As overall motorcycle sales continue to increase, so do sales of routine replacement products such as tires and batteries. In recent years, the motorcycle industry has generated $20 billion in consumer sales and services, state taxes and licensing. Half of the retail outlets specialized in motorcycle-related parts, accessories, riding apparel, used vehicles or service, but did not sell new motorcycles, scooters or ATVs. Find the most affluent, active and devoted buyers in Motorcycle Classics. These consumers turn to our magazine for knowledge about their classic bikes – plus information on purchasing new bikes, as well as the products and services to keep them running.

From legendary bikes whose timeless designs and innovations have endured for decades to the modern retro classics gracing today’s showrooms, we showcase the best on two wheels. GEAR GEAR CULT CLASSIC DRIVEN 7 full-face helmets DRIVEN 6 Rain Suits 1985 Suzuki GS1150E to get you on the road this spring to Keep You Dry 1 Back in the November/December 2012 issue (the last time we covered rain suits, if you’re keeping track) we said the Joe Rocket RS-2 “might be the best deal going in motorcycle rain suits today.” And nearly three years later, we still feel the same way. Now available in an updated high-visibility neon green for the jacket, this suit features a polyester outer shell with a PVC backing plus a nylon comfort liner. A zippered back vent aides ventilation and the collar features corduroy lining for comfort. The two large outer pockets have waterproof Velcro rain flaps and it uses a full-length zipper with a Velcro rain flap and collar, plus an elastic waist and Velcro adjustable cuffs. The pants are made of the same materials, with added melt-resistant panels on the insides of each leg, plus elastic boot stirrups to keep the pants secured. A gusseted zipper runs all the way up to the knees for easier entry and exit. A stellar deal, this suit can be found online for less than $60 if you search a bit. Available in black, black/yellow, black/red, black/orange, or hi-viz neon in sizes S-3XL. Price: $69.95. More info: joerocket.com 1 Fresh from the team at Joe Rocket is the new R1000X Blaster ter helmet. The helmet is both Snell and DOT approved, and uses ses a polycarbonate composite shell. The R1000X Blaster features the he Quadport 2.0 ventilation system, which uses two large front intakes es channeled through to an aerodynamic rear venturi-effect spoiler to pull heat and humidity up and out of the helmet. It also has adjuststable forehead and chin bar intake vents, combined with three lower er intake and four lower exhaust vents to ensure a cool, dry ride. It also so has a fully removable, washable interior, and its optically superior face ce shield is hard coated outside and anti-fog coated inside. The R1000X 0X Blaster also comes with an additional hard-coated, dark smoke shield. d. Available in red/yellow, blue/orange or black/silver (shown). It’s a nice ice lid for the price, and one of the more affordable helmets here. Sizes: zes: S-2XL. Price: $169.99. More info: joerocket.com 1 2 3 The Mens Hi-Viz Rain Suit from Brooks Leather is a complete two-piece suit made using waterproof heat-sealed seam construction. We ordered our suit in the hi-viz color scheme, and brother, this jacket is bright! The jacket has inside and outside e waterproof zippered pockets on the left chest, along with two hookookand-loop storm flap pockets on the front. Hook-and-loop straps provide vide adjustment at the waist and sleeves, and the soft collar fabric provides des comfort. The fully mesh-lined pants have two pockets with hook-anddloop closure, and they feature heat-resistant leg panels to prevent nt damage from hot exhaust pipes. The leg bottoms have hook-and-loop p expansion panels for easy on-off, although riders with large boots will want to remove them first. There are detachable stirrup loops at the ankles and reflective piping that runs down the outside of both legs. A waist drawstring keeps them tight, along with elastic at the waist. The suit comes complete with a storage bag. Available in black, orange or hi-viz in sizes S-3XL. Also available in women’s sizes. Price: $79.95.

