Possibly, one would like to think that there was a standard and not just a
norm. But then again we are talking MG. It seems the organization of VIN's
and parts was a little more lax back then. With using up left over parts
from one year on the following year, and not just MG. But don't qoute me on
that, after all I was only 1 when my bike rolled off the line in 71,
technically, 11 months.
Didn't police specials have right hand shift? Plus I thought that there were
dealers that imported "police" bikes that were sold for civilian use. Were
those the extact same as the copper's?
For example, I don't think a civilian H-D police bike has the same engine
setup(cam, ignition,) from the factory. Did MG get involved like that or did
they just throw them out there as is with all the same specs.?
Later,
Kev

VP I think.....Versione Policia?
Thought I read somewhere that police bikes had a letter in front of the VIN. A V maybe? Kev Alan Dunphy wrote:
