By John Binns. The history of the bike is it was delivered new to southern California and used in racing the local circuits. I believe in the mid sixties it was retired and forgotten. Eventually, the bike was acquired from a gentleman in San Francisco, dismantled and again forgotten. In my search for a Gold Star, at a local bike shop I ran into this person and quickly purchased it. Over the next 10 years I slowly restored it as shown in the images.
