1963 Greeves Factory Road Racer

Nice one. It's an early Silverstone. Those things used to fill the grids at club races when I was a lad. Noisy smelly 2 strokes - what were they thinking. Then Yamaha came along with a TD1C and they were obsolete almost overnight.
 
Interesting that this came up. I recently spotted one of these on my local auction site, and at 30k wondered what makes it so special http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/motorbikes/motorbikes/classic-vintage/auction-630270591.htm. I'd heard the name Greeves, didn't know they were so sought after.
