Can we all just admire the scooter here in Show your Ride fellas and discuss other issues if deemed necessary in Chit Chat ;)

The LCGB run a forum where the membership can generally show off their scoots without to much negativity and id hate to think a good thread was being spoilt by a load of unnecessary chatter ;)

Lets not discourage future threads from LCGB members folks

I admired your TV1 in all of the reference pics which you sent me privately to aid my own TV1 rebuild Andy!

Studied it closely in the metal on Saturday and it really is top notch! I'm coming to the end of mine soon with the delivery of a few more parts recently!

Thanks for your help over the last couple of years!

Hi Andy, great scooter, what year is it? Wondering if the battery tray was a late addition as my series one doesn't have one but my series two does. Might need to source one.

Thanks

Budgie, its a 59 model, very late with a frame number over 200 past the official cut off figure but not registered until December 1960. If your S1 doesnt have a battery tray its likely a non battery import model, i had one like it.
Craig, youre welcome mate, the least i could do.
Eden, yes i did have it for sale during another mad moment and did have two takers, one in Thailand and another LCGB member, no names but a prolific collector with a D racer amongst many others but have decided to keep it.
Thanks for all the comments, glad you all like it. Tbh its the first ive been back to my thread and just read Martins (weeks) comments, wasnt aware of any negativity...oh well.. ;)

Andy
