The first Royal Enfield motorcycle was built in 1901 by the Enfield Cycle Company of Redditch having previously manufactured bicycles, lawnmowers and stationary engines. Under various ownership, the brand has continued through to the present day making it one of the longest-lasting names in the two-wheeled world. Initially just called Enfield, in 1911 they added Royal to the company name and in the early years of the last century were one of the more popular bikes available. The Bullet holds the distinction of being the world's longest-running production motorcycle having been built in various capacities from 1933 to the present day.

This 1959 Royal Enfield 350 Bullet was recently found in a shed having been off the road for many years and looks to have last been taxed in 1964. A full restoration would be required for this machine. It was placed on the DVLA system back in 1981 and has the old style V5. Sold as per pictures, it comes with no other components.
