Royal Enfield

The company that made Royal Enfield motorcycles began in 1851 in Worcestershire, England. Surprisingly, they didn't start out making motorcycles, they made sewing needles and parts for machinery before they began to produce first bicycles. It was not until 1893 that the name Enfield appeared. It was 1901 that Enfield first made a motorcar based on their previous experience with quadricycles. The Royal Enfield car was on the roads in 1902, but the production soon waned and it was the advent of World War I when the government asked Royal Enfield to produce motorcycles, but not for the British, the motorcycles were destined for the Russians.

After the war Enfield began to produce bigger motorcycles than their previous 225cc and 425cc V twin, they ventured into a motorcycle with 976cc for sidecars which became popular between the wars.
