  1. No,it was based on asleeved down Honda 600 car engine. Built by Andreas Georgiades. (ASG)

  2. In 1972 I shared Trevor Smith’s workshop in Earls Court with George. The motor was a sleeved down Honda S600 engine with the block modified to have 4 smaller sleeves air cooled instead of the water jacket. George matched a pair of 250 twin race kit 4 vave double OHC heads to hold down the sleeves.The bike was an absolute jet but the 16″ front and rear wheels created bad handling problems which were never really sorted.
