Hello from Cyprus - Europe

[Iacovos]

Hi Friends

My name is Jack and i am emailing you from the small yet beautiful island of Cyprus in Europe!
Currently i own a 1936 EL which i am trying to correct with my good friend Matt Olsen!

Also i am about to get a 1929 BSA sloper sidevalve 500cc (the owner os tough though)!

In 2009 i managed to complete an iron butt run with my friend Matt (1000 miles in 24 hrs) on a 36 EL

I have been a member of the CAIMag forum since late 2008!

Interested to share my passion and help in this forum!

Mainly i am interested in American antique/vintage motorcycles!

Thanks a lot

Jack

Hi Sirhr,

This bike has been in Europe since the fifties as i know BUT it does not appear to have any features of the Export models like the front stand.
So i am trying to find out its story Do you know any of the other features of Export models?
It has been sitting in a 37 Frame and i had been lucky enough to find a 36 frame about a year ago.
As i understand it might had been involved in an accident at some point and this can be seen from the craftsmanship procedures when put together again (60's-70's)
So i am trying to "correct" the bike at the moment
You can follow some interesting findings in Matts Blog:
