Advert description
Bought this little honda a few years ago to add to my collection. Rode one when I was 16 years old now in my 50's got the rose tinted specs and found one. They seem to be super rare, probably as they were so gutless everyone wanted a SS50 or a FS1E. Found this one in Truro in the west country, its showing 4481 miles and in my opinion dead original, a local bike to that area as its showing the dealer transfer on the side panel, Even though it has signs of surface corrosion over the bike I am loathed to restore it as its so honest and only original once. The only bad bit is when I purchased it the seller didn't have a logbook, I've never got round to getting one but it is showing on DVLA records (I'm convinced its not had many owners) due to the condition of it, would say its never been dropped as all the indicator edges, footrests and the exhaust show no signs of gravel rash. I have now made the effort and got it running, the jets aren't great and its not happy on tick over but does sound quite sweet and not rattly it would benefit from some new jets and gaskets as they're dried out and it leaks fuel, the tanks a little rusty inside so I've run it off a dummy tank. Any more info needed send me a message, cheers.
