I'm trying to find a buyer for the following. No pictures due to 'technophobia' but will be soon or can text them. It's a friends bike. Here is the info I have so far.
Royal Enfield G Series 350 Bullet 1956. Pre Unit. Last made 1942. Cast iron engine. Apparently only 28 in the country. It runs, is complete, but just needs battery, tyres & oil change. It was painted after WW2. The side panels are orange, my friend painted the tank black. No sidecar. It's mechanical, no electrics. Have registration, all receipts. Please let me know if interested. If not, I'm wondering if anyone has any information as to how much it's worth. Be very grateful for any info. Thank a lot.

Pamster, you need to tell us more for an opinion. It can't be both a Model G and a Bullet (they are different models,) and is it registered in 1942 or 1956? In either case I doubt it is one of only 28, the Bullet and G are much, much, more numerous than that. We'll need pics and some other info, what are the engine and frame numbers (including any prefixes,) for instance? We have some knowledgeable folk on here so I'm sure we can get you an answer!
REgards, Mark

Poor guy, knocking his rare bike. I'm sure it's genuine!




While we are on the subject, I am selling George Fornby's ladder bike as used in the film, "When I'm cleaning windows." Pic enclosed.

Mechanical bike with no electrics - but requires a battery. Maybe this battery will suffice.
