The Royal Enfield

Let's talk about the Royal Enfield 500. And of course, I mean the new one. Either the 2000+ model with the righthand shift or the 2010+ model with FI and no kick starter. Anyone have any experience with them, have read about them or just have a passing opinion?

Indian-made 500cc single. Based on a 50-year-old design. Not much speed, not-much rear brake, plenty of vibration. But a beautiful and timeless design. Why would I want one? The notion of getting back to riding for the sake of riding, for enjoying the back roads and avoiding the highway. For the experience, I suppose. What are your thoughts?
