Webley did send me a nice book on Webley history along with my dear John letter, so it wasn't all for nothing.




All the best Mick
BSA must have based that idea on their history of making precisely-engineered motorcycles (hahahahahahahahaha!) as my 1973 Meteor has numerous deviations from the concept of 'precision'. I see no-one is clamouring to buy the 'piled arms' badge to stick on a Shanghaicycle.

And Webley sent you a history? Well, they are now. Innit.

Tant pis.
