This pulled in to the steelhorse cafe this afternoon and I thought it would make an interesting little quiz

Oh yes, and dont be fooled by the obvious engine, thats not the answer.

Looks like the tank off an AJS Stormer, with a Bantam engine.

Ok, the engine is a red herring as it's not correct, originally it would have come with a Villiers or Maico engine.

I thought you might get it Chris, yep, Sprite , offered originally as a build yourself kit to avoid purchase tax, and made not far from you I believe
