Getting Ready to Start’er Up

Today’s goal: to start the bike

We put the carburetor back on, cleaned and checked the gap on the spark plugs, cleaned any electric connection. The other day I took off all rocker box covers and we checked the tolerance on the cylinder – great condition.

My First Build – Royal Enfield

This is my new baby, a 1963 Royal Enfield Meteor Minor

Well, it’s registered as a 1963 but we think it’s actually a ’61. It was a little difficult to identify at first with the modifications, most of which we believe were done in the mid 70s. You can tell right away from the trendy headlamp, bars and paint job. On the outside it looks rusty and gross, but there’s a lot of key parts that are in great condition.

A little about the Meteor Minor:

These bikes were offered from 1958-1963 and are the last of the RE 500 twins. It’s a smaller bike but still has the piston size of the 700cc Meteor with a stroke of 64.5mm. Royal Enfield boasted that it was ‘compact’ and ‘power packed’ with ‘amazing new easy to handle performance.’ All versions weighed around 390lb, had a saddle height of 29 inches, wheelbase of 53 inches and ground clearance of 5.5 inches – pretty standard for roadgoing twins of the time. In 1960 Royal Enfield suggest that the 500 was one of those ‘have your cake and eat it’ motorcycles: ‘the luxury touring model that goes really fast!’
