Enfield 612 GTC Prova
SOLD
There's always a “back story” behind every bike we build and this one's no exception…
The Enfield factory in… India, mesmerised by our raucous styling expertise (!...) asked us to design and build a prototype that would give their iconic single cylinder bikes a new lease of life.
And there we have it; with me smiling whilst typing these notes…
Based on a brand new iconic Continental 535 GT EFI Enfield but transformed into a SoCal Desert Sled on 2 x 19” wheels, 612cc carbureted and stroked motor, peanut tank, Beringer racing calipers, discs and hand controls together with many more custom applications as listed in this specsheet.
Specced up by JETS’ Jeff Duval and rebuilt from scratch by Moore Speed Racing based in Poole in Southern England, it has now come back from Best in Class motorcycle paint shop artists Image Custom Design of Camberley near London.
And… No!... It wozn’t thankfully ever be painted black for sure!...
This bike will be on display at Moore Speed Racing for a few weeks from September 2022
