Hi guys another new member.
I recently purchased a 1960 G2 can you tell me the difference between a lightweight and a heavyweight as there does not appear to be any reference on the log book , if this helps the engine number is 60/G2 7868 and the frame is 9950 . I also have a problem with no oil return and from what i have read here there appears to be a difference between the light and heavy in correcting the problem

A light weigh G2 engine is different to a heavy weight. It has other differences, like lighter, frame, wheels, forks etc. Below is a 1961 sales cat. G2 and G5.
G5 is a 350 light weight. G3 is a 350 heavy weight. Spot the difference. There was no 250 heavy weight. See also instruction book for your bike.
