engine problem (bad news)


 all the bad news started after a night ride. something started to make a "bad" sound, the engine stopped and then...

 the intake pushrod was not in its place...

 the valve stem cap was not in the valve too


 and you can see that the cylinder head run out of oil. and these are the result of the high temp in the rockerset




 this was the reason of the damage. a broken feed oil pump (india made)

bad  news and luck too. i hope that the valves are ok...just hope

enfield bullet 500 bobber (last update)

 This is my new trial paintwork. I will decide at the end of the project the colour, but i think i like it..!!





This is my new minimalist tail light from a truck's accessories store..



A spring for the exaust's holder



I moved the battery case near the swing arm and put all the wires in a tubular box



At the end, this is the photo of the fender. I removed the paint..!! I'm waiting for a rat look, and after that  i will varnish it

So...rust in piecies

shift handle kit enfield bullet (non suicide clutch)

make your own shift handle kit for your enfield bullet.just use a stainless steel (wanted length and width) + a gear shift knob from a car's accessories. it's very easy and funny with simple tools.at the end the result is wonderful and gives more custom look..




 i made a video with the photos. feel free to contact me for more explanations or new ideas of the procedure
