Might help if people know where you are in the world. I know of a frame here in Western Australia for example but no good if you're in the UK!

Kindest regards Roy Hi Roy. You can have it for the price of a pint and the postage. It's not great as I say, some fool chopped it about to make a 'custom'. But it does have a log book. I bought the whole bike just to put it out of its misery. I've kept the engine, which has crap compression. I'll send you some pictures of the frame tomorrow to see if it will be of any use to you.

My number is 07525190322. By the way there isn't an original swinging arm, the one that's with it is an aluminium box section

Wow!Ray that's not the same bike ? It looks fantastic! Did you rebuild the proper unit ? They are a fantastic bike so glad you're enjoying it to the full. I haven't touched mine since you bought that down to a whole load of personal nuts But determined to do it now .. and can't wait to ride mine again It's going to be a massive project but with a little help from other like minded people I will do this.

This is the bike who's frame you can have. I think you'll agree buying it and stripping it was the kindest thing to do.

The reg number is LKK241P Frame number 13702 First registered 19/09/75 According to the RE5 register, it's a UK blue bike.
If it's too rough for you it will eventually be going to the tip.

Beautiful, simply beautiful Bill Thanks Bill, it wasn't restored to be an exhibition piece, it's ridden regularly and still a few bits that need polishing up 😊
