The Royal Enfield Cafe Racer was unveiled in a video posted on Motorcycle Daily.
We learn more details about the Royal Enfield Cafe Racer in a video of its unveiling this month at the Long Beach International Motorcycle Show, as posted on Motorcycle Daily.
For one thing, we learn that it will be a "2014" model, because it is expected to be for sale in the United States so late in 2013 — not until July or August.
Price is expected to be $7,295.
It will have a larger single-cylinder motor — 535cc instead of Royal Enfield's standard 500cc.
It will be 47 pounds lighter than other Royal Enfields, weighing as little as 358 pounds.
The sophisticated new frame was designed by the same folks who design Ducatis. Its suspension is unique to the Cafe Racer.
It will come with a two-year unlimited warranty.
Accessories will include aluminum fenders instead of plastic; aluminum upper and lower triple trees; a single seat or a dual seat; two sets of exhaust systems; two styles of handlebars; steel, aluminum or plastic gas tanks; and different gear ratios available for use in a potential "spec racing" class.
The accessory list alone makes it an intriguing prospect. What would yours look like?
