I had a 1959 Super Meteor and it was a real monster, drop the clutch on a healthy handful of throttle and the front wheel would leave the ground if you weren't careful, a beautiful beast of a bike.
I have a 55 or 56 Royal Enfield 700 that was branded as an Indian Trailblazer. It was my dads but is not in running condition. Needs some work. There was a crack in one of the cylinder sleeves? Not sure it that's what it is called. I want to get it running while my dad is still alive. Cool bikes.
wow, that exhaust note 🔥
1st thing I would do, is bin the indicators.
It spoils a lovely classic machine.
God no, i've been knocked off my old triumph too many times by idiots in cars who don't know what hand signals mean. Safety first.

Sounds like a tractor
Pipes are the same length. Not so on other British Twins... therefore no two octave melody. -DU69160
But a very fast tractor indeed !
@@johnbrereton5229 Yup
Most long stroke moters sound like tractor because tractor itself is a long stroke beast.
Engine is rumbling like hell
