    I had never actually looked at RE because of my aversion to supporting England

    Good news! The English part of RE went bunk in the 60s, the company is 100% Indian now. That’s the reason why they’re so cheap - RE makes about as many motorcycles as all of the European brands do combined, so they have a serious economy of scale advantage in addition to the advantage of being a hundred years old.

      I saw that after looking at some of their bikes and was much happier. They have some sweet looking designs too. The scram 411 and shotgun 650 look good. I’ll have to test them at a local dealership
