I have been working on this project for many years:- Overview of Bike. Please refer to all pictures as they form the better part of the discription. The Castle forks front blades are new and have skillfully fitted to the front forks. These type of forks were fitted to many vintage bikes in the 1920's ranging from Zenith to Brough's. The rear blades are original. Both guards are also new as the orginal pair were to bad to rebuild, there are made to the correct profile. The engine is a J.A.P. v-twin 680 cc, and OHV.
