Would anyone be able to identify the make of motorcycle in the attached photo. It was taken around 1960. It was my dad's who unfortunatly had a nasty accident on it not long after the photo was taken. Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Happy to have helped. It took me back to my mis-spent youth.

Good evening,
If you want to know anymore about the bike contact these people;

They will be able to tell you exactly where and when it was first registered etc.
