SUMMARY
A well presented example of Enfield's handsome post-war single from long term storage.
DESCRIPTION
- The Model G was built from 1936 to 1954, and shared the Bullet’s 346cc OHV engine but had a slightly less sporty specification (rigid rear end and cast-iron head
- In essence, the Model G was the bike for the working man, priced to reflect that and it happened to be good value for money
- Although it was the cheapest 350cc single on the British market, it was still good for 69mph, just 5mph short of the Bullet, and the small Amal carburettor was intended specifically for fuel economy
- Its specification was improved in 1951 when its compression ratio was increased to the Bullet’s 6.5:1
- Dating from 1951, this example is appears to have benefitted from an older restoration
- Last on the road in 2006 and dry stored since then
- Some level of recommissioning will be required before regular road use
- UK-registered with a current V5
