Introduction: A Century-Old Heritage
Royal Enfield has lived on globally with riders for generations, this timeless name and mark of a
hundred-year legacy. Their story started in 1893 when two Englishmen, Bob Walker Smith and
Albert Eadie bought George Townsend & Co. at Redditch, England. This was the birth of a
name that would soon be synonymous with classic motorcycles.
The Royal Connection
Previously they were quite a mouthful as the Royal Small Arms Factory in Enfield, Middlesex
lent themselves to that prestigious name: Royal Enfield. This connection to the British crown
meant it was seen as a long-term, well-made brand.
From field to boulevard
Royal Enfield motorcycles became popular during World War 1 when they provided soldiers with
dependable transportation. After the war, the company evolved and introduced game-changing
models including that of The Bullet which later on helped in defining revolution as well as freedom.
The Indian Chapter
The post-World War II era saw Royal Enfield with a new home in India by the 1950s, like these
two mid-century Redditch REs. Indian Company Madras Motors got the right to manufacture
Royal Enfield bikes. The cult following of the Bullet, for example, by successive generations of
Indian riders were legendary.
Modern Revival
Over the past few years, Royal Enfield has once again shot into relevance and taken over
the hearts of a new generation. And the brand’s keen sense of classic-yet-modern design has
made it an instant hot choice among riders looking to do something different.
