Description

A seldom seen original unmolested bike in very nice useable condition.
Historic vehicle showing 58003 miles on the clock which I understand is original.
Runs well and has done only about 500 miles since last oil change and service.
Fitted with stainless steel silencers, good tyres. Just needs a new enthusiastic owner to put some more miles on it or even just show it, it always receives favourable comments and usually when I take it out there's always someone wanting to chat.
When looking at the images, please remember it's a 47 year old bike in overall good condition but it's not concourse. The paint is original but as per image there is a small ding on off side above badge. Also rear vertical edges both sides are slightly worn and scuffed. I personally was absolutely not interested in ruining the originality of the tank paintwork by getting a repair, it's honest wear, tear and patina.
Can sell with or without period panniers/ screen.
Asking a reasonable price, any further information required do not hesitate to contact me.
Location is 20 minutes s. w. of Glasgow, I am 2 minutes away from motorway network.
