Good day everyone!
I have recently acquired a 52 Comet, a UK bike delivered to Kings originally and passed through a few hands since but not that many were club members.
So I thought I would drop the question here if anyone knew any of the prior owners or had an recollection of the bike....the never know the power of this social media thing, it is worth a shot, thanks for the consideration.
I am looking for any prior history, photos or owners of a 1952 Comet, SWL 567.
E.W. Hudson (VOC member), Oxforshire 1954
George Kinross (non VOC), Oxfordshire 1966
Alexander Gordon Kinnes (non VOC), Stirling 1972
Peter Benda (non VOC), London 1990-1997
Melvyn Cousins (non VOC), Greytree Ross-On-Wye 1997-1998
Sale by Bill Little Motorcycles 1999 (retired 2016)
Exported from UK to Toronto by Geofrey Lewis (VOC member) 2000-2013
Leslie Binnell, (prior owner non VOC) Toronto 2013-2018
Exported to US/Texas by myself, new custodian.
I have corresponded with the machine registrar, Simon has been quite helpful.
Cheers
