      @@AN-nn5si Incidentally I have seem the same engine used by the local “Ganna juice” Sugarcane juice vendors. They use the same engine as the powerhouse that runs their “squeezer machine”.
      After seeing the engine I’ve jokingly asked them “kitna deti hai” they said 100Rs diesel is enough for a whole day’s worth of operation. And mind you that engine is kept on idle status for the whole time that stall is open. All he does is pull on a lever (acceleration cable) to increase the revs and get more power when the cane is to be squeezed.

    Good One!! @ Faisal Khan.
    I still own one and use it as a daily driver here in Kochi, Kerala. When it comes to vibrations I truly agree (it gives amazing full body massage :P ), but I've always felt that keeping the revs low and speeds in the 40 -50 KMPH is the sweet spot for my Diesel Enfield. And yes, I only ride it around it because the fuel cost gives me around 70 KMPL on average. But now the novelty factor has kicked in and makes me proud to say that I ride around in a truly unique motorcycle, which is a piece of history in itself.

    Bike which you are riding is not in good condition
    Few points to correct
    1. There are officially 2 Diesel bikes ever sold in India
    1. Royal Enfield Taurus
    2. Sooraj Diesel
    3. Petrol bullet covert to Greaves Diesel engine on bullet (not company fitted)
    It's small trick to start this bike,
    you just need to pull up a decompression nobe which is near to a piston head then have to kick slow twice to make compression and mostly by 3rd kick it will start bcz it's Diesel engine which doesn't have spark plug to ignite.
    It doesn't need to pour diesel in that hole which showed we have to pour it only when it's extremely cold condition.
    2. The bike which you are riding is not Taurus it's Diesel bullet which is petrol bullet convert to diesel with Greaves 6.5hp 15nm torque @3600 rpm. On Taurus engine has slightly lower power with round engine cover
    It's very nice bike just need to drive differently
    Yeah it vibrates alot
    I have Diesel bullet and I am very happy to using on a daily basis

    Faisal is a 2 k kid who has no clue of this legendary bike and crase it had during 80s. I understand his frustration. I am surprised he was even able to ride it.
