I found an auction today for heaps of Mutt Motorcycles new parts from the closed Aussie distributor who must have lost quite a bit of cash over the past 3 years.
UK sourced and China made. Engines are Chinese made Suzuki GN250 engine from same factory that makes Suzuki branded ones and uses copies of frames as basis etc.

I won BOTH of these two custom listings ...couldn’t resist! Awesome, Instruments and all!
Pity they didn't come with the bikes.
I have a mate of 35 years who has a Suzuki GN 250 in need of a refurbishment too and his son with two science Masters degrees has just started a job at the ULTRA remote Kiwirrkurra Aboriginal desert community in Western Australia and hopes to do a Phd there.
His is same as this :
Motorcycle Parts & Accessories Store Liquidati... - Lot 2049
Motorcycle Parts & Accessories Store Liquidati... - Lot 2050
Lloyds Auctioneers and Valuers - Auction Lots
Turns out on some more Googling to be the one-off artwork of a local Aboriginal artist Saltwater Dreaming for their Aussie launch!
There is about 10 seconds of him painting the parts in the Youtube video.
Zachary Bennett-Brook is the artist and owner of Saltwater Dreamtime. A contemporary artist, Indigenous man of Torres Strait Islander ancestry born and raised on Dharawal Country (Wollongong), who has a love for the ocean and creating artworks which represent his surroundings and passions

Mutt Motorcycles Australia Launch Party
ABOUT US
Mona Vale, Sydney is the home for the brand along with being the new northside meeting point for riders heading on a run to Palm Beach or going for a squirt up Mccarrs Creek Road to the world-class roads through Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.
The launch party itself was a brilliant day with British style pork and stuffing rolls lubricated by @blackspecialtycoffee all morning and @modusoperandibrewing in the afternoon and evening. Aboriginal artist @saltwaterdreamtime came down and did a live custom bike painting while Chris Raggatt played the blues.
Saltwater Dreamtime
The early evening moved over to the in-house theatre for a moto short film finish to an exciting event.
Along with all of the legends who came to celebrate with us, the heroes of the event, of course, were the Mutt Motorcycles themselves. Test riders were tearing around Mona Vale all day grinning from ear to ear as they experienced the torquey 250cc singles crisp power. There is no denying that the bikes are fun to ride. The whole range is learner approved (LAMS), lightweight and confidence-inspiring for learner riders whilst more experienced riders take advantage of the flickable rideability.
The launch served as a testbed for how Mutt Motorcycles plan to use the space at #68DarleyStreet with movie nights, ride-outs and many more events planned throughout the year. Follow @muttmotorcycles_aus and subscribe to the newsletter here to make sure that you don't miss out!

Mutt Motorcycles Australia Launch Party
If you were down at #68DarleyStreet Mona Vale on the 13th of July then you would have had a big surprise! Darley Street is usually busy on a Saturday but on the 13th there was a noticeable rumbling sound to be heard all day as a huge part of the motorcycle community came along to support the launch of the Mutt brand on Australian shores.Mona Vale, Sydney is the home for the brand along with being the new northside meeting point for riders heading on a run to Palm Beach or going for a squirt up Mccarrs Creek Road to the world-class roads through Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.
