Must have been one of those bike builds, that the worker put together, before going on vacation. Of course karma may injure that individual, at the workplace one day... Take care Jim, ride safe.
@@JimDiesel71 Royal Enfield produced around 950,000 motorcycles in 2023, so many thousands of people are obviously happy to buy their machines. If yours is crap, you might just have bought what we used to call a Friday afternoon special.
So you 'lifted the tank', (which means you had to disconnect the fuel line), but then blame RE for the badly connected fuel line! You either didn't disconnect the fuel line when you lifted the tank, straining the spigot to the point of failure or you didn't connect it back up properly and snapped the spigot off. Nothing to do with RE and lots to do with ham-fisted mechanics. Read the workshop manual mate and do the job properly.
Didn't lift the tank at that end. The fuel line was too long the other way pushing the connection to the pump outwards, obviously you didn't listen or clean understand thanks for the comment though.
I was interested in hearing what you had to say, however, your audio quality is total crap. When you fix that, I'll come back. RUclipsrs: Audio quality is more important than video quality, and takes effort to achieve. Do better.
Bought three over the space of 4 years) Hima 411/intercept/meteor...still have them all...all good (few small niggles) so unless you are a total mechanical numpty(in which case motorcycling is not for you) your post is BS...however have a nice day.
@@markpavlowski7223 maybe their export bikes r built better like a lot of other products from India , idk! Before saying motorcycling ain’t for me , lemme tell you I’m in this game for over 2 decades and have owned 15 motorcycles including 2 REs
Designed to meet the exacting standards of Indian motorcycling.
Don't tell the RE fanboys they won't believe you.
Looking at fuel line footage, I can see a large O/D rubber fuel line and Jubilee clip. Unless replaced by you, that's not a standard RE fuel line.
@@tjdUK thanks I will look into it.

You got a duff one, mine is perfect, 2 years on my Meteor has had zero faults.
I think your right, bike otherwise has been great.

I have a similar issue.(too much pipe)
Plasticuffs 😂. You perv 😂. Nice vid Jim.
Made in India , so what do you expect .
I would not even think of buying one .Keep my 2010 z750r .
You kinda get what you pay for, and the quality has always been a bit dodgy on Enfields

RE is a horrible company! Even Indians are going for better options! I cringe when people in uk n Australia buy these vibrating metal scrap

What did you think when you buy a motorcycle that is made in India by child labor, a quality product
He hasn't.
