1974 Bultaco 1974 Pursang MK-7 Model 120Jim Pomeroy Edition (1st American to win a Grand Prix motocross race)I bought it from a grandma. the original owner Barbara (Bab's) who raced it in the Utah desert a couple of years. As a barn find. it had been sitting in their shop since the late 70's. Although it showed little use-it had a skid plate installed so the frame was perfect. All bolts are the originals with plating the awesome condition. Original Motoplate ignition. I completely restored the bike to keep as part of my collection. Engine: Completely rebuilt by West Coast AHRMA racing legend Pat Brown. who has been rebuilding Bultaco engines since the early 70's. Barrel bored 30 over. new Mahl piston/rings. all new bearings using a needle bearing on one side of the and ball bearing the mod for a more durable rod bearing situation. Pat claimed the transmission gears indicated less use then any engine Bultaco motor he had ever pulled apart! All new: Handlebars. Cables. Barns clutch. brake pads. seat. seat foam. reproduction fiberglass fenders. rebuilt Mikuni. New F-Pipe. air cleaner. power coated frame. Forks rebuilt by Pat. 7. 5w Synthetic oil. with new sales. Honda bottom out bushing mod. All aluminum cases. nbsp;triple clamps etc. polished out. The gas tank was cleaned & coated with castle tank sealer. the polyester primer applied to the outside. block sanded then given to the Body Shop who used Automotive paint on it. and the new front & side panels. All new grommets. New forged Amal levers. kill switch. and all other rubber pieces available. New NJB shocks 1 inch longer than stock. New Needle headset bearings. new swing arm bushings. since the restoration the bike has only been take up and down the street. However the wheels are off another Pursang. although they were restored with the hubs polished. original double butted SS spooks polished. nbsp;original Al nipples. they have a dozen short rides on them. but the Perrelli tire show very little wear. This is one the best examples of the 197 pound works Jim Pomeroy Edition MK-7 Model 120. This model was the created with chrome alloy frame & handlebars. shoulderless Ackron rims double butted SS spooks polished. nbsp;original Al nipples. fiberglass seat base. light weight hubs with chrome plated braking surfaces. These models are becoming very hard to find and are appreciating in value. and they are destined to be one of the top collectible motocross bikes from the golden ERA of motorcross. I moved so it doesn't make sense to pay for storage so I have to sell this bike so I hope someone buys it who will appreciate all my hours of work & the 40+ hours of polishing the aluminum parts alone I have done to create this beauty. Please contact me with any questions.
