This and the fact it's only showing 13954 miles and has been in dry storage for the last umpteen years have helped maintain its boyish good looks. We have been unable to confirm this mileage reading. Please disregard it. 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!. PLEASE CHECKOUT THE PICTURES........As you can see this bike has a few parts missing – Mirrors, ball ends off the levers & ignition key being the most obvious. It has stood a while so the battery is flat, non standard paintwork is faded, tyres are perished, tank is mucky inside & carburettors are stuck. BUT NOW FOR THE GOOD NEWS.........The wheels are straight with nice clean chrome rims, good hubs & brake plates. Forks & yokes look straight. Mudguards are both solid & are reasonably tidy. Tail light assy is good as are the headlight & hangers. Instruments & switches look ok. Exhausts are original & solid. Seat is in good condition throughout. The engine is cosmetically clean but sadly it is seized, hopefully it will be through standing around forever but we have not inspected the engine internally so we have no idea why/how it has seized.
