Dave, its not good to put frame & engine numbers in the public domain, but in this case, people having this info will help identify it & also render the parts worthless to sell on, hope this helps...dave.

Many Thanks Dave. Yes, identity theft is the least of our worries. I restored the bike for a retired gent to enjoy. I have the engine and frame numbers, but maybe not worth posting at this point?
Thanks for your help

Most certainly worth posting frame & engine numbers now as with Newark show coming up this weekend the frame & engine may turn up there as autojumble.
Members going could keep a look out

No problem Dave I have also posted it on the IKBA Forum for you, quite a few members on there go to shows. The more people looking the better. Hope it turns up in one piece.
