Hello Nigel , I had an old 500four honda in a box section frame , with a book shaped tank that opened up in to the electrics box , it was"suppose" to be a Bunt frame the number didn`t start UB but started BAK was this a Bunt .
I know the company got sold a few times with a mix of different Bunt frames coming out of them .
It would be nice to no , just because really .
Thanks for taking the time to read this and for any help . I no the UK was full of one off builders at the time so I no this might have just been someone's way of bigging up the bikes history.
Cheers Baz

Every December the LPMCC.net Home Page retells the story of that Christmas.


Another cold snap


Do you fancy casting a "Limited Edition" set of belt buckles for the club's 50th Jubilee next year?

Nigel, I've just added a brass belt buckle to the LPMCC.net regalia page. Was it you who cast them back in the late 70s? I'd like to get the right person. Also was it your red pickup that carried Santa John Beccles to the childrens' home at Christmas 1979? You can reply via LPMCC.net.
