From the seller: “I AM SELLING THIS BIKE FOR SPARES OR REPAIRS
I TOOK THIS BIKE IN FROM A FRIEND WHO WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A SERIOUS ILLNESS 6 YEARS AGO & HASN’T BEEN ABLE TO RIDE A BIKE SINCE. THIS BIKE WAS HIS PRIDE & JOY AT THE TIME BUT THE BIKE WAS JUST PARKED UP BACK THEN AS A RUNNING COMPLETE ROADWORTHY BIKE & IT HASN’T TURNED A WHEEL SINCE UNTIL TODAY.
I FREED THE BRAKES OFF WITH A RUBBER MALLET JUST TO MOVE THE BIKE TO HERE. I ALSO PUT THE JUMP LEADS ON & THE ENGINE TURNS OVER VERY NICELY ON THE STARTER BUT COULDN’T TURN THE FUEL TAP ON AS IT IS SEIZED SOLID. OBVIOUSLY IT PROBABLY WOULDNT FIRE UP ANYWAY HAVING VERY OLD FUEL IN THE CARBS.
THE TYRES STILL LOOK DECENT.
THE BIKE LOOKS TO BE PRETTY MUCH ALL THERE INCLUDING WHAT LOOK TO ME LIKE DECENT ORIGINAL FAIRINGS. IF YOU CAN SEE BEYOND THE DIRT & DUST A GOOD WASH COULD EXPOSE QUITE A LOT OF BIKE FOR THE MONEY.”
