“This is not an original bike, although it looks fairly standard at a quick glance. I have owned it for 16 years and had it on club plates for most of that time. The engine and electrics are from an SL230, so it has electric start, decent lights and can actually get out of its own way if needed. Top speed is about 120 kph, but it’s a really willing and gutsy engine. The bike handles surprisingly well and is very stable in corners. Great fun on something like the Granya Gap or Mt Hotham.
“The engine has done about 23,000 km. The rest of the bike has probably done a bit less. The front sprocket and O ring chain are nearly new. The original seat vinyl has recently cracked, but the foam and base are sound. Rearsets are fitted at the moment, but normal footpeg mountings are included.
“I’m not asking for a higher price because some work will be needed for a RWC – the exhaust is very loud, the left-hand blinkers are not completely reliable and the brake light only has a switch on the back brake. VicRoads have never asked me for an engineer’s report, but the next owner might not be so lucky.
“Spare frame and 1970-ish tank included.
“Contact me for more details and heaps of photos.”
