I had on it, alright.(how's THAT for a lefthanded compliment, eh?!)
And the sound was just okay, as it was a bone stock demo I test rode from South Bay Triumph(and now South Bay Triumph/Norton/Royal Enfield, actually) just a few days before Judie and I moved to Prescott for good last week.
(but no, it sure didn't sound or ride near as well as say a Velocette Thruxton or a BSA Gold Star...but then again those bikes were REALLY british sporting singles...emphasis on the word "sporting" there, of course...the RE is more a "putt-putt" machine)
