In common with other makers, the Essex firm of Greeves was hard-hit by the tailing-off of engines from Villiers. Alternatives were found and the Pathfinder, a 'trail-bike' in the day, received the 169cc power-unit from Puch's enduro model, not without some muttering from the purists! The engine proved to be problem-light, though its power output style was different from the Villiers. This sound example is without its lighting set and registration plate - though it should be noted that it has a V5C. In apparently very good condition, a Greeves enthusiast will find that some simple additions will restore its original appearance and the usual re-commissioning and safety checks should follow.
