Couldn't get the Greaves for the "right" price - typical tight old Norfolk boy!:sad7:

Still looking for a pre-65 trials mount...

Although my brother (lover of Americana) rather unhelpfully suggested I shouldn't waste my cash on an ancient British bike and building a Harley special. I told him to F-off, but then he sent me a link to an image, which I have to say is not at all bad, in fact very nice indeed... erm... I wonder... :eusa_think:

Nice bike - quite a special beast that as it's got a Faber frame. (BTW it's actually a BSA C15 engine and forks! ;) )

That's nice too, very well specced, someone must have spent a fair wedge building it. Bet it's got a hefty reserve? Unfortunately not sure it'd be eligible for pre-65 trials though! ;)

I knew it was a BSA engine (because tripletom told me as we were looking at it). Beyond that I just went "ooh, shiny, want". :D
