The oil leak and maintenance problems are very typically Royal Enfield. If there is no oil drop on the garage floor, one does'nt feel he owns a Royal Enfield. Of the two despite the very innovative Thunderbird with twin sparks, the Electra looks traditionally a Royal Enfield of the 21st century. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
