Bullet 70th Anniversary

Hello to all Bullet owners,

Next year is the 70th birthday of the first production Bullet and this is to be the focal point of the Founders day rally held at Stanford Hall near Lutterworth, on the 20 / 21st July 2019. The Mid - Shires branch of the REOC is hosting this and we are hoping to get 100 Bullets present over the weekend. I realise that it is a long way off but we are looking at the prospect of getting one model from each year on display. If you own a Bullet and would be interested in displaying it at the rally then would you please contact us so we can get some idea of the possibility of achieving our goal on the day. We realise this is a big ask but if you have a bullet 1949 to 2019 and want to be part of a great parade highlighting the longest production run of any Motorcycle - please get in touch.

Wayne the Works Rep is built 1959, so 60 model year and the BH is a 61. The Ebay Bullet ia an alternative, (it's certainly different!) that's a1955 350. REgards, Mark
