Hello,
I recently picked this bike up off Facebook. The guy said it was a 1954 B6, upon closer inspection the serial D31637 reveals it is a 1952, but doesn’t say which model. Is this a B6/autocycle or phantom? Because it seems to have similar paint designs and the same springer fork. I know the frame, fork and supposedly the bars are original. Not sure what else. My intentions are to get some S2 wheels which would be correct for this bike? And a original tank in crusty condition to match its looks if I can find one. Correct pedals would be nice too. Also want to remove the headlight and rear fender because not original?
Bike does ride nice though.
Thanks, Kev
