This bike was used for regular commuting until 2000 when it dropped a valve. The engine was rebuilt with a new barrel. piston and head and all the valves were replaced. Unfortunately the rebuild stalled at this point due to the arrival of a daughter and the bike has been left in a dry shed since then. The exhaust system will require completely replacement. The handlebar fairing has a few minor cracks and a small chunk missing (see photo). No battery is fitted. A few minor nuts and bolts are also missing after 14 years storage. As can be seen in the photo there is some corrosion on the handlebars. Not trying to sound negative. but it would need some TLC and expenditure to get it back on the road. It was a joy to ride. light (only 152 kg). nimble and reasonably brisk (relaxed at 80+) - an ideal A-road machine for the smaller rider. The Monza was probably the best of the V50 models with more power and higher gearing than the standard V50 and it will be a classic one day. I could possibly deliver within 25 miles of Wotton-under-Edge. I only have the old style V5 but I understand this shouldn't be an issue. Paypal or cash on collection.
