Ere no engine I am afraid sorry for the wrongly placed post, I have had many old bikes though BSA Gold Star and about a dozen Triumphs a few Nortons  Vincents too etc. . . . I will try and find my way to the cycle forum. Thankx . . .

back to the motorized version I have a question on frame numbers, I have a BSA B31 bare frame numbered  CB31 6791  can anyone date the frame and let me know if this is a valid number? I intend to build it into a vintage racer using a 1951 ZB34 engine (*yes I know that is a plunger engine not in a swing arm frame*) but at least the year of the frame would be nice to know.  1955?
