I think this belonged to the late Frank Wileman and left to his son Mark. It spent its early life out in Holland and returned to the UK and funnily enough to a property in Darley Abbey, Derby (where the bikes where built) about 20-25 years ago. It was one I did get the chance to buy but it was dead rough and they wanted far to much for it. It sat around a while untill frank bought it and Frank and Mark renovated over a number of years. It was at Abbotsholm a few years ago. Is it on show or up for sale?
Frank was the long term/full term factory electrician for Silk Engineering, a great guy who we all really liked.
The engine and frame number should be in the records this site keeps but I cant remember it just now. Staffs
