    I don't have the LOCs to hand and all my drawings and manufacturing / acceptance docs are in storage, but I will certainly look that info up for future reference.

    They are getting very rare the 1914 MkIII's as I think Lithgowicon only really fired up in the early 1900's or there abouts probably wrong but I have just ridden 167Klms on a very noisey Honda "Fireblade" and cannot be bothered getting out The Lithgow Factory and its People.

    Believe Lithgowicon cranked up in 1912.
