Royal Enfield Motorcycles produced over 17,000 Model C motorcycles for the War Department during WW2 before production ceased in early 1942. Following the end of the war in Europe in May 1945, the WD/C Royal Enfield was among the first types of War Office machinery to be sold off or sold back to the factory. Having been rebuilt from stocks of both new and reconditioned parts, these post-war “new” Model C motorcycles were sold to a transport-hungry public. We believe that this motorcycle is one of these bikes.

On offer is a Royal Enfield Model C, a machine that was likely to have been produced in 1945. The Enfield was not registered until 1950 for reasons unknown. It has been in the family for 40 years and in that time it has been restored and enjoyed. We have been advised the Enfield 'runs well' and is a nice gentle ride. This Model C is being offered with a current V5C, handbooks, various literature, an old tool roll and copies of books by Bruce Main-Smith.
