New member with 500 OHV from 1928

[MirkoCrkvenjakov]

Hi! I am new to the forum,with not so complete Ariel. Bike is without petrol tank,handlebar and levers,and probably some more small bits.As I can see,front forks are not original.and part of the frame where gear changing mechanism was is missing and I am hoping that somebody here can put some photos,and measures,and I can fabricate missing parts.Some pics,for beginning!
