Sadly not very many were sold, buyers opting for the cheaper alternatives like the [[Ariel Leader|Ariel Leader]]. The fibreglass body hung on new frame structure with rear fork pivots. A 2.5 gallon petrol tank was formed integral with the bodywork. At the front end twin side by side headlights were provided with a windscreen & an instrument panel. The leg-shields & footboards were moulded as one. The lower side panels were removed to access the engine. Indicators were moulded into the body panels. Not many of these were sold & it is very rare. | ||
