Hang on a minute...



I sent a question to the seller on this a couple of days ago and they have not responded, oh, except the item description now just says Classic Royal Enfield

The cycle parts are obviously modern but the only way to tell if the frame is 65 is to see the number. By 65 the frames were Madras 'in house' so had the cross bolt above the gearbox just like modern ones. To get a C plate requires some original cycle parts like the forks and half width front and back hubs, the engine actually scores low and doesn't matter much. There's no pics of the left side engine which, if original, would have the early breather with fins running lower, along with maybe dual EI and G2 engine numbers running vertically. Looks like someone's bought an old number for a modern bike but we don't really know without checking the frame number and docs.

I don't think the number plate is age related (i have an age related plate on my 1957 B31 it has 3 alphabet letters on top and 3 numbers below em) I think this one has been re registered with a plate which don't identify its age or year, ie a K reg = 1972. just a thought.

Ah! It's this one again!
