Ummm! Michael, NO!

Here is the link: kromworks-bullet-500 (https://www.returnofthecaferacers.com/royal-enfield-cafe-racer/kromworks-bullet-500/)

Kat hit the nail on the head, "It's a house bike!"  ;D ;D

No need for further comment from me.

My regards, Bill

Silly and yet so well done. Reminds me of the 50cc racers of the 60s for some reason.

Don't get me wrong I think it is awful to condemn a good motor to a life time of poncey shows but hey ho that's the modern way.

if that motor is putting out a bit above standard oomph, then the back wheel will meet the front wheel fairly quickly.
it's been said, but put a nice old 100cc 2 stroke in it , and it could make a fun bike to ride..... but of course it'll never see tarmac will it...
