She’s Got a Look and a Name

We’ve spent some time debating what to do with the Royal Enfield. Today I think we finally achieved the vision.

After staring at her for a while, we finally started disassembling. But not before I named her….Mimosa. Yeah, girly as it is, it’s based off the paint scheme. I LOVE blood oranges and mimosas….combine the two and you get my favorite Sunday beverage. I was drinking a blood orange mimosa when this thought initially crossed my mind. It stuck. Her name is Mimosa for sure.

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.

Step 1 to Starting the Bike: The Carb

WORKING WITH THE CARBURETOR

We need to see if the bike will actually start. So we’re checking it piece by piece, starting with the carburetor, or carburetter. A few days ago my #1 guide and support, Ryan, took it apart and had it cleaned, today we put it back together. (Now it’s the only shiny part of the bike)

carb1

I have an Amal 389 series monobloc carburetor.  This is an important piece to understand, so I spent some time reading and learning about this specific carb, getting an idea of how it works, how to tune it….and just what it is. The goal of the carb is to mix the right amount of gas with air so that the engine runs properly. The throttle controls the volume of mixture and therefore the power. If there is not enough fuel mixed with air, the mixture is weak (causes poor acceleration, erratic slow running, overheating) . Too much fuel mixed with the air can make the engine run rich (bogs down, black smoke, carb leaks and wastes gas).

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!’