That made him cooler than cool, because the merely cool rest of us rode more common British bikes or maybe something Japanese. The Tourmaster Sentinel 2.0 jacket is made from waterproof but breathable rip-stop nylon with sealed seams and an under-the-helmet hood to keep water from leaking in at the collar. Three front pockets have hook-andloop rain flaps and a fourth chest map pocket is mesh-lined to vent when open. Waterproof zippered underarm vents are a nice touch, as is a back vent to help move air. 3M Scotchlite reflective piping aides visibility, and the jacket hass a self-contained pouch for storage. The Sentinel 2.0 pants nts are made of the same rip-stop nylon, but with an added available vailable Nomex liner on the insides of the legs. There are waterproof, proof, zippered hand pockets for storage, breathable stretch panels anels above the reinforced knees for comfort and heat-resistant ant leg panels. The high-rise rear panel includes a pant-to-jacket ket attachment zipper, and 3M Scotchlite reflective piping aides es visibility. Extra-long zippered openings at the leg bottomss aide entry, but riders with large boots will want to remove e them first. The pants also come with a storage bag. The e jacket is available in black, blue, red and hi-viz yellow. The pants come only in black. Sizes XS-5XL. Price: $114.99 (jacket), $94.99 (pants). More info: tourmaster.com 2 The Bell Qualifier Q DLX is the only helmet here ere that comes come equipped with a Transitions ns shield, which works just like sunSOLFX adaptive face sh glasses with photochromic lenses by automatically adapting to light. The shield is clear at night and in low light, and then gets progresli sively darker as ambient brightness increases. The shield also uses NutraFog II anti-fog, anti-scratch and UV protection. The Qualifier DLX is made with a lightweight, ventilated polycarbonate shell featuring four adjustable vents, a removable and washable moisture-wicking interior, contoured cheek pads, and a padded wind collar that reduces wind and road noise. Another cool feature of the DLX is that it’s built to accommodate a Bell Sena SMH10 or Cardo Scala Rider Q1/Q3 Bluetooth stereo headset and intercom. Available in graphics and solid colors, including solid white (shown), this is a modern-looking, well-made helmet that delivers the goods at a great price. DOT approved. Sizes: XS to 2XL. Price: $249.95. More info: bellhelmets.com/powersports 1 2 One of Arai’s best-known helmets has recently been updated: The Corsair-X is the latest evolution of the Corsair line, and to top it off, it’s available in a great throwback paint scheme. To commemorate “Fast” Freddie Spencer’s 1985 World Championship pa sseason, Arai debuted the Corsair-X Spencer 30th in a distinctive white, blue and red graphic with gold stripes and a Freddie Spencer emblem on the back. Arai is unique in offering different interior fit shapes to match different head shapes. The Corsair-X is Arai’s intermediate-oval shape and features Arai’s VAS Max Vision shield with a standard Pinlock insert. Featuring a variable axis with a moving pivot point, the VAS shield opens and closes incredibly smoothly. The smooth and strong Arai R75 shell is created from super fiber and special synthetic fibers and the liner is made of updated Eco-Pure material, which helps maintain a neutral pH level close to the skin. The liner is removable and washable, and different-sized crown pads can be used to customize the fit. Four adjustable vents work together to adjust the temperature as needed. Snell 2015 and DOT approved. Unquestionably one of the finest helmets available, but for a price. Sizes XS-3XL. Price: $969.95 (as shown).

I suspect he experienced an immediate spike in his coolness. Over the last 42 years — including six moves involving three states — Greg’s put lots of miles on it and made many memories with it. Though his current collection includes 26 motorcycles, Greg says the Interceptor is the last bike he’d sell. 3 14 July/August 2015 5/18/15 2:13 PM MOTORCYCLE CLASSICS 14-18 Enfield.indd 14 gaskets. Some of those parts — like the springs and pawls for the pump sprag — are really tiny, and for that reason we strongly suggest taking the pump apart inside a clear plastic bag so parts don’t go flying. If you lose any of the small hard parts, you’ll be looking for a replacement pump. We also strongly suggest taking photos during disassembly to aid assembly. Yet even with those warnings in mind, a rebuild is doable and in our case netted a perfectly functioning pump. It’s also affordable: HVCcycle.net’s comprehensive $37.50 kit (see inset photo above) covers all Yamaha oil pumps of this type and includes every seal and gasket you’ll need, plus new pump body screws and new Allen head body mounting bolts, a nice touch. A manual is handy, and bleeding air from the pump before operation is critical. SPONSORED BY A little background Royal Enfield was founded in the 1890s in Redditch, England (just south of Birmingham) by two bicycle manufacturers who also made interchangeable gun parts for the Royal Small Arms factory in Enfield. For its logo, the new company chose an artillery field gun. Royal Enfield’s first motorized bicycle, built in 1901, was followed by models incorporating such innovative features as crankcases with integral oil tanks (1903) and rubber “Cush Hub” drives to reduce chain snatch (1912). Royal Enfields were the first English production motorcycles with dry-sump lubrication systems and gear-type oil pumps (1913). The “Super 5” model, launched in 1961, was the first British production motorcycle with a 5-speed gearbox. In 1948, the company launched the model that was to become