FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS Girling suspension was introduced on the G45September 1956, the G45 was discontinued in August 1957, this suggest the picture, if at a show, may be late 1955, 1956 being the last year for the G45.l

FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS Superb, just absolutely superb. Was there ever a better looking racing machine than the G45?? The only thing that comes close is the Vincent Black Lightning, in my humble opinion.

FJRIGJWWE9R1PIC_RATING:COMMENTS I remember watching these and other types of bike along with Moon eyes cooper and Derick Minter etc etc racing in the late 60 s at Mallory Park I still think the exhaust boom of the old four strokes wins every time.
