    wessie was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:
    No, especially as it's the 350 and you can get a new 500 for something
    3-3.5k.

    Nope!

    A guy down Braintree way (IIRC) imports a few himself, every now and then.
    Flogs 'em new for under £2K! for a 500!

    Indian Enfields 2nd hand go for less than a grand. They normally need a top
    rebuild before 10K is up apparently.

    Mind ewe, I still fancy one at the right price, just to feck about on.

    More likely to need a bottom end IME. And a new bottom end needed
    basically means that the bike is a write off.

    Only the terminally daft or totally fuckwitted would bother with (for
    example) a replacement engine.

    Only the stupid suggest bringing one back as hand luggage, for the right
    fee..
