Please excuse my ignorance but what is “the Brighton bike”?
Quote from: Allington on October 01, 2018, 04:15:39 PMPlease excuse my ignorance but what is “the Brighton bike”?No worries. It was one of four pre-production prototypes, two of which were at the Motorcycle show held in Brighton in 1969. The one at the event was the gold one, the other was was green and nobody I believe, knows where it is or if indeed it still exists.see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EszC7DBt-XU
YLY 70H's VIN is 1015262 so just under 5000 VIN's after ours Mick. I got this info from the Bonhams auction catalogue.
I have 1015280 (AYO 63H) and 1015278 (AYO 64H) - both sold from the same dealership and I suspect part of the batch that the press bike came across with..
