Civilian History:

This 1967 model was sold to the previous owner in September 1994 via LMS (Lichfield) Ltd.

It joined the collection in October 06 in a very sorry state, having been used as daily transport for 10+ years. It required an extensive total rebuild of both cycle parts and engine.

It was returned to the road in August 07 and is still being run in.

This bike is fitted with a very late replacement GB engine.


It retains the vast majority of the original WD specification equipment, with few exceptions.
