Description

Have a haynes manual and a thick quality weather cover for anyone that buy-it-nows (not included for bidders).   Possibility of delivering to some areas in the southern counties. for a fee. but ask if you really cant collect. Bike availlable for viewing. Bought it as a bobber / chopper project. look around online. some fantastic examples. But I couldnt bring myself to do it as its in such good condition for its age. A real head turner. not many on the roads these days and a real distinctive sound to the V-Twin engine and shaft drive. This will be (and is becoming) a huge collectable. wish I could keep it and do it justice. However I no-longer have a garage to keep it in and want it to go to someone who can really look after it or has the time to turn it into a show stopper of a custom job. Rides wonderfully and cant fault it as a day to day bike. Would also be a great first bike on the way up to the big bikes. rides like a big bike with 500cc insurance level. Done my best to keep it well maintained. its had new needles on the carb valves (was running a bit rich). but could do with some cosmetic TLC and possibly a couple of hoses replacing in the future. Nothing that would break the bank. Its very easy to get parts for this. standard or custom and lots of inspiration for customizing online.
