this was owned and built by a late friend
it has been under an old cover for about 15yrs
we managed to salvage the front end and the motor
which is now at Readspeed having a full rebuild

Woah! looks a bit in sorry state
Was it under cover under trees?
Good luck with the build, looking forward to see more

it was a proper race scoot, i don't think he raced it in these colours, it used to be satin black then yellow, his name was Giles Oxenham no72
and raced for s.a.s.r.t

What spec is the engine, or rather what will it be when Jerome has finished fettling it?
