    You hit the nail on the head when you said really loud noise. Well you are about to choose a bike for all the wrong reasons. Please refrain from this exercise. The earlier enfields (1947 to 1990) were an unweildy, leaky and unreliable lot. Just because they had the biggest displacement (350cc) and a huge metallic crankcase coupled with a legendary "dhup dhup" sound, many non-riders started weaving fantasies in their mind.

    Yes it is a capable bike but it was made for a different time and age. Unfortunately that age and time is long past. If you disagree you will also come to a similar conclusion but after a lot of expense and heartburn. The choice is yours.

    You could try a Constellation or an Interceptor.

    You'd be better off going for a Triumph Bonneville,Norton 600,BSA A10.

    Noise doesn't equal speed.You can get different types of exhaust for the bikes.If you want noise,you need 'straight through' pipes,which have no baffles.

    If you lived in the States you would be buying a Harley.

    Noise and icon status is a poor substitute for modern performance.
