January 23, 201313 yr HiPlease can anyone help. I am trying to identify the bike in the photo.It was ridden by G Naylor during a trial held somewhere in the Yorkshire Dales during the 1950s.The exhaust looks quite distinctive but as a non motorcycle person I am struggling. My Dad (The dashing young cove in the photo) is 85 next week and we are trying to arrange a surprise for the big day.Any help appreciated.Thank you Edited January 23, 201313 yr by itti olly
January 23, 201313 yr It looks more like an old James based on the tank and exhaust system. Does it have a rigid end?
January 23, 201313 yr looks like a bitsa looks like a 197cc Villiers engine,and looks like the Scott trial
