Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 in the “Timeless” colorway Royal Enfield launches into the EV market with the announcement of its new sub-brand, Flying Flea. Under this brand, the classic-styled Flying Flea C6 motorcycle is said to come on the market by the spring of 2026, followed by the scrambler-styled Flying Flea S6.  Technical details about these two electric motorcycles are sparse for now, but Royal Enfield has stated that it has invested funds in Stark Future, the Barcelona-based manufacturer of electric off-road bikes. The company has also stated it has begun development of an EV manufacturing plant in Chennai, India, and that all aspects of the new electric bikes are being developed in-house by Royal Enfield engineers in India and the U.K.  Related: 2025 Royal Enfield Bear 650 Review Flying Flea gets its name from a Royal Enfield model from the 1940s, and it’s meant to highlight the city-focused bikes’ light weight and agility, although specific figures like weight have not been announced.  “Flying Flea combines distinctive style, city-focused practicality, and cutting-edge technology,” said Royal Enfield CEO B. Govindarajan. “This is the start of a fresh, sustainable ride for us and offers the world an elegant, effective, and sustainable everyday transportation.”  The first model to be produced under the new brand will be the Flying Flea C6, which takes design inspiration from the WWII-era model. The forged aluminum girder fork is a key aspect of this classic-inspired styling. It will also feature a visually distinctive forged aluminum frame and a magnesium battery case.   Royal Enfield says the C6 will be equipped with a round touchscreen cluster. The central vehicle control unit is said to offer more than 200,000 ride-mode combinations, monitor the bike to alert the rider if it’s moved, and accept over-the-air updates. The brand also claims the new EV will be equipped with lean-angle-sensitive ABS and cruise control.  Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 in “Heritage” colorway That’s all we know for now, and we’ll continue to share news and updates as they become available.  Visit the Royal Enfield website for more information.  Check out more new bikes in Rider’s 2025 Motorcycle Buyers Guide  The post Royal Enfield Announces Flying Flea Electric Motorcycle Brand appeared first on Rider Magazine.

Melania Trump has declined to attend a White House meeting with Jill Biden. “She ain’t going,” a source told the New York Post. “Jill Biden’s husband authorized the FBI snooping through her underwear drawer.

New: Melania Trump has declined invitation to meet with Jill Biden during President-elect Trump's Wednesday White House visit. pic.twitter.com/QAciUchzWM — The Calvin Coolidge Project (@TheCalvinCooli1) November 11, 2024 From the New York Post: Melania visited the White House following her husband’s 2016 election win and received a tour from then- first lady Michelle Obama. After Trump lost his re-election bid in 2020, he failed to invite the Bidens to the White House before the Democrat officially assumed office, breaking the decades-old tradition, according to reports at the time. The Post has reached out to the Trump campaign and the White House about Melania’s decision to skip the meeting. The FBI raided Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in August 2022 in its probe of the 45th president’s withholding of classified White House documents. Melania, 54, has previously voiced her displeasure over the raid at their Palm Beach, Florida, mansion.

BREAKING: President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald Trump will meet in the Oval Office on Wednesday, the White House says. https://t.co/IB04ceE7xO — The Associated Press (@AP) November 9, 2024 Per CNN: Jill Biden extended Melania Trump the customary invitation last week as her husband also invited the president-elect to the Oval Office, a symbolic gesture to show the country and the world that there will be a peaceful transition of power – and an implicit rebuke of Donald Trump, who refused Joe Biden the same meeting in 2020 as he contested that election’s results. The two are set to meet Wednesday at 11 a.m., according to the White House. There was discussion about encouraging Melania Trump to come to Washington for the meeting, as some members of the president-elect’s team felt it was important. But the incoming first lady, who spent her first four years in office redefining the role and what was expected, is laying an early marker indicating she will have even more autonomy the second time around. Aside from 2020, it has been tradition for the current first lady to host the incoming first lady at the White House. In 2016, then-first lady Michelle Obama hosted Melania Trump for tea in the White House’s Yellow Oval Room and took her on a tour of the private residence.
