1978 swm guanaco trials bike twinshock SOLD
This bike has been in my collection for many years, I bought it as I knew its history, it is a remarkably honest and very little used machine, as can be seen by the original footrests!
Over the course of time I have improved and resurrected the bike to a very high standard.
To start I will list the new parts;
carb complete.
chain and sprockets.
all plastics including chain guard .
Brand new fuel tank!
all cables and grips.
Brand new better shocks (and no they are not upside down)
stunning alloy throttle.
Air filter.
Snail cams.
Clutch plates , friction and pressure.
Fork stanchions are like new, testament to how little this bike has done.
new fuel pipe with inline filter
Tyres and tubes, IRC.
It also has lovely fasteners everywhere.
It has a nice bracket to protect the timing side cover and crankcase from chain damage,
A proper return spring for the chain tensioner that actually does what it is supposed to do!.
A nice side stand that tucks in lovely and doesn't bang up into the swing arm every time.
The brake pedal is lovely and tight,
Original rims that are not corroded at all inside, and are still pretty true with no major kinks at all.
These are seriously capable machines, for twinshock competition trials or greenlaning.
any questions answered.
