Default Re: Royal Enfield Continental GT

I do understand the market for "old style" bikes like this, and has been said the Enfield is about as old school as you can get, but why do they have to spoil it by putting in a digital instrument.

My favorite for this type of bike is the Kawasaki W650, but they put a digital odometer on that as well!

Oh and by the way, if you've ridden an Enfield and thought it didn't handle, trying riding a proper old bike. I've got a 1960 Matchless G350 which is getting a bit smokey in it's old age and will only do about 50mph, and trust me you wouldn't want to go any faster!
