I just joined this forum, so thought I'd jump right in and start posting.
Although I'm new to the Royal Enfield brand of motorcycles, I'm not new to riding -- I bought my first bike, a Honda CB350 twin, back in 1973. I currently have a 2005 BMW R1200RT and a Vespa scooter GTS300 and just placed my order for a 2013 Royal Enfield Military. Other than a short demo ride at the RE dealer's, I must confess that I really don't have any experience with these bikes but I love the vintage, old-school look.
I am most curious about one thing...
As I started my online RE research a few weeks ago, it seems like the vast majority of pre-owned REs "for sale by owner" are several years old, have very low mileage and most have had at least two owners. Compared to other bikes I have or had in the past, this seems odd to me.
Can someone please explain this to me?
