The Enfield is the IRT of the motorcycle world. Basically India imported some in the 50s and said good enough and copied the bike and started selling them. They even make a diesel model which is very beta.
The diesel version hit the market when I was there ( must of been 94/95 ). It's an awful idea,the noise on them is incredible,real nasty. Very economical though hence they became the choice of rural farmer types.
The regular Bullet though won't get criticized by me. Carried me all over India and never let me down. It just did it very slowly.
