    Not one I have come across John, although by the look of it, it has been languishing in a shed somewhere for 38 years. I don't know when I last saw a Greeves on the road in Cornwall, if ever, apart from mine.

    Why do you ask?

      Had a call from someone recently who said he had heard about the bike, it is listed on survivors list with an owner in Truro but as you say not been taxed /on the road for years. Looks like it changed owner Feb 2018, just looking to get record up to date.

        Good news that it has changed hands. Hopefully it is a project that is moving on, rather than decaying in a damp shed. It will surface at some point, with luck.

          The indication is that it is restored or at least complete and possibly roadworthy

            Excellent! Is it now in Truro, Falmouth or Redruth, do you know? I will keep an eye out for it on the Cornish roads this summer.

              The report I had was that it was now in the Flamouth Redruth area. The previoius owner (a GRA member John Lean) was in Truro, but apparently he no longer has the bike. So it could be with another member but still not on the road. stored away as a 'collectors item' I expect
