  • Forgotten pics

    Can anyone date or identify the bike in these photos? I got them some years ago by a round-about source, but I believe they came from the American "Craig's List". I tried to follow-up the link on the advert, but have had no reply.

    Web links to other sites that could be of use to Greeves owners and enthusiasts, such as parts suppliers or personal websites.

      ISDT Greeves / Mike Browne

      Looks like owner Mike Browne (and the bike) are in California USA http://www.cubsite.com/cubforum/memb...er=Mike+Browne
      So presumably one of the 24 IN *** ISDT replicas that were sold out there.
      I wonder if Mike Browne was the 'Craigs List' seller or if he bought it from there. Maybe one of our stateside members know of him & the bike & whats happened to it.
      Could this be the Mike Browne in question a Californian speedway rider http://www.speedwaybikes.com/rw/umike_br.htm

        ISDT Greeves / Mike Browne

        From the links Brian has put up it looks like Mike Brown may be the current owner. I have emailed Mike to see if he still has the bike & if so invited him to come on board here & tell us a bit more about it, I am sure some of our members could help him with bits, advice etc. Never know we may gain another member.

          The email has bounced so the email address given mbrowne@dragbike.com is no longer valid. The other email listed in his profile mikeb@teleset.co is also not valid.

              Have also tried to email the web site owner Trevor Hanna at
              tal@kivas.com but that email address is dead as well. Strange

                  No problem, but it shows that parts were borrowed across the range to make "special builds" like ISDT bikes.

                    The bike in the pics I understand is now in the ownership of our USA member Kenny, maybe he will come on board & bring us up to speed on it.
