Royal Endfield, (Royal oil fields) for those of us that owned them when they were made in England.. The KLR Kaw will have more power, be a better road bike as well. Also cost more money. They are both "Swiss Army Knife" bikes. They will do anything but nothing particularly well. Almost bought an Interceptor, but found a pristine K75s. A Cockroach for those that know. (what will still be moving after Armageddon).
