Old Bike Australasia

Ron’s G45 has been around!

-

Further to the article about Ron Robinson, l bought the G45 from Ron at Phillip Island in 1961-2 and rode it for about three years and then sold it to Bill Horsman at Mallala. He subsequent­ly told that the engine was fitted into a speed car and the a triumph was fitted into the bike which I saw at Phillip Island in later year, Bill also told me that the engine finished in a museum in the USA. Here are some photos of the bike with me sitting on it and the one with the number 100 on it was when Bernie Coleman rode it at Mallala one time. Feel free to publish this if you like. I was a member of the Preston Motor Cycle club when I was racing and also helped Kel Carruthers in Europe in 1967 which was a great experience. Patrick Bruce Bittern, Vic
