Through sheer frustration at so many 'over-my-head' explanations on how it should be done, I decided to produce a complete technical guide to all the processes required to restore a complete Royal Enfield. 90% of all the parts were painstakingly repaired, from the Smiths clock, the tank, bakelite switches, respraying and upholstery. I also cover the 6 volt challenges and the good and bad of LED lights on a vintage motorcycle. Yes if you are thinking about restoring an English / British made vintage motorbike then you just lucked out! It doesn’t really matter what model or brand you choose, you will learn each step on how to organise your workshop, strip and re-assemble the parts, to painting and most importantly.... how to setup and tune the engine and the Amal carburettor.
