Royal Enfield Model G

A good solid motorcycle, the Royal Enfield Model G. This one a '51 or '52 model I believe. The earlier machines were noted for having a somewhat ugly and bulbous, though eminently sensible, unsprung front mudguard.

This photo is marked on reverse, 'March 18 1956', by this time the humble Model G would have been slightly old hat with its rigid rear.

From the vendor of the photo I got the information that the location is Leamington Hastings in Warwickshire and that the couple are his parents, Miss Doreen Rawbone and Mr David Hillier.