synonymous with Royal Enfield: the redesigned overhead valve single-cylinder Bullet. This robust and versatile machine was utilitarian but also excelled as a competition motorcycle, especially in trials events. Although Enfield ceased U.K. production of motorcycles in June 1970 to focus on military contracts (Royal Enfield had been making aircraft and guided missile components as well as motorcycles), Enfield Bullets are still being made in India, mak- Rebuild a Yamaha Autolube oil pump s a rule, we try to focus our How-Tos on repairs we think the weekend mechanic can aspire to, so we’ll kick this one off with a qualifying statement: Rebuilding a Yamaha Autolube oil pump requires more than average care and attention. Our factory Yamaha manual specifically says of the pump, “Make no attempt to disassemble it,” yet it can be rebuilt. Pump failure is typically due to bad seals or, as we found with our 1974 DT125, sludged or stuck parts. In our case the spring for the pump shaft had rusted in the compressed position. A previous owner bypassed the pump in favor of premixing the fuel/oil, likely because the pump couldn’t stroke with a stuck spring. As the photo above shows, the Autolube may be a little pump, but it has a surprisingly large number of parts: We counted 39 pieces total, including ing Royal Enfields the longest continually produced motorcycles in the world. Though never as large as BSA, Triumph or Norton, Royal Enfield had an advantage: Its small senior management team included enthusiastic motorcyclists and former competitors who knew what riders wanted. They fostered new ideas and encouraged the introduction of models known for innovative design and robust construction. The Big Twins Royal Enfield launched its first parallel (or vertical) twin in 1948, with a 64mm by 77mm bore and stroke and 25 horsepower. The basic design of the 500 Twin was to be carried through the subsequent, larger displacement models and included a long stroke for low-end power, a one-piece cast iron crankshaft, and separate cast iron barrels with aluminum heads and short alloy pushrods riding on a pair of camshafts. Advanced features for the time included a full-flow oil filter and semi-unit construction, with the gearbox bolted to the rear of the engine. The frame was welded steel with a single downtube attached to the front of the engine-gearbox unit, which acted as a stressed member. The swingarm rear suspension was a first for a parallel twin. In 1953 the Meteor 700 was introduced as Britain’s biggest parallel twin — BSA and Triumph offered only 650s at the time. The 36 horsepower, 693cc Meteor was primarily intended to meet the needs of the sidecar market. It was essentially a “Double-Bullet,” each cylinder having the same bore (70mm) and stroke (90mm) — and pistons — as the 350cc single. The Super Meteor followed in 1955 as a more sporting Meteor. Made in response to U.S. market demands for more power, it made 40 horsepower and was the first Royal Enfield capable of 100mph. The 51 horsepower Constellation followed in 1958 with hotter cams, a single 10TT9 Amal carb and siamesed exhaust. In 1961 the factory made a limited run of Constellation-based specials for the U.S. market, the 700 Interceptor. Set up for March/April 2016 offroad enduro-style events, they weren’t popular and most of the approximately 160 bikes were retrofitted by dealers with aftermarket horns, mirrors and lights and sold for road use. In late 1962, Royal Enfield bored and stroked the Constellation’s engine to 736cc to launch the 750 Interceptor Mk1. It went headto-head in the showrooms with the new Norton Atlas 750 and, like the Norton, it was aimed squarely at the U.S. market. Both bikes were offered stateside before they became available in the U.K. Enfield dynamically balanced its big twin engines, reducing vibration compared to large displacement bikes made by competitors, who used static balancing. The long-stroke design produced abundant torque from low revs, making the bikes very tractable and capable of impressive acceleration. On the downside, the separate barrels and heads meant that the engines — being stressed members — tended to flex, which, combined with poor crankcase venting, led to the bikes having a reputation for leaking oil, hence the nickname “Royal Oilfield.” www.MotorcycleClassics.com 1/18/16 8:58 AM 14-18 Enfield.indd 15 1 The oil pump is under the right front cover. Remove the cover, noting the oil throttle cable that pulls on the pump. Rotate the pulley to slacken the cable. Disconnect the cable from the pulley, then disconnect the oil feed lines. Remove the two Phillips head screws securing the pump. 15 1/18/16 8:58 AM Motorcycle Classics • 1503 SW 42nd St. • Topeka, KS 66609 • 800.678.5779 • adinfo@ogdenpubs.com • www.MotorcycleClassics.com 2 With the pump removed from the engine, remove the small cotter pin securing the manual oil starter plate, followed by the plate itself. The plate might be stuck to the shaft. If it is, spray it with penetrant and carefully work it off to avoid accidentally breaking the plate. 3 Next, turn the pump over and loosen the 9mm nut securing the cable pulley to the oil pump plunger shaft. Hold the pulley against the pump body, then remove the nut, wave washer, adjustment plate and any shims under the adjustment plate. Keep the shims safe; they’re crucial to pump calibration. www.MotorcycleClassics.com 73-76 How-To.indd 73 73 5/16/16 2:28 PM e d it o r ial c o v e r ag e Model Profiles and Restorations In-depth features on the most interesting and significant classic motorcycles along with exotic, one-of-a-kind bikes being restored and customized for all motorcycle enthusiasts and collectors.
