I am thinking of bidding on the model B linked below, is anyone familiar with these bikes or have any thoughts ?

What a cool old Enfield, looks to be in good condition. I am not familiar at all with that model, never seen one like it but I do have one thought. Buy it!

I am following this one with interest.

One question that comes up is its advertised as a B Model but it seems the original 1936 B model was a sloper ...

also the 1936 B seems to have shipped with a hand gear lever whereas the bike in the photo's looks a lot more like the 350 cc G or 500cc H model gearbox with foot shift.

Any experts on 1930's Enfields around who can give some insight ?

Mystery solved.

Its actually a 1937 model ...
