I may have forgotten some things but hope this gives a flavour of just how nice this bike is, I have hardly ridden it - but the brief rides highlighted the new carbs will need re jetting / setting up and the front brake shoes will need a good bedding in session so something for the new owner to play with.

I have a big folder of recites and build pictures which will be included in the sale.

The V5C is in my name 3 letter 3 number which is non transferable DVLA registered in 2021 with 1951 age related plate - I am the only owner. The bike is MOT and Tax exempt.

Happy to sell if your located in Europe I am close to the Portsmouth ferry so easy collection.
