The single most important purchase for a classic restoration project is the bike to restore, whether it's going to be a commercial venture or just a hobby interest it all starts here!. Not that this bike needs or deserves restoring LOOK AT IT they are only ever original 1/once!!!. PLEASE CHECKOUT THE PICTURES.
Please study the pictures as they do form part of the description.
As you can see this bike is complete & remarkably original but for the period engine bars & chrome radiator grille.
It has stood a while, so the battery is flat, tyres feel hard & rear brake master cylinder is not working.
BUT NOW FOR THE GOOD NEWS.This is the actual bike you are bidding on – Not library pictures from 46 years ago & it is every bit as nice as it looks here.....A great find!.
The wheels look straight with nice clean rims, good discs, calipers & working front master cylinder.
Forks & yokes look straight with good chrome & clean alloy.
Mudguards are both solid & are tidy.
Taillight assy is good as are the headlight & hangers.
Instruments & switches look good.
Carburettors are free sliding off the twist grip.
Paintwork is solid & presentable original paint.
Exhausts are original & solid.
Seat is in good condition throughout.
Indicators are tidy.
The engine is cosmetically very clean - We have had it firing/running on easystart spray but the fuel system & carbs will need attention.
