Description
In good running order with some signs of use . all original nimbus parts , tho the forks are the heavier weight type fitted from 1949 onwards.. some of the pics show it with a rear rack and furry seat that’s how I’ve used it recently , ive reinstated the pillion , but the other bits go with the bike.
Don’t let my low price put you off compared to others you may see advertised, it’s every bit a decent good machine. Talk with me and I’ll explain why I’m selling, which is a combination of health and needing space to keep a classic car. I’ve owned this Bike for over 7 years and used it fairly frequently , it’s never let me down , in fact it’s one of the most reliable machines I’ve ever owned.
Made in Denmark , by the firm that still makes Nilfisk vacuum cleaners and power washers. It is pretty unique.
An OHC engine , but with exposed valve gear driving a three speed gearbox via a shaft drive to the rear wheel .
The frame is hi tensile flat bar , riveted , Not welded. Brakes are fine for its top speed of around 60 mph , it’s happiest at 50 to 55 mph and emits the buzzing exhaust note which led to it being nicknamed ‘the bumble bee’
. the buyer can collect and pay cash or pay by bank transfer and I can arrange a courier for Uk mainland delivery at a fixed cost of £180.. twice now I’ve had individuals talk with me and agreed to purchase, one overseas and another in the Uk . Both have failed to complete the sale…. so only get in touch if you have the confidence and desire to buy at a distance and can complete the purchase in a reasonable timescale .
