NC250 Royal Enfields NW Roadtrip Pt 9 The Lecht Road to Braemar

Join us on the first Roadtrip this year on our royal Enfields,
4 bikes, 4 days, 3 nights camping weather permitting, and what would be an 800 mile trip as we ride the NW coast of Scotland, along some of the now signed NC 500, making a NC250 route with better routes forming a loop from Dalwhinnie to Perth - I do not have a GPX file of this route as planned on map and 30 years riding in Scotland., in some of the best roads and sights, and we will be riding other great roads less used by others away from the now famous and busy coastal route, returning home on the highest roads in the UK!...
In Pt 9 we ride south over the Lecht Ski Centre pass, into the clouds, on the second highest road in the UK!...

Epic effort by you all riding thru that weather!! I like the red and black Hnter.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi Simon, going to do a film on Johns Hunter soon 😁👍

LOL! Filled up at that petrol station at Braemar on Saturday before stopping at Tee at the Shee for lunch. Great road.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Will be back up a few more times this summer 😁👍

Definately better in the sunshine, but always nice to be on the bike. 👍 The DNA and cat delete transformed my Meteor. Improved sound, torque and 0 to 60 . 😎 🥃

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi Lance, good to get a nice noise too with the mods done 😁👍🥃

I take my hat off to you all. Some distance to cover.😊 I would bail out, with fatigue……lol
I really wanted to come join you from Lecht. But chicken’d out, due to weather😢
Still to do this on the bike.
The War horse nailed it.😊 great sound.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Warhorse rocked up the Lecht Mark 😜😁👊

[@user-ec9dh2oh5e]

I consider ourselves very lucky everytime we've done this route weathers been excellent...its usually west coast can be a bit wet ....anyway I'm always amazed at how enfields have a sweet spot of torque( yeah not fast)....but more than enough for UK roads as you know....here in lake district there's no pass or hill I can't get up potholes traffic etc ..spoil real power... atb...

[@Coastriderscotland]

Very true! 😁👍

Morning Bruce, more proof of the Classic 350's abilities! 👍, I posted some of my Scotland tour pictures on a Royal Enfield site, and a guy was asking how my bike coped as it seemed a long trip for a small bike? He owned a GSX1000 and is thinking of moving away from the big bikes, I explained just how capable these bikes are then suggested he visits your channel if he needed more convincing ! 😆
Cheers Mel 🍻

[@Coastriderscotland]

Thanks Mel, funny the 350s managed The UKs highest roads easily! 😁💪

[@davericketts9101]

So, you can`t tour on a Royal Enfield Classic 350, eh? Great stuff Bruce and friends.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Perfect tourers for Scotland Dave 😁👍👊

[@Paulwhitham-xi2nr]

Your wonderful videos encouraged me to purchase RE like yours except mine is in desert sand colour.

[@Coastriderscotland]

Wonderful! Desert sand is deffo the best looking in sand

[@shreyasacharya]

Is that your exhaust making a bassy sound? Which exhaust is it

[@Coastriderscotland]

Hi 350 has the Hitchcocks UK full stainless exhaust and the DNA air filter and the Kent performance camshaft which adds a a sharper bark to the exhaust note 😜😁👍

[@John-ci2sd]

It's my hunter, everyone knows it ✌✌✌
