New arrivals feature on the Island this week,  This arrived just before we headed off to Stafford   The bike's a winter project, it was last taxed in 1996, so I'm expecting rust & seized bolts, the front brake is stuck on & the drive sprocket oil seal leaks, but it starts & runs ok & the general condition & old mots suggest the mileage is genuine, so the strip down begins....... |

Not so much slipped my mind as pushed out of it Carl . I hadn't had chance to do much with it other than check it started & ran. As often the case, it's not as good as the pictures, plus it's not as good as we expected either. On top of that, since she put the order in, Gill seems to have got the hang of kick starting the RSA! That was supposed to get rebuilt this winter, but now I've got this Deluxe to do instead  . So, I tried to forget about it for a while & enjoy our trip to Stafford . Back to reality now though, I've got started on the strip down, so I'll start a thread in the CB250RS section. |
