Mistake!

in my earlier post i quoted Gerald ( the motorbike) as a 250cc C12, but just now, looking through some old manuals i found i have realised he is infact a 175cc D3 from 1956, sorry for the mistake!!

Poppy's friend Gerald


When i moved in to my new house, i inherited a 1950's BSA C12 Motorbike, it has a 250cc engine and a horn, the engine needs a complete rebuild and i will do that in the winter, ready for my 17th birthday.
