More than 15+ years and I have an unfinished airhead project in the garage. Spent thousands on it.
It is now, also my old oilhead that needs my attention as well.

It’s not mine,but I guess @£2500 would buy it.

Looks like an Oily Rag resto would work well on it

Has some nice add ons and the better brakes

Hi Mike, does it run, and go into gear, etc, thanks Tommy

 

[SBD]

If it runs & goes into gear, it’s just a dirty bike, not a project.

@mikeyboy

If you look carefully at the tail end of those exhausts Do they say Breakwell & Green on them ?

 

[mikeyboy]

In answer to above questions.
The bike has been stood for years.
No attempt has been made to start it.
It will need a battery,complete clean out of fuel tank and carbs before it would run.
The bike is not in my possession .
Pm if seriously interested.

Ok,
So it looks like the bike is coming to me next week.
£2k will buy it as it stands.
I’d be happy to recommission as required.

I wonder what the 3rd thing will be when it comes along ???

Do you folks over there have the same thing

Stuff arrives in 3s, Like punctures or buses etc etc ??

Well,I would say,
Things are considerably more expensive than a few years ago.
Everything has gone up by about a 1/3rd.
To do a nut/bolt restoration on this would be @£15 k
However,that said.
Those handy with spanner’s and spare time could have a perfectly useable bike for the cost of tyres,battery carb rebuild etc and see where it goes.
The bike was originally used in South Africa.
Registered here early 2000’s
I’m assured it has keys and U.K. logbook.
If no one is interested in buying I’ll recommission it and keep it till the market improves.
If we all get locked down to stop monkey pox it’ll be worth £3.5 k all day long

I finally got around to collecting it this week.
A genuine 1 owner bike.
I’ll be keeping this one,my winter project.

Keep telling myself I need a project. Looks very nice.

Nothing better to do on a Sunday.

I’m hooked already. Apart from being disused for some time it looks in remarkably good condition

That’s the main reason I decided to keep it.
The stainless exhaust,hard chrome fork stanchions,surefoot stand,fork brace ,that’s over £1k saved on the usual resto costs.
1 owner from new,verified low miles.
A total bargain

Has anyone got a nice condition early hella rear light that they would part with?
I much prefer the look of the pre 80’s lamp
