ROYAL ENFIELD 1952-1963 700cc METEOR 700, SUPER METEOR & CONSTELLATION FACTORY WORKSHOP MANUALS

206 pages and more than 180 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This Workshop Manual is appropriate for the entire line of 1952 through 1963 Royal Enfield 700cc models. It will also be of use to owners of the 700cc USA (only) Interceptor and the Enfield Indian 700cc Apache, Trailblazer and Chief. A compilation of two factory manuals, it includes the original 1955 'Meteor 700' workshop manual for the 1952 to 1955 models and the later workshop manual for the 1955 to 1963 'Super Meteor' and 'Constellation'. PRODUCTION DETAILS: Due to a number of different reasons, there is some confusion surrounding production details, as it is a known fact that the engine and frame numbering procedure did not follow a consistent pattern and, at times, was somewhat random. As the 'Meteor 700' shared many of its mechanical components with the '500 Twin', the earlier manual is appropriate for both of these models. Royal Enfield was very adept at utilizing components across their entire model line and this 'sharing' carried over into their workshop manuals. Consequently, many of the sections and illustrations are identified as being appropriate for various models and not necessarily specific to the particular model referenced in the manual title. The second manual is much more specific to the 'Super Meteor' and 'Constellation' models and the only noticeable 'shared' pages are the carburetter settings table and the lighting, frame and special tools sections. In order to help identify the subtle differences between the various models, the reader is encouraged to review any of the appropriate sections in order to eliminate the possibility of referencing an incorrect 'shared' section.
