I like a bike with "not lights".
I had a couple of trail bikes in the 1980's with no lights MOT that I used to Green Lane with the TRF. Cheers Don. |

Hi Don, I liked that too, however if someone wanted to add lights it’s a simple job to add them, I’ve had a few bikes but this is very easy on the eye everyone who has seen it says how lovely it is and in fact it was a very advanced bike for the time so as well as a looker it is also a very competent bike cheers Paul

If I had the cash burning a hole in my pocket, I'd buy it from you in a flash. It looks superb. Good luck with the sale.

I searched for along time for the right bike as there are very few that are matching numbers
Just for info, there is a good reason for that. At that time it was not common practice to match the engine and chassis numbers. BSA, for instance, did not routinely do so until 1969. |

Hi Thanks for the comments i Should of mentioned by matching no’s I meant the original numbers are matching therefore it hasn’t had an engine swap, it is as it left the factory in sept 1959 cheers Paul ps the number plate is of no interest to me to remove however I did enquire purely to get a valuation when I decided to sell the bike and was quoted well over half the price of the bike by regtranfers cheers Paul

Hi and a big thank you to Martin I have got the bike out this morning and have taken a short video and added more pics after a couple of requests, I also forgot to add that it has the tool tube fitted as well the picture of the tank does show a few marks but there are no dents just light marks, I have just been out for a very pleasant ride on it and can confirm that it rides absolutely faultlessly cheers Paul ps Tash has just put the video at the bottom

Hi the good lady has just done her magic and here is the video, please excuse my attire as I’m on a gardening/odd jobs day as can be seen I’ve held the manifold purely to show it’s starting from cold cheers Paul

What a lovely looking bike, if finances allow, when work returns to normal for me, I may well be interested. No use to you now I know!
