Motor number and frame number are not made with the original/correct stamps => 100 % Replica.

"...numbers matching example that is close to original, ..." + "..this excellent example is very, very close to being “concours correct”"
They mess around and do not clearly state, that this is a well-made SFC Replica and not a real original SFC!
Without a clear identification as a Replica, this is dubious sales behavior!

Quite a realistic test, far better than many. How old is it from, naming Slater´s as the parts supplier?
Less than 10 years. I remember that article. Slaters has only been closed a few months and remember that the UK is surrounded by sea though the journalist does mention parts from Italy via ebay.

I didn't like that 'Norton' framed triple the first time I saw it. Having sat through the video I like it even less. I can't see how anyone would consider the frame an improvement on the original. And it isn't a Norton frame but someone's 'replica'. Imagine how well a Manx Norton engine would fit in it!
