1929 Royal Enfield Model 350

Registration Number: TT 4093
Frame Number: 19168 

Royal Enfield built its first powered vehicles - De Dion-engined tricycles and quadricycles - in the closing years of the 19th Century, followed by its first motorcycle from 1900. The first 2¾hp (350cc) Enfield appeared in 1924 in overhead-valve and sidevalve versions, both of which used engines supplied by J A Prestwich. The JAP engine gave way to one of Royal Enfield's own manufacture for 1925, at which time the three-speed Sturmey Archer gearbox was standardised. The big Royal Enfield was the firm’s premium model of the Vintage era, and a beautifully built machine.

This smart 350cc side valve Royal Enfield was comprehensively restored by our vendor approximately 30 years ago, with new engine internals including crank, piston and cams. Initially given an age-related registration, the bike subsequently regained its original and desirable ‘TT’ registration. In regular use ever since, the 350 has successfully completed many VMCC events, including the Banbury Run where it won the Ivor Mutton (best Royal Enfield) Award in 2013 and 2014. The bike was awarded a Highly Commended rosette at a Bristol Show, and featured in Classic Motorcycle magazine in July 2007. 

Described our vendor as a “tidy, reliable and nippy machine in full working order”, could you possibly ask for more?
