craig10 Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 (edited) It's been on eBay twice over Christmas, there was a spat between the owner and others as there's almost nothing original on the bike and the frame in particular has been changed to an Indian Enfield but retained the original reg, not sure how they got away with that one! This isn't any secret, the owner seemed honest enough with the description but a couple of folk took umbrage that he was advertising it as a pre-65 bike.

b40rt Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I think you mentioned this, but isnt the age of the bike taken from the frame rather than the engine ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig10 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 yes, but somehow the frame has been changed to a modern Indian Enfield frame and still kept the original reg no, not sure how you could do that without grinding off the frame number and stamping the old frame number on the new one.
