Mine was a '52 model. Very quiet on the road, stuck well to the road but had massive body role. It needed a stabillizer bar. The front end had SIX shock absorbers!

 Two tellies and one lever action each side, all original!

 It was a one owner when I got it, the paint was all polished through in spots, I had it resprayed Arora Gold  EJ Premier colour.
 
                 Nice.
 cheers.

 Paul Giles and Terry Lauer spectating at the 'International Scrambles round at Kembla.

Great shots Wally !!......I co-commentated the NSW MX Titles late 70's at Dargle with Paul Giles.......as an MXer, I was a much better commentator than a rider...... ;D

Actually it's a 350 Ariel in the Ajay frame.
 Taken at Moorebank. This rough looking thing was built by a Merrylands clubmate named Leo Brunbauer and I rode it in a race at Kembla previously and I was amazed at how easy it handled and how perfect Leo had it set up. Leo got 3rd in the 350 class oz titles at Kembla in a top class field.
 I wonder sometimes where Leo ended up after going to eN Zud. A clever tradesman.
 
 No 67 is Willouby Club hard working past secretary Len Main negotiating the infamous 'Sorbent Hill' at Moorebank.

 My back yard Villawood. The Jawa that sent me into orbit at sorbent hill, and the Payne framed 350 Beeza that had no guts but got me into 'B' grade.

Good stuff Wal.....you never hear great old names like Silentjew any more eh? That's a beauty, a bit like the late Arthur Hamburger ;D. Is it Barry Balchin in the Moorebank photo?

 Yeah Mark, in the true oz tradition of nic names we called our Arthur 'Halfa Sanshoe'
 
That went well when I used to do the MDMCC club news in the "motor cycle clubman', I put in there after a club day that "I'd been beaten by half a wheel before but never by halfa sanshoe",  We miss Arthur, a gentleman who went through VERY hard times as a child in WW2.
Cheers pancho.

 Who remembers the ol' Motor cycle Clubman ? Great little Sydney based mag Very ably editored by Mrs Pat Howie.

Who's the guy on number 2 Wally?
Lyndal Butler posted a shot from Goulburn on Facebook a month ago and he was in the background.
I'm not sure what year Dad registered the number.
