Despatched from the factory on the 20th July 1962 to READS GARAGE Machynlleth . The bike was purchased from READS in September 1962 by Mr Davey Roberts (from Machynlleth) who used his ‘demob money’ when he left the army to buy the bike.

bike unused in a shed a few miles away. The bike remained there
