  • I really disliked the look of the stock Royal Enfield Electra X so I decided to cut it... I mean customize it and make it a bobber. A true custom, not the factory bobber. So here we are, the story continues. The previous video on that Enfield customization process was here:

    Looking forward to seeing the bike completed, it's coming on quite nicely.

      Thanks Mark. It is pretty close to completion and it won't look much better really as I'm not going to spend a fortune on the finish... It's only a new(ish) Enfield after all 😜

    cool videos, I heard you put a 18" rear wheel with 130/? 18 , could you share the brand and whole size. and did you use the EFI model rear wheel, or did you relace to a 18"? thanks. I am currently tiring to lower a 2005 model so my wife can ride it. another help would be a source of a longer swinging arm, and do you think the stock fender will fit with the +6cm swinging arm? thanks again.

      Thanks buddy for the comment. Yes, I used 18" from EFI. It just fits. 130/80/18 is a tad bit too much even with extended swingarm. Current swingarm design doesn't allow wider tires - 120 is maximum you can fit. Without extending the swingarm it will be even less. 130 is doable on 6cm extension but with a small arms modification. I extended the swingarm myself (actually my mate did that). I guess you can just take your swingarm to any garage specializing in custom bikes and they should do that for you. Relatively easy job. I doubt the fender would fit though minding the wider tire. You also need a longer chain.

      @Vintage-Cycle no problem bud, just to answer your wife's issue - my daughter who's 158cm or 5ft 2" - she finds the bike a perfect height now.

      soon, for now I have to make Enfield ready to run, in the meantime I made some minor mods to my W800, later I will do some work on Beeza but I doubt I will be able to ride it now. And as I go soon on a longer trip to Spain it will need to wait I guess.
