G2 1961 new purchase

Post by Richard Hyatt »

hi all,

just purchased a(what I believe to be) 1961 G2. Engine No 61/G2 10529 and Frame No 15174.

just making lists of what I need for it - but I know I need a kickstart lever and off side footrest and the cover that goes over the gearbox adjusters for sure. Any suggestions please for these parts would be welcome.

going to convert to 12volts , so will have the various 6 volt parts for sale eventually if anyone needs them.

look forward to speaking(metaphorically) to lots of knowledgeable people on this forum. Thank you in advance.

Richard

Welcome Richard.
There was a recent thread on this forum ref the k/start which may be of interest, if you haven't already seen it. I understand that they not only differ model to model but are also very scarce. Have a look here:
