Identify these bikes! / Re: Help identifying this bike please

Does it really matter what colour the porridge is? At my age I am happy to be still riding.

Maybe, but all the four strokes with similar frames (eg Model B) had the kickstart on the right with the muffler. Have seen other brands of small twostrokes with muffler on left too. I have put mine on the right so that I can get to the chain for maintence. Using an Enfield kickstarter it clears the pipe fine.

Could anybody please tell me why they put the muffler on the left side? Was this to hide the 'dirty' chain or to just make it more difficult to lubricate/adjust?

Are they anything special?
Most Japanese trail bikes have a 21" x 36 spoke front rim, cannot help with the 19" x 40.

Very good advice from Cardan. Give it a try Joe and see how you go.
We are all maybe a little mad for taking on these sort of projects, but it is much better than spending all day in the pub and having nothing to show for it other than a headache.
