Hi folks,
Hope you lads and lasses can give me some general guidance....my apologies in advance if this post rambles on a bit.
I'm thinking about getting into classic motorcycles and learning what makes them tick and how to look after them and maybe getting hands on stripping and fettling etc
I think it's mainly spurred on by seeing a friends father finally restore a beza B31 to its former glory....what a smashing looking machine it is.
I have spotted a RE Model G from 1952 coming up for auction at the H&H national motorcycle museum (lot number 66).
It looks like a very nice machine.
So...am I going bonkers ? Secondly... what's the overall spares availability like for model Gs ? Also, are there any UK based owners clubs that could support me in this ? And finally is a machine like this a suitable bike for a novice to get stuck in with ?
Your guidance and advice is greatly appreciated.
