It's like these wankers that use L8R, 2MORROW, PH@T and all these other

He should have a demo. Moto Ciclio in Sydney definitely has a demo,

Yeah but the Electra engine is a modern engine. I'd much rather the Classic

Was just looking that the RoyalEnfield site as well as Eurobrit (in
Melbourne). May be worth a visit, IF I ever get some time off work.
