The first Royal Enfield motorcycle was built in 1901 by the Enfield Cycle Company of Redditch, having previously manufactured bicycles, lawnmowers and stationary engines. Under various ownership, the name has continued through to the present day, making it one of the most enduring names in the two-wheeled world. The 700cc Constellation was one of the last British-made models produced in the Redditch factory before its eventual closure in the mid-1960s.
This 1958 Royal Enfield Constellation has come from a deceased estate. A restoration was underway, however, the late vendor sadly passed away before it was completed. The engine may have been overhauled to some degree and some paint work carried out, but it is not known how far the restoration has been taken. A very worthwhile project to complete over the winter months. Offered with a V5C and some handbooks, there is also a collection of parts with the machine.
