Happy new year to you Stuart, looking forward to more videos over 2019
Happy New Year to you Stuart. Best wishes to you and your family, and have a safe ride 🏍🏍🏍🎅🎅🎅
Same to you Greg!
Happy New Year Stu , and thanks for getting this info out , I don't own a Bullet but know a few who do , video shared .
Thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention. I purchased one of these when I saw it here. Love my 2017 Classic 500.
Welcome back Stuart and Happy New Year. I've always like the Royal Enfield Continental GT. As far as the Interceptor...imo it's gonna be a game changer for Royal Enfield! I would love an Interceptor as a stable mate for my T100!
Happy New Year! I'm looking forward to the Interceptor first impressions and possibly a long term review from you haha!
It is so tempting!
Happy new year. As always exceptional, thank you .
Regards Gareth Wiltshire.
Thank you Gareth!
Happy New year mate.
I'm the same! I really love the Royal Enfield I've got my eye on the Pegasus. A very cool looking bike in this world of technology it just has the cool factor.
Hi Phil yeah its just one of those bikes that stirs something in your soul! I cant remember how many times ive almost bought one and then ended up with something else!
Hi Stuart, l had a 2001 Bullet and regreted selling it, despite all its "character". Lovely sedate chugers. The new twins look gorgeous though. Happy New year
a great video stuart, i am a triumph rider but also have a very soft spot for the enfield! Keep up the great vids mate!
Yes theres something about the Bullet for sure!
Didn't know you did your vlogs in 4K I will in future watch them on my other laptop. Keep up your good work.
Ive been shooting in 4k for over a year Stephen but only uploading in 1080p up until mid November!
I look forward to you test riding the interceptor as I seriously thinking about buying one.
I'm looking forward to the first impression video on that interceptor.
Welcome to test ride my 500 Trials, need to meet half way between Hull and Colchester though!
C5 owner here, it's a fun bike to ride. Just ordered this manual too.
Thanks for watching Rich!
Librarians everywhere are crying out..you monster..for flattening the pages at the binding lol
It's worth mentioning, Haynes customer service has always been extremely helpful to me. That's my experience and I wanted to mention it. The Royal never really appealed to me personally but nice video as always Stuart! Thanks for sharing
Also have always had a soft spot for the RE 500... almost bought one as my first motorcycle. (The Triumph dealer was also a Royal Enfield dealer). Can't wait until the 650 twins, they are more authentic than the new Triumphs in my mind!
I think a lot of people would agree with you there Andrew.
New shirt! That’s for too extravagant Stuart.
I my defence…. Santa gave me it!, turns out he rides a Bonneville when hes not working!
@@stuartfillingham Stuart, I always thought that Santa rode a Honda Goldwing. It has something to do with the shaft drive being much kinder to his Reindeer! Have a great 2019.
You're right... I never took Royal Enfield seriously. Too niche and small company. But just now, accidentally, found the Interceptor which will be in the U.S. this year. I don't know what it is about the bike, but I really like it! It's beautiful for sure and there have been great reviews on it's ride and fun level. Probably the Triumph equivalent is the T100. Which never really does it for me. The T120 is double the cost of the estimated $5800 price the Interceptor. I was even thinking of getting a used 70's Honda CB because I can get a great one for less than $4000. But didn't want to go the used route for many reasons.
Only glitch is the closest dealer from Manhattan New York is 2.5 hours away driving! So it's a hike. But otherwise, this can be a great choice. Looking forward to seeing their availability in the U.S!
Now if Haynes could also produce a manual for the different models for Ural's, I'd be happy.
send them an email Mark,
Love Urals, however with their long list of yearly updates and improvements it would make it a nightmare to write a manual for...
Hi, does this manual contain information on how to disassemble and assemble the motor? How to perform worshop repairs such as valves, clutch and other? There's an electronic version? Thx very much
If possible make one video over interceptor 650 especially engine quality and other important aspects.
Is there any way i can get an exact work shop manual for my 1966 model??its not available anywhere in internet as far as i know...pls help me.
Hmm... Always fancied owning Bullet 500. As Vim says below, would be v interested in a review if you ever get a chance to take one for a test ride Stuart. HNY!
definitely on my to do list chris.
I have one of those too...!
Hi Stu, do you know if the manual covers the diesel version of the Bullet ? The engine was a 6.5hp 325cc Greaves Lombardini. I believe they were produced by RE between 1980-2000, but Indian emissions regs sounded the death knell on them. Any info gratefully received.
I have heard rumours of a Hymalayan using the Interceptor 650cc engine, that would be very interesting !
Yeah they r gonna do it Siddharth said given hints in a interview
Having a 2020 machine and the fact that enfield have stopped producing the bullet. I guess that Haynes won't be issuing an updated manual to cover the last few years. Does anyone know if there were many mods since 2018? - Another excellent video !
Exactly the same bike between Euro4 2018 bullet and your 2020 model. That Haynes is a gem for every owner of EFI Bullet models imho.
Love Power Director.
After some initial excitement, I was disappointed to learn that they only cover from the introduction of the EFI MODELS, as I own an Electra X 500 2008 which was the last of the carburettor bikes produced for the European market. Oh well... life goes on.
Is this publication available in digital format.
yes
👍
I realize this is an older video but are you aware of any shop manuals for older Royal Enfield's I have a 2007 bullet 500???
It’s the fall again ! All 500CC models have been stopped due to stricter emission standards (BS6) in India.
