Makes sense David. I owned cgp 373 for a few years, bouhgt in the US but it had been reimported from Aus as a basket case. The short frame bobber I currently have , is around cgp1200 I think, but I bought the frame in Aus, the motor was US sourced tho.
Motors were identical to dgp 101s, just numbers different, safe to assume that all short frames 28s had cg or cgp numbers. Interestingly, the late moodel little twins, that allegedly did not exist after 1915 , but were still for sale a couple of years later in Aus hade later numbers, I think Pete Birthisel has one with a 1917 engine number.
Anyone got a 28 shhort frame with what looks like an original front brake ?
Anyone got one with an original looking 101 style dash and ammeter? What about the toggle light switch as opposed to the beavertail ?
Anyone fancy sending in some pics and history of their short frame for the Wow? Be good to have a few more details on short frames .
