Description

Selling my wonderful Venom in Clubmans Trim. Matching numbers and on original registration. She was rebuilt by previous owner and has just 550 careful running in miles on the clock.
I paid 8k from a dealer and spent a further 1k on her during my ownership. All bills and receipts to prove.
Borrani rims and stainless spokes
Twin clocks
Straight bars and alloy levers
Clubmans seat / tank / rear sets
Alton Alternator
12 volt electrics
New Amal 389 carburettor
New Thorspark electronic ignition
New non return ball valve
Front tyre, tube and rim tape
Plus other bits and pieces
Further head work carried out - Porsche spring conversion, new guides, valves, t-sert, skimmed head. While head was away for works I took barrel off to check big-end and can confirm zero play. Cross hatch honing still visible on barrel. I replaced rings as a matter of course. Currently plus 40 tho. Zero wear to cam and followers, also confirming engine rebuild.
She starts, ticks over, runs, rides and stops very well indeed.
The eagle eyed among you will realise this has been up for cheaper. However, in light of the above time and money spent she is priced more realistically. £6500 buys her.
Call to chat or just save to your 'favourites' as will make great screen saver. Alternatively you could look at all the ropey rest and come and buy a genuinely lovely machine that wants for nothing.
I'm a velocette enthusiast and have rebuilt / restored plenty over the years. Member of the VOC.
Obviously silly attempts to offer their granny in exchange or window lickers will be ignored. People seeking to make their fortune out of my hard graft and dedication can also walk on by as I am in no hurry to sell.
Genuine interest greeted enthusiastically however.
If you want a sorted Venom that wants for nothing you'll have to go a long way to find one as good as this for the money.
Cheers for looking.
