I honestly hadn't noticed that. Silly me. I had since found out the bike is a Racer Motorette 70 Lavalette. Apart from a few images and the link above I am unable to find out much more. I have contacted the website and am awaiting a response. Will keep you all posted. I'm curios to find out if it's rare and worth a few bucks or so rare no one knows much about them. Has anyone heard of the makers 'Racer' before. http://s2.e-monsite.com/2010/03/01/07/Embleme-RL.jpg

I'm not currently sure about that engine, but it might be an ILO.
