Title: Royal Enfield races American Flat track!
Post by: norton73 on September 23, 2020, 05:09:25 PM



This year's AFT season started late and is mostly doubleheader weekends to get all the races in.

Royal Enfield made it's debut at Williams Grove half mile last weekend.

"The phrase "competitive straight out of the box" has been used to describe race motorcycles before, but it has never been so literal as last Friday's AFT Production Twins races at the Williams Grove Half-Mile. The motorcycle that Lewis rode at Williams Grove Speedway only arrived in the U.S. three days before the race, in pieces, and had to be assembled in the following two days. Timing was so tight that there was no time for a track test - the official practice session on Friday was the first time Lewis rode his Twins FT. Lewis went on to shock the field , taking a third place semi-final finish and an incredible sixth place finish in the main event, an amazing first outing for the team."

Cool.  I do like my Himalayan , and have test ridden the 650.  If I didn't already have my V7 I would probably own a Continental  GT.
