Excellent!!!

Yet another sub 100 cc restored...

Here is my another bike restored to its stock glory ( to my best of knowledge)
Friends guess ???( the license plate pic posted here may shed some light...)

Guess- it is a EXPLORER

My Explorer 1985 ( a CKD kit assembled) , was in running condition,when picked couple of years before, but plenty of stock parts missing L I K E....
..Head light fairing, Indicators, Head light, Bing carb ( had the later version MIKCARB),bit noisy power-train{ not powertwin} etc.,
As plenty of big projects on the way....decided to restore this German engineered Explorer CS 50 as a part time resto project!!
Project activity:
* Sourcing the above mentioned parts, including the upholstery rexine "Bhor '68 ( which was the order on the early Exporers & Furys )

** Completely stripping, painting, plating, galvanizing, electricals fixing, Engine completely redone ( it is Butter smooth now)
Original stickers, Hella head light, German Indicators as bonus
& now the bike:


polypropylene Front head light fairing ( later version had the Indian FRP fairing)

Mikarb Carb seems to be a " made for each other"...wonderful fuel efficiency , with marginal power loss, when compared to the German Bing Carburetor ( have a new Bing carb also...no pics @ this juncture will post later)


Indicators !!

Instruments...& controls

Bhor 68..the fabric that breathes really

Hella H/Light>>

The BING Carburetor...hold it!!



Need tech spec for this machine??

Superb restoration bro, just like its freshly out from the showroom. but i found that the instrument console is not having the unique Electric RPM meter which is the first of its kind on any Indian bike at that time. or did the first CKD bikes came without it?

unique Electric RPM meter @ EXPLORER

Hi, You told that you'll call Monday morning..??
Yes,early Explorers had RPM meters as optional part !!
As the early CKD assembled bikes are " contact breaker Ignition" ( points) No electric pulse for ELECTRIC RPM meter, only CDI bikes can have it, though I have one( a VDO RPM meter), I went on to have that EI logo dummy cap as a stock part instead of having the OPTIONAL stuff

Hi Buddy,
You mean to be from our mid '80 s " ENFIELD INDIA" show room..

awesum bikes..amazing condition.. hatts offf

Not much into Enfields in those days, i was a Yamaha Fanboy in the 80's, but interested in the Zundapp bikes.
