Family owned since new - just two registered keepers
Fitted with a rare Miller hi-boy frame and Champion kit
Engine rebuilt at Sammy Miller's workshop
Rebuilt in 2004 including frame, chrome replating, and engine work
Has reportedly partaken in less than 10 trials
The Appeal
The Sherpa T is one of the most revered trials motorcycles ever produced - perhaps one of the most famous Bultaco machines ever built - and the M80 continues to be clamoured for by enthusiasts past and present. This example is further distinguished by its rare Miller hi-boy frame and Champion kit, a specification that will immediately catch the eye of any serious trials aficionado.
Remarkably, this Sherpa T has been in the same family since new, passing from father to son. It has seen very light competitive use, having entered fewer than 10 trials events. In 2004, it underwent a rebuild that included the frame and full chrome replating, with the engine entrusted to the workshop of trials legend Sammy Miller. Since 2005, it has been dry stored, and the vendor reports it still runs well. The original tank is included as a spare. image.png1.09 MB
