Description

1st registered in 1951, 4 previous owners, matching numbers and original unrestored condition. Has craven rack and additional sprocket on rear wheel for sidecar. Underseat box with Toolkit. Various parts replaced due to wear and tear, rewound magneto, new period correct avon tyres, new exhaust, rebuilt front wheel, rewired to original spec, new carb as old one had gone porous. A completely unspoilt timewarp. Some spares and service items included.
Video of bike running on 01. 04. 2026 is available if you contact me as I cannot add to the photos due to file size. Finding a low owner matching numbers comet with a buff logbook is rare. I was told it was nearly impossible but after a lot of searching i found this bike. Sadly i have too many other projects on the go to use it.
