[QUOTE="Monkeypants, post: 110225, member: 2708"] No idea, the bike came from Australia. The engine was supposed to have had a full Terry Prince rebuild with just 10,000 miles or so on but the elderly seller was a bit hazy on details. It turned out that the top end was pretty tired but the bottom end had as new rod side wobble, so the cases were left together. The engine got a complete new top end, low expansion pistons, Honda chrome rings, Terry's liners, Kemps tuftrided valves, John's lead free gas type seats, guides, RD springs, Terry's long rocker bearings etc and had some work done in the timing chest as well. They could be Terry's cams and followers, just not sure. Before the elderly fellow had it another Ozzie, a young guy, had it as sole transport for ten years. It was his daily rider plus he crossed the continent on it several times on Holiday. It did a huge mileage in OZ. Before that it ran around Scotland, before that England and before that , the Isle of Malta. Poor thing has never had a rest in 72 years! Glen [/QUOTE]
