I am the owner of a Belgian motorcycle of the mark Ready with engine Villiers 125cc Mk 9D.
I know 3 other motorcycles Ready in Belgium and the numbers of engine begin all with 640/.....
The Ready factory made only motorcycles from 1926 till 1940, but the number on the motor is 640/22380. Normally de pre-war engines have a letters (AAA) and post war engines have a number (000).
May be different numbers are used by Villiers for a production outside the Great Britain or production under licence in Belgium?
Because the Belgian factory Ready did not exist any more after the war and thus it is not possible to put a post war Villiers motor.
Also knowing that my motorcycle is of origin and has sudden no transformations or repairs (driving replacement)
Which could inform me about the date of manufacture of this engine?
