Stunning 1950 S8 Sunbeam
This is a great example of an S8. nearly everything has been bespoke made in stainless. nuts. fixings. clamps. linkages and more. Â Stainless exhaust pipes. stainless handlebars. stainless spokes. Â Quality alloy rims. larger front brake drum. Amal Concentric carb. 12volt conversion with a sealed battery.
Â
I have just completed a full engine strip and rebuild. Â Running on +30 pistons with new rings and honed bores. crank is perfect. head was rebuilt with new guides etc 1500 miles ago. Stewart engineering breather mod fitted. Â The bike is currently filled with running in oil and will need to be changed after 500 miles. Â Starts well (4th kick after rebuild)
Â
I have owned this bike for just over four years and done around 2000 miles on it. Â The bike has never let me down since I have owned it and has completed many VMCC runs. Â A local dealer said to me that the bike looks better in the flesh than the pictures. Now looking to purchase a pre 30’s bike.
As always no warranty can be given with the bike but I wont let it go without making sure it is running ok.
If the bike sells I would like to complete the sale within 7days and will be asking for a non-returnable deposit of ?100 and final payment in cash. Â The bike is being advertised elsewhere so I reserve the right to end the sale at anytime.
Happy bidding
