I have joined the GRA Forum to try to help my cousin, who does not do computing. He as recently bought a 1967 Greeves MX4 Challenger. It is an American import and was apparently used for desert racing, but now it needs work to get it up and running again.
He has competed in Motorcross using contemporary bikes but is not so well acquainted with the older bikes. The acquisition of this bike has thrown up many questions and we hoped that some of you more knowledgeable persons may be able to help here.
He wondered if any details could be gleaned from the engine and frame numbers which are:
Frame:-36MX4B483
Engine:-GPB2 298
Such as how many MX4s were made; where/who the bike was first supplied to; would this engine be original to the frame?
Also the bike needs an air box and side panels and we would like to know if there is a source for these?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Dave
