Low Mileage Completely Restored British Beauty. Current original mileage is 6086 may increase slightly.

This bike was parked in 1987 bythe original owner andsat unused until I purchased it 5 years ago. It has been completely rebuilt and assembled to original (Boyer ignition added) by a British motors specialist. It has fewer than 100 miles accumulated since completion.

The machine is nearly perfect. It is difficult to describe/remember everything that has been done. The bike starts easily runs beautifully sounds awesome and shifts smoothly. The wheels run true the brakes work well handles better than new.

This is a matching numbers bike that has just undergone a complete mechanical/cosmetic restoration. Every single part from this classic was disassembled. The frame and all other steel components have been tastefully powder coated either black or silver (EX: air box color is more like aluminum).

The engine was completely rebuilt with a balanced crankshaft rod and piston assy. New Superblends and crankshaft studs jugs are bored +.060.

Throughout the entire machine every bearing bushing seal gasket o-ring washer etc. have been replaced and upgraded to the best available.

Head rebuilt with new black diamond valves guides seals and springs. Head steady upgraded to 850 type. Timing chain tensioner added.

Steel fuel tank has been sealed. Tank and STEEL side covers have been professionally painted in Royal Fireflake Blue. British made decals on tank and covers have been applied and covered with 20+ applications of clear coat. The finish looks incredibly deep. The paint is flawless.

Imperfections are (1) there is a 4” scrape on the lower right header pipe where it meets the muffler. See the picture. (2) The oil tank rear rubber mount is fractured (PN060636 $8.00 at Old Britts). (3) There is not a tool kit. (4) Turn signals light up but don’t flash.

This is a great bike to ride or show. They don't come much better.
