Description

THIS IS MY MEMORY LANE TRIP! - I RODE THIS BIKE EXTENSIVLY 35 YEARS AGO. AND BOUGHT IT ON SIGHT WHEN ONE OF THE MAJOR CLASSIC DEALERS HAD IT UP FOR SALE A FEW MONTHS AGO. tHE BIKE HAS COVERED VERY LITTLE MILEAGE IN THE LAST TWENTY YEARS. AND IS IN FIRST CLASS ORDER - NOT CONCOURSE. BUT REALLY GOOD. THE ODOMETER SHOWS 2. 00 MILES. I REMEMBER CHANGING THE CLOCK IN 1980. AND I SUSPECT THIS IS THE MILEAGE IT HAS COVERED SINCE THEN. I HAVE NEARLY TWENTY YEARS OF MOT'S. ALTHOUGH IT IS NOW EXEMPT. AND VARIOUS OTHER HISTORY.  I HAVE TOURED ON IT A COUPLE OF TIMES. AND USED IT LOCALLY. IT RUNS VERY WELL. STARTS EASILY. AND DRAWS A CROWD WHEN YOU PARK IT! - I UNDERSTAND THE MAGNETO HAS BEEN RECENTLY REBUILT. THE ENGINE IS 100% OILTIGHT. nbsp;THE GEARCHANGE SPLINE SEEPS IF THE GEARBOX IS OVERFILLED. I HAVE THREE OTHER BIKES. AND AFTER THE INITIAL EXITEMENT OF BEING 19 AGAIN I HAVE REALISED THAT I AM LIKELY TO USE IT LITTLE! - THE BIKE IS OPEN TO ANY INSPECTION. AND IS FOR SALE ON THE BASIS OF CASH PAYMENT.   - DO FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS. IF YOU SEND A PHONE NUMBER IF THERE ARE LOTS! - I AM SELLING THE BIKE FOR A FAIR CHUNK LESS THAN I PAID FOR IT. SO AM OPEN TO NEAR OFFERS ONLY.   

I WILL BE AWAY FROM THE 15TH FOR A WEEK. AND UNABLE TO ORGANISE VIEWINGS. MY MOBILE DURING THIS TIME IS 07432 734009
