The Royal Enfield JAP

As with most Motorcycle manufacturers during the initial boom year of 1928, the Royal Enfield factory also produced their "Speedway-special".

In common with many models of that period, the Enfield came with abundance of strutting.

Dick Tolley won the first grasstrack championship in 1951 with a winning speed of 61.65mph on the 1,600yds Mallory Park circuit on an Enfield/Jap (27).
