I rode the NC 500 riding over 860 miles in 3 days on my Royal Enfield Classic 350, from Dunbar in East Lothian, joining the NC500 route at Spey Bridge and road a clockwise direction with two nights camping, The 350 was perfect up on the highland roads and returning over 100 mpg!,
This first of 3 films covers the west coast from Spean Bridge to Durness,
Pt 2 of 3 will cover the North section of the route, Durness to Dunnet Head,
And Pt 3 will cover the east coast section returning to Spey Bridge.
Below are some links from previous visits and blog posts on places of interest worth a stop at for a look around on the west side of the NC 500,

Great wee film Bruce. The commando memorial was sculpted by Scott Sutherland, who taught my mother when she was at dundee art school. She was one of his favourite pupils and let her sculpt the left boot of the front soldier.

At 83, my wife will not permit another bike, sadly. I could just go out and buy one but, she would be really worried so; l just enjoy RE blogs , like yours, Warros and Uncle Stu Fillingham. I shal just remain envious. Stay safe !!

The price of a new Royal Enfield 350 is more than whyI paid for my whole collection of my BSA 250 singles. With the roads you have it is easy to see Why the British motorcycles were 250-500 singles and 500-650 twins for so long. The motorcycles were perfectly suited for the roads and the weather. Cheap and cheerful as they used to say. Thanks for taking us along with you.

Fantastic Bruce. Reminds me of the Cape Breaton Highlands in Nova Scotia. My stepfather was a Matheson. He served in the merchant marines out of Halifax NS during the war running supplies to England. Mini subs and the sinking of the Bismark are indeed a huge part of WWII history. I believe there is a mini sub wreck at Aberlady Bay. The RE is certainly chewing up those roads. Can't wait for the rest of the menu ! Cheers 🥃

Just discovered your channel as I’m looking at an RE350 myself. Really good stuff and enjoying your vids. The wee bothy at Sand Applecross was Monty Halls’ Great Escape. 👍

Beautiful...like being in another world. Only really driven some of those roads then walked the hills but hoping to do it all on my bicycle one day. Lochcarron: my bestie found a ceremonial bronze axe head down by the shore when she was just 12 years old. Its now in the museum in Inverness. Looking forward to the next part!

Hi, thanks, looking at the prices of WW2 despatch soaring and the reality of daily riding an 80 year old bike I thought I would diy a new Classic 350 and get most of the looks with the added ease of use for daily transport 👍 from a distance only the disc brakes give it away, A 500 Bullet would be even better looking for a despatch bike but they too are going up in price now they have stopped making them, Cheers Bruce

Nice to ride along with you on the REC350 while you ride the NC500, and enjoy your enthusiasm (the low cloud is a feature, not a fault). 🙂

Hi Alex yes the cloud is indeed a feature and I should not moan about it!, it does add to the atmosphere 😁👍 Cheers Bruce

Hi the silencer is a shorter stubby bottle silencer I bought cheap on eBay for about £50 posted from India, it’s a bit louder but not too loud to spook horses etc 😁👍

Hi Bruce. Great vid. Done the 500 in the wifes little MX5. We prefered the west side to the east but still a great journey I'm down sizing from my Vulcan vn900 and the little Enfield classic 350 has really caught my eye . Mainly as im an old school rider and like chrome and burnished alloy. Only one question mate IYO now its run in whats its sweet spot for cruising ? As I've heard various views . Thanks in advance Happy riding . Lee

@Coastriderscotland Год назад
Hi Lee the 350 Classic is sweet between 50 and 60 in top gear but I offer sit at 65mph and if does not feel stressed at that, as a A and B road bike it’s perfect, I did short motorway sections on M90 going up and heading home and it handled it ok as the inside lane was not going too quick, you will not be disappointed with the bike , it’s a mindset attitude that you will have coming from older bikes 👍😁 Cheers Bruce

@Lee-70ish Год назад
@@Coastriderscotland Thanks mate that sounds perfect for me even on my 900 I rarely go beyond 65 max and mainly 55 on A/B roads ( hate motorways, boring) so 55/60 will do me fine I think some people are not realistic about these retro bikes and the market they are aimed at.
