Overview

Introducing the 2018 Enfield Custombike Dirty Duck, a striking example of rugged design and performance in the enduro-offroad category. This motorcycle is tailored for adventurous riders who crave the thrill of the open trail while maintaining a unique aesthetic appeal. With its distinctive styling and robust construction, the Dirty Duck stands out in a market saturated with cookie-cutter models. It captures the essence of off-road exploration, offering a blend of classic charm and modern engineering that is sure to attract both seasoned bikers and newcomers alike. At the heart of the Dirty Duck lies a potent 535cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers an impressive 29.10 horsepower at 5,100 RPM and a robust torque of 44 Nm at 4,000 RPM. This combination ensures a responsive ride, allowing for spirited acceleration and smooth power delivery regardless of the terrain. The air-cooled engine is paired with a 5-speed gearbox, providing the versatility needed for both urban commuting and off-road escapades. The digital electronic ignition and fuel injection system enhance efficiency and performance, ensuring that the Dirty Duck is as reliable as it is thrilling, whether you're climbing hills or cruising along dirt paths. The Dirty Duck doesn't just deliver on performance; it also boasts a host of key features and technology designed for the adventurous spirit. Its twin downtube cradle frame offers excellent stability, while the telescopic 41mm front forks and Paioli twin gas-charged shock absorbers with adjustable preload ensure a comfortable ride over rugged terrain. Stopping power is provided by Brembo's single disc front brakes, delivering confidence when tackling steep descents or sudden stops. With an electric starter and kick-start option, the Dirty Duck is ready to roll at a moment's notice, and its unique snorkel design allows for deeper water crossings without compromising engine performance. **

Pros

  • Versatile Performance: The engine provides a great balance of power and torque, making it suitable for both on-road and off-road adventures.
  • Sturdy Suspension: The adjustable rear shock absorbers and quality front forks enhance ride comfort and handling on rough terrains.
  • Unique Aesthetic: The Dirty Duck’s distinctive design and color options stand out, appealing to riders who value style as much as performance.

Cons

  • Weight: At 198 kg (436.5 lbs), it may feel a bit heavy for novice riders, especially when navigating tight trails.
  • Seat Height: With a seat height of 800 mm (31.5 inches), it might be less accessible for shorter riders, potentially limiting its appeal.
  • Limited Fuel Capacity: The 13.5-litre fuel tank may require more frequent refueling during long off-road rides, which could disrupt the adventure.
