Very, very nice find for the funds. It's just a little fresher than '57, but I'll let the experts share the news. Sweet old bike.
I see a 1960 date code on the rear hub...I agree. The guard and graphics on the fork are the newer style, say '59 at least, but the Mayweg aluminum rack is the older style they used. Is the first number after the letter in the serial 9 or 0? Interesting that it has the sunburst badge. I think '60 was the year for those, if original to the bike. Gary
The serial will have a letter in either the first or second place. It could be something like A332405 with a lightly stamped A which looks like a 4.
It's post '59 for sure because of the guard, fork, and rack. Not that a couple years makes too much of a difference. It's not like the difference between a '69 Dodge Charger and a '73
