vintage/80's pics.

rave would like these last 3 ?

 

Thanks for the British stuff.

The Beezer is in an early Trackmaster frame. The AJ looks to be a stocker, and I'm not sure about the Norton. Some of the frame elements look Trackmaster, but there is no backbone/down tube for the oil-in-frame (instead it is a remote oil tank), and I don't think Trackmaster put the rear brake boss on the swing arm plates like that.

Good stuff. Thanks again for keeping us all entertained. Despite the plethora of great photos, I know you have a finite number, and some day this will end. But, for now, it is a constant joy.

Cheers,

Dave

 

The tank on the Norton looks like the ones fitted to Fritz Egli's bikes and I think they were oil in frame. However I'm not sure where the oil tank is on that bike.

Albert Bold, owner of Bold Precision Incorporated, in Phoenixville, PA-? He goes back to the early-mid '80s in WERA and I believe he won a WERA National Championship on his MV…I grew up not too far from his family's machine shop when they were located in the Germantown section of Philly…the shop made good money in WWII making M1 and M2 carbine parts. Very good machinists, as you would expect from Germans.

But maybe this MV is not his- anyone remember?
