Description
The Royal Enfield Bullet: A Story of Resilience and Revival. From its origins in the 1930s to its current status as a beloved motorcycle, the Royal Enfield Bullet has experienced a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs. The story begins with the Bullets' popularity in post-War Britain, before they became an integral part of the Indian Army. However, the marque's fortunes took a hit in the 1990s, leading to concerns that the Bullet might not survive. Fortunately, the Eicher Group's involvement from 2001 onwards helped revive the brand, and the updated Bullet regained its commercial success. This book tells the story behind the Royal Enfield company, from its early days to the relaunch of the Bullet in 1949, as well as its subsequent evolution and updates. With over 200 photographs, it's a comprehensive look at the development of this iconic motorcycle. The book covers not only the original Bullets but also derivative models, competition bikes, road bikes, and special editions like diesels and V-twins. It also delves into the design story behind the UCE and Classic Bullets, as well as the evolution beyond the Bullet itself, including the Continental GT and Himalayan 650 twins.
