Long shot
has anyone got a rusty old motorbike that they'd be glad to see the back of? Particularly a free rusty old bike.
....or would consider trading for a 1600 CVH (stripped and ready for rebuild).

A bit of slapstick never hurt anyone.

Well seeing as its a stripped Engine...
I have a stripped 1954 Matchless G3LS, with almost another one for spares.
I'll swap it all for a Locost or simmilar.
One of the 3 frames is shotblasted and powder coated. The forks have been re bushed, and there is a new swinging arm pin and bushes ready to go in.
A half or nearly fully built Locost, or a fully finished Caterham (on the road Taxed and tested), will get you a Lot of matchless bits!.
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards
Geoff

Keep meaning to make the effort and take that trip, abiding memory of Sammy is at the Sheffield indoor arena trial a few years back, more hair than me
(by far), seventies evel kneivel syle white leather jacket with "Miller" on the back, and a young girlie on his arm. He's da man.
