The Black Enfield Bullet Classic that 30% presented to me for my 50th was sent over to Arden Motorcycles to be sold on commission too.
As with the Bonnie, she was a pleasant enough little bike and quite enjoyable for a potter around the lanes at 50 mph. However she lacked power and even I could get the rear brake pedal to grind the road surface when she was leant over negotiating roundabouts.
It was 30% that suggested that I part with her on one condition ... that I used the proceeds from the sale to buy a proper present. In other words, I wasn't to just put it in the bank or fritter it away on shirts and shoes.
So this left me with a couple of grand in the bank, potentially another couple of grand heading my way once the Enfield sold and two empty spaces in the garage.*
Time to peruse the internet!

* At one point in time I had accumulated six bikes. There were the two Enfields, the CBR 600, the Ducati 996, the Bonneville and the impulse buy.**** More on this in a future entry
