True enough. Then Id have to ride it around and enjoy it until the

Don't forget...you're going to need an appropriate helmet to complete
"the look". Certainly one of those neon fiberglass crotch-rocket
helmets won't do. I am thinking maybe one of those old leather
football helmets paired up with an old pair of brazing goggles (the
ones with two separate round eye lenses) will give you sort of that
retro/steam-punk kind of vibe. Bonus points if you can get two sets
and put one set on your dog while you drive him/her around in the side
car.

OOOO!!!! I LIKE IT!! Though..the thought has passed through my widdle
skull full of mush that the Royal Enfield would indeed make an
absolutely marvelous Steam Punk scooter.....
