it says 1944 but the central mounting for the speedo is early. (speedo fails) steering damper comes with it but not for a '44 I think.
7/8"handlebar is later. Tank has holes for badges not decals. What can be told from the framenumber?
Missing second hinged toolbox and lower chainguard.
Seller decided not to challenge me and supplies the horn bracket separate
AVC unit is a slightly later model ...and Ah! missing the 6170-37 shield !
Handlebar levers is a mixed affair, missing the double Adv. Exh. one.
gear change lever not the WD type one.
I know a WD kickstart clip for sale somewhere.....

The engine is from 1942 but is not listed in the DB, probably included as a spare with a contract. The frame is from contract S4554 and is from 1944, so she is correct although the rest of the bike isn't. Original engine was BH 36922. This bike was previously offered by Dutch Lion in October 2021.
