Description

 Francis Barnett Falcon 1953

Lovely example of this bike. and in my opinion. the nicest model they made.

Has the 3 speed Villiers engine/gearbox. Everything on this bike works as it should. Starts 1st or 2nd kick every time and the engine. gearbox. drive train and brakes are all as they should be.

The bike has just benefitted from a new saddle. full exhaust system. rear shocks (originals also included). volt meter. front and rear pressed metal licence plates from Framptons. cables. fuel tap and pipe. I will also include the matching top box frame which I preferred not to fit and 2 lovely period leather saddle bags which really set the bike off. Most of the nuts and bolts have been replaced with stainless steel.

The V5 is in my name and there is a lot of paperwork with the bike as you can see from the pictures. I think the pictures speak for themselves regarding the bikes condition but feel free to come and have a look.

The bike is always garaged and has only been ridden in dry weather. Comes with 11 months tax (which is free) and exempt from MOT now due to its age. Has just had a service. new plug. gearbox oil. points etc.

Im selling the bike reluctantly as I have a space shortage.

This is your chance to pick up a very nicely preserved piece of motorcycling history.

No reserve!!

Please note that I will not accept paypal payment unless the buyer is happy to pay the additional fees. as I am not. Will accept payment on pick up or direct bank transfer.

Happy to organise nationwide delivery with a reputable bike courier company at buyer?ˆ™s expense. probably coming in at ~£140 depending on area.
