can i get a close up of the motor covering up any markings of coarse cheers

Paul: Your close, real close. The bike was a direct competitor of the Mustang. Jeff Bar

It isn't a Mustang.
They were side valve engines with both the intake port/valve (with the carb attached), and the exhaust port/valve, facing the front of the bike.
Jeff's bike doesn't have a forward facing carb.
I originally thought it was some kind of Cushman, but quickly discarded that concept.
I'm a bit stumped at the moment.
This is a great general knowledge brain teaser......

scrambler · « **Reply #12 on:** January 30, 2012, 09:28:37 PM »

Yep that's a whitewall, quite common in the 60's.
