This is a very rare classic motorcycle as it was only made in the years 1936 and 1937; although registered as a 1937 it is actually a 1936 as it has original external leaf-springs (the 1937 model had internal leaf-springs).
The engine is a 250cc Villiers twin-port single cylinder 2 stroke, engine rebuilt replacing piston and rings, big end and crank bearings.
It has a 3 speed Albion gearbox and a rebuilt Lucas dynamo.
All lights are working; hi and lo on headlamp and rear lamp.
It has a new 6v battery and starts easily.
The bike is very original; the only things missing are leg shields which apparently can be acquired through the owner's club.
As a classic historic vehicle it is both road tax and MOT exempt.
it attracts a lot of attention due to its rarity; most comments being that external leaf-springs are really unusual.

Viewing highly recommended ( L@@Ks Bonkers in real life )

P. S I have just been out for a ride on this petrolium propelled machine and i must admit i was blown away and had a big smile on my face when i returned back to my shop. Ha Ha Ha absolute fun i must say old chap.

By the way the nice old boy in the second picture is one of my neighbours who is 94 and was born in 1923, he said i rememeber when they came out when i was a kid and that they were rare and different then.
