    Just added a third bike to the fleet, I have a BSA C15 and a Street Twin, wanted something in between and bought a 2014 Bullet 500 Classic EFi, always steered clear of Enfields due to reliability reputation, but this bike is really good fun, good old thumper for the back lanes.

    Retiring in a couple of weeks, one of the companies that I contract for gave me a £500 Triumph token, renewed all my worn out kit, new boots, open face helmet for the Bullet and a Triumph watch, here they are being admired

    Thanks half ton, I went over the bike when I bought it (private sale) and tightened up everything that needed it, riding a BSA also gives me plenty of DIY, I will pull the chain and have a look, thanks for the tip.
    The 500 single is great, it has electric start, but also easy to kick start - I used to have a Yam XT500 which could be quite hard work to start.
    Recommend this bike for a rural ride through the lanes, absolutely great fun, however did a 50 mile run on the Street Twin this morning, equally enjoyable.
