Could probably at a pinch get a bike that worked for that.
Even one you could use.
Or a whole house. With garage.
Glad I live in another world.

Surely he's had too many Fosters when he listed that!

It was suggested on another forum that all he's really trying to do is sell some calendars.

well,it left me in a state of shock also!,the picture concerns me as it looks like a publicity shot rather than one of the bike itself,if i was selling ANY bike i would show as many pics of the actual bike as possible.the engine number itself is certainly the first M24 Goldie but how do we know it isnt a differant unstamped crankcase half simply restamped.the Gold Star name came from one Wal Handley who set a lap record and was awarded a Gold Star but the bike he was on was a 1937 Empire Star,of which i have recently seen one of the same year advertised for sale at around the £3,500 mark!i think you are buying a lot of historical provenance rather than the bike itself but this has been the case with Manx Nortons etc for many years but personally i would buy a bike for what it is rather than who has ridden it.

Thats the second one of these that I have seen for sale here in Aus recently, funny thing is they both have the same engine number. JM24 101. Someone is being a bit naughty I think.
