Beschreibung
Wonderful late Thruxton from 1970 (one of the last 40 produced). Correct matching numbers for engine/ frame and gearbox. All original paint/ pinstripes/ decals. Only the rear mudguard was repainted sometime in the past. One owner from 1971 to present.
Original Amal Concentric carb fitted. Original Dunlop alloy rims. Original seat fitted. Earlier Smiths clocks fitted in period as they looked better. Exact mileage is not known but the bike is very well kept mechanically. The owner has been an avid Velocette enthusiast all his life, and purchased his first Velocette in 1959.
An Alton electric starter was fitted 6-7 years ago and works faultlessly. The dynamo fitted (also Alton) gives plenty of output so the Alton starter has always worked “on the button”.
Combined with the original Concentric carb, the Thruxton starts on the button and sets in to a pleasant idle straight away. You cannot find a more casual way of starting what is essentially a beast for the road.
All in all, this is a very useable, well maintained and original specimen of the iconic Velocette Thruxton.
Please get in touch for more info, photos and a video of the bike starting and running from cold.
