I have been lucky enough to find a 53m frame and matching motor. Its in rough condition and requires some parts such as seat and guards and sidecovers. Most of the pictures of these bikes show the rear of the frame extending past the seat similar to a later grey tank 63m. My frame stops at the shock mounts and has a chrome loop that bolts on and supports the rear guard. Can someone identify what model this is, I assume it is a 1968 orange tank/ white frame 250 4speed cappra gp but stand to be corrected. Any help to locate the missing parts will result in my undying admiration.
Cheers, Rob
