Finally riding a big boys bike
See the excellent website on the attached link and you will get much of the information you need on these bikes and will get you started in your research.

Thanks for linking to my site!! Appreciate it..
As for this bike... What strikes me is that a frame in the MG120xxx region would still have the curved front tube while up to now my research has shown that the transition from curved to straight happened somewhere much earlier
Also the frame welds seem pretty nicely done for a wartime Army frame...
Not implying it isn't original but if I came across this one, I would have to check further to be sure as there are many civilian bikes restored as lookalike Army cycles out there...
Are there any other marking/stampings above or below the frame number?
I'd say value is about 1500-2500 IF original....
Merry Christmas!
Johan
