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 name has continued through to the present day making it one of the longest-lasting names in the two-wheeled world. The 250cc single-cylinder Crusader was a very popular bike in the 1950/60s and in the days of 250cc bikes being learner legal, doubtless sparked the interest of many a future motorcyclist. A typical rugged and durable model with good brakes and suspension for the time, the Crusader is a simple and relatively lightweight bike for vintage runs and rallies.
From a deceased estate, this Enfield 250, being offered at no reserve, has been part of an enthusiast's small private collection for a number of years. It has already had some modifications done to the seat and mudguards and could form the basis of a nice cafe racer special. Dry stored in a carpeted garage and not used for at least 7 years, it will need recommissioning and will be supplied with a manual, many receipts and a current V5.
