Pic. here is a bad photo-copy of a U.K.Motorcycle Magazine front cover, dated :- June 2003. The BSA Spitfire motorcycle is parked in front of a railed off area with a Spitfire mounted on a plinth and what is possibly a Church behind, ( You can just see part of Church cross up near roof eaves.)
Spitfire Tail number is:- N 3194. The railings appear to be painted blue.
My questions are:- (a) Where is this place ? (b) Is Spitfire a Genuine one or a “Fibreglass” version. (c) What is the significance of the markings and tail Numbers.
A friend keeps badgering me about this and he provided the Pic. The location is almost certainly U.K.,( but you chaps out there will know.)
Must say, the BSA looks rather “Snappy”.
Thanks fella’s,
Bill T.

P (b) Is Spitfire a Genuine one or a “Fibreglass” version.
Fibreglass – there are no longer any genuine Spitfires on full-time external display in the UK.
