Only roadworthy 25DCMk2 in UK/

[John Wakefield]

This 1964 25DCMk2 (25DC331) is thought to be the only one roadworthy in the UK. It was owned by ex GRA member Keith Rudderham of Cambridge & now owned by George Darlow of Buckden. It was supplied new by Jack Hubbard Motorcycles, Braintree, Essex in November 1964 with registration GVW 127B
There are only two others known in UK, 25DC 344 (frame only & ex USA) and 25DC368 (under restoration) Five others 25DC 338, 341, 343, 392 & 394 are known in the USA. The 25DCMk2 was the blue version of the East Coaster so surprising that there are more in the USA than UK particularly as the East Coaster was supposed to be the export model. I have no East Coasters listed in the USA.

Looks a nice tidy bike, lighting switch has been fitted to side of toolbox rather than at front above the horn, otherwise looks pretty well original spec. Frame no incidentally is 61/4202 which is correct for a 1961 25DC and reg No VFF560 which is a re issued, in Nov 1984, 'age related' mark. Previous to that it was on a Q plate Q562HWX which was changed to VFF560 in April 1985
