Obviously not totally original but nice. Sounds and goes well and the owner is selling due to overful garage syndrome. Near Holmfirth in God's County.
Proof that four strokes are over complicated

hi Rich,
Guess who?
Welcome to the forum, plenty of help and advice available on here.
And here's the photo that I mentioned just after I've bothered to give her a proper polish.
Good luck with your search.

I was feeling just like you a few months ago and after scouring the ads bought a shiny restored but shaken down bike. Have got classic sports bike in the garage but the satisfaction from owning/ cleaning and riding this shiny work of art is another really great aspect to biking. For how much longer are we going to be able to enjoy two strokes and don't worry they are plenty fun to ride accepting their technological age. Go for it !
