wicky that 250 has the mag in front of the engine, the original pic has it behind the motor like the sloper has, the sloper is a ohv motor with a single header pipe.

Re: Can you find the exact model of this bike??

that looks like a BSA 493cc sloper, launched in 1927 the engine was inclined forward & it had 2 frame down tubes at the front, the M20,M21 had single down tube & verticle engine.
