    Paul you may find this thread of interest, http://www.greeves-riders.org.uk/for...ight=1975+ISDT
    looks like there is at least one in existence (NHM180P) but not knowing the registration or frame numbers its difficult to identify others. I would think few survive as complete bikes & also most of them having Army registrations would make them difficult to trace. The bikes used in the 1975 ISDT were on loan from the Royal Artillery display team, so I expect most reverted to display use or were broken for spares.

    The 380 QUB Griffon Enduro mentioned above was in H&H IWM Duxford Auction 15/4/15
    reg No NHM180P frame number 63F403 engine number GPG2316 http://www.handh.co.uk/buy/1975-gree...n-enduro/11608
    according to DVLA its not been taxed since Jan 2015. It does not have an Export marker so presumably still in UK. Does not look like it sold

    I have found another one NHM181P frame number 63IN406 but that may not survive as it was last taxed Sept 1977. Both bikes were first civilian registered on 19th May 1976, (after the 1975 ISDT), so would previously have had MoD registration numbers.
    HM was a East Ham London registration.

    Presumably Paul you still have your 61NB 380 Griffon Enduro mentioned in this thread http://www.greeves-riders.org.uk/for...ead.php?t=3946
    frame number 61NB219, reg KRC640K

      Hi John thanks for reply ,yes still have this machine , I have given it a birthday and it passed its MOT, mileage on speedo is 6764 which I would imagine is correct as the engine and gearbox were found to be in very good condition.It came new from Barrie Rodgers in Derby and I have spoken to this Gentleman which He gave me its history for its first years but then I have a gap of 21 years till 1993 from then on its history is known,John Collard also gave me the factory details.
