These maybe stupid question's but...they have be to asked...
Does it go?
Is it registered? if not, do you any ownership history in case someone wants to re VIN it.
Does it have a warrant?

it goes, would need to go throung the VIN, you would get cheep REG coz of the age. I have vined a few very old bikes, with no problem, it still has a numberplate but no papers.

As my old man used to say, and probably still does, bantams were a piece of shit when they were new and time hasn't been kind. Ain't no way they are worth that amount of money.

First 4 speeds were 1966. Got engine and frame numbers ? Got proof on transfer from last registered owner? (eg receipts, etc) . Do you know what year it was last registered?

I will have to check that, I think you are right, might be a 3 speed. I don't ride it much.

The last registered owner is dead, its a 1958. was last registered in 1977.

I've been thinking of a Bantam lately - it would be better than a scooter,and pretty reliable to someone who knows about them (my wife can strip down a Bantam and put it together blindfolded).PM me your price range,so I don't insult you in public.
