Rik, there were no data plates on my bike. It had been stripped down and a "restoration" started. I think the man then ran out of money and had started selling off parts individually. I rescued it and it is now in one piece and running after buying a lot of missing/sold parts!
The engine does have various small stampings. One such is on the front above where the 2 matching halves numbers are stamped. The number is hard to define....maybe3541600 or 35-1600? The actual engine number is WM20 79787.
The other stamping found is a broad arrow below which is a capital M, below which are 419.
I would be interested if any of these marks mean anything.
Best wishes, Jon
Ron,
I tried finding that thread about the stamps for Jon, only trouble was, I couldn't remember who started it and I think that it must be about 3 years ago. I searched on Jan's posts but didn't find it.
