I believe that this was the bike that GRA member Chris Brown rode to India! See Leading Link 169, Feb 2013, page 17.
He sold it on and it then it got 'restored' and painted green! The then owner was quite adamant that it left the factory that colour but when Chris got it, it was blue and it was blue in Bert Greeves ISDT pictures.
It found it's way into the Birmingham motorcycle museum and apparently was consumed in the fire. See page 42 of Bob Currie's guide to competition bikes in the museum.

NMM ISDT Greeves
In the late eighties, early nineties the club committee met regularly at the NMM. Indeed, we held 1 or 2 AGM there. A spin off to our use was free access to the museum. As I recall this bike had no frame number and was a non running representation of the original. The fire destroyed so many bikes. A very sad time. Many bikes were rebuilt as representations.
