The sad thing is that it has more air miles than driving miles on the motor. Less thn 2000 miles on the motor when we we shipped it to Villiers.

i well remember my lightweight ajs was reckoned by my mates to have done more miles in the back of a friends pick up than on its own . he used to pick me up when it broke down  :)

I don't imagine its break would have been cheap including airfare . I always mean to pop in for a kipper tie when passing

With so few of these motors left, we did not want to let just anybody refurbish this motor! It went First Class on DHL
