No mate i worked in gloucester branch with old Mr Mead in charge.
I distinctly remember old Mr Tomkinson being killed, he was living in france and had been for some time when one day turned the wrong way out of his drive and went head on car to car.
I did get to touch the Kawasaki "Nessie" when it came to glos with an alternator problem
Laverda Dave:
Didn't they also build the Laverda engine 'Nessie'. Were they a Laverda dealer?
