Claims it's eligible Pre65, Mk3 is 1966 according to catalogue. I'm no Greeves guru, just hate someone to buy it and find it's a Pre70 bike. We've had a few new members caught out with buying bikes that don't fit the class advertised.

Hi, That pre 65 rule  changed in 2012
 In the 2011, the old rule book, said; "All 250 alloy beam(frame)up to Mk3" were OK for pre 65, 
See 2014 rule 16.15.8.1,
"Acceptable for the pre65 class are machines and components built up to and including the 1964 model.  The only exception to this rule if the model remains unaltered after this date".
 must get the 2015 Manual of Motorcycle Sport,
yes unfortunately some people have been disappointed.
cheers

Thanks Michael.
 We'd love to see that bike in our club whatever class it falls into. I know very little about Greeves, but the banana forks would put "follow on" in doubt as weren't on the earlier models. Once again, we have had members innocently caught out.
