Motor looks like a G50 to me.

Is No 43 Alan Moss, it's the second time I've seen this bike in a couple of weeks. I ask if it's Mossy because the colour is so unusual ...

May well be a Greenwood dry sumped motor, I remember his 650 triumph well like that. But still reckon it's a G50, no Trumph ever looked like that not even the one or two I have seen that were converted to OHC.
