This Suzuki was there. Everyone knows I'm a sucker for two strokes but this thing was pretty darn cool.

Every once a while a vehicle shows up that proves everyone at C@D really is just a simple gearhead. This bike pulled up and I honestly thought it had a serious rod knock. It drew a SERIOUS crowd... more than the guy that road up on a Ducati Diavel the first morning they were available.

This lovely Royal Enfield chassised diesel is owned by the proprietor of the Santa Fe Royal Enfield dealership. 325cc's, 6.5 HP, 18-1 compression, 176 MPH. The owner said it was on it's second tank of gas in 10 years. The perfect bike for Justin if you only added turbos, intercoolers and 1000 ft-lbs of torque.
Like most Royal Enfields this thing just screamed Harbor Freight type shoddiness. Whatever the price, the complete horror/disdain for the black smoke billowing out of it upon kick start seen in the eyes of the lady standing next to me was well worth the $.
