Original purchase receipt and original owner until Feb last year when I bought it. Original owner had fully rebuilt engine 5000km ago and installed a Boyer electronic ignition and single mikuni carby, so it is on first rebore.  He also had frame and metal work repainted to a high standard and the paint work is in excellent condition. The bike had not been used for some time and a light surface rust in patches have appeared on the wheel rims and headlight. I have  in the last year highly polished all side covers, installed a T120 brake cylinder for better front braking and overhauled the front brake calipers. Bought a Corbin gunfighter seat and smaller blinkers - original seat and blinkers and airfilter are easily restored to the bike and all are in good condition and in my possession. New Avon Roadrider tyres. Brand New exhausts. The head will need a clean up as  valve guides are worn and blowing some smoke on throttle reduction and oiling plugs.

This is a great looking bike and I have honestly described its condition to avoid dissapointment and satisfaction to the buyer. With attention to a few minor items mentioned you will  have a very presentable and collectable bike.

 Q: Hi There, Great Looking Commando!! Does the bike have current NSW registration? Cheers.
A: Thanks, I reckon it is the best looking paint scheme for a classic bike and the paint is in immaculate condition and the alloy is shinier than shiny, the pics don't do it justice. Yes current NSW rego until 29th March... Continue reading
