i think bryan was just mocking it up for a parts sale, he builts very tasty bikes and thats not his style.

Id say they where all sat together just to sell, things seem to sell better in situ than a foto of a pile in the floor. And those god alful rims usually adorn later model rotax or even TT's, not little cc bikes

Those wheels suck. That's a nice price for the Knight frame. A well known Wollongong vintage racer has just bought in a nice Knight Rotax 600 with all of the bells and whistles. It's not vintage legal but it's a sweet little bike. I've just picked up some genuine Barnes hubs for my Trackmaster Benelli project so, as soon as the Hindall, Cheney and Trials bike are done I'll get back into it. I'm also onto a 465 Yamaha powered '76 Astro that may end up in my shed if the planets align correctly. Even though they don't suit our tracks, American style flat trackers are still cool.
Although it's not the actual bike, this Knight Rotax is virtually identical to the one recently imported
