martinm Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Just the wanderings of a poor memory , but did I see somewhere a picture of a Saracen with a Bantam motor in it ? A friend of mine sold one at Telford last year, it was just a rolling chasis with Bantam crankcases...so they do exist, but sadly no photo.

trialsrooster Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Thanks all , I guess that wasn't something I dreamed up after too much whiskey at the campfire. I had the last Wassell Bantam produced , how it got to the US I don't know , nobody over here had a clue what it was other than they thought it was a Penton that we put an odd motor in Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victor1 Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 Hi Trialsrooster, just curious as to how you knew that you had the last Wassell Bantam produced and wondered how many were actually made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordo Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Just out of curiosity, I have a Saracen frame set up for a Sachs motor. I would like to put a 175 Bantam in it. Probably a foolish question, but is this difficult to do? Hate to mess up the nickel plating with a lot of cutting and welding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
