The plate on the white one are my brother in laws initials. If you ever want to sell feel free to give me a shout and I can ask him if he's interested for you.

I had a similar Raleigh used to go from Wigan to Sheffield on it, though not on a daily basis!
On the  one I had the engine pivoted so that the belt drive was variable, you could get up to some daft speeds downhill over the Penines.
The thing that used to catch me out sometimes was at the petrol station. If you don't have much petrol in then make sure you put the oil in after filling up.
The tank is angled down so much that the oily mix just sits at the bottom of the tank and goes straight into the carb and it then won't start.
To start the bike you put it on it's centre stand and just pedal a bit to turn it over (just like a kickstart really).

Mine eventually got stolen, I'd bought it off my uncle Jack for a tenner when he got too old to ride it.

The white one is still purring. The red one however  some fuckin interbred farmer has made a right bollox of it. I can mend it easy enough, but getting the parts has been a pita and they will take another week to come. If a gasket fails over here they just take it off
