Sorry, but this is not the Arrow engined Bantam you saw at Broad Farm. There are a few of these bikes about.

It also has a Yamaha twin-leading shoe front brake . The owner described some of the problems he encountered, such as the inlet manifold at the wrong angle because the engine is more vertical than previously, and various other difficulties. All together a very interesting project, makes a change from Tritons, Tribsas, Norvins, etc….

This Bantam Arrow surely is a home built ‘ special ‘.
