如何在python中仅提取字符串的指定部分

Question

I have a situation where one of my column is bike name that contains value like RoyalEnfeild Classic 350 I want only the company name ie RoyalEnfeild to be replace in that column.

so that all the values of that particular column should be changed with the new string

For example:

old table is like --

Bike Name 
RoyalEnfeild Classic 350
RoyalEnfeild Classic 350
KTM dUKE 390

NEW Table

Bike Name
RoyalEnfeild
RoyalEnfeild 
KTM 

I am new to python can anyone help me with the answer ?

For this example try:

 df['Bike Name'].str.extract('(\w+)')

0  RoyalEnfeild
1  RoyalEnfeild
2           KTM
