Title: WB40
Post by: Digger on 03 Nov, 2018, 19:19
I'm looking for a project bike.
I was offered a Royal Enfield but it was one heck of a project
So now I've seen a B40. Are they any good? This one's Green I was going to change it RAF blue as I'm ex RAF.
Any advice welcome.

There is a web site dedicated to the War Department B40 bikes.Google it - I cannot remember the exact site address.
It is a mine of info and resources.

I've got one, and love it.
Not the fastest, esp with the trials gearbox, but sit happily at 50'ish MPH all day long, start easily, sip petrol, and handle nicely.
I won't be selling mine
