It has excellent chrome work and paint work , Shiny alloy engine cases , Excellent tyres , Chain and sprockets and we have just serviced it fitting a new battery , Oil changed , Sonically cleaned carburettors and a new Tacho cable has been fitted . It fires into life with out effort and sounds superb . On the road the gears select correctly and the 650 cc motor pulls very well with no major oil smoke or undue noise . The Lightning was the twin carburettor road going A65 twin and the Thunderbolt was the single carburettor version .
