1948 ROYAL ENFIELD 500cc
This Royal Enfield was purchased new in Melbourne for £242 by my Dad, Stan L. It was his pride and joy and ridden daily. In 1956 he moved to Toowoomba, Qld and 1963 moved to a property near Yarraman where family commitments & farming took priority and the bike was retired to "the SHED" for some 30 years.

In 1995, his son Trevor, restored the bike back to it's original glory. Thankfully Dad got to see & ride it once again, bringing back wonderful memories, before passing away in 1996. The Royal Enfield still remains within the family and is proudly ridden & displayed by his daughter Jill.
