The Enfield name still stands tall, when many of its contemporaries have long since disappeared. But in case anyone only associates the marque with longevity and rugged but hardly up-to-the-minute design, there was a time when Royal Enfield meant innovation.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eMick Walker\u003c\/em\u003e's book reveals that, for the first half of the twentieth century, the then Redditch-based company pioneered features such as dry sump lubrication, quickly detachable wheels, the countershaft gearbox, three and four valves per cylinder and swinging arm rear suspension. And although most enthusiasts will now remember Royal Enfield for its four-stroke singles and parallel twins, it also designed and built many other layouts, including V-twins, a whole family of two-strokes and even an inline three-cylinder.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In \u003cstrong\u003eRoyal Enfield – The Complete Story\u003c\/strong\u003e, best-selling author \u003cem\u003eMick Walker\u003c\/em\u003e reveals the successes gained by the marque in competition, from trials and scrambling to road racing and even record breaking.
