[QUOTE="Albervin, post: 13898, member: 586"] [b]Series Alphabet soup.[/b] You would need fairly deep pockets to get it back to a vaguely original condition. Headlamp plus ammeter plus switch etc. would set you back several hundred £££ if you can find them. The saddle tube has been cut off (hard to tell from photos) so major welding job there. Supposedly "B" Bramptons are fitted to it so another major job. Mudguards, tail light, muffler add another decent dent in the kid(s)' inheritance. Chances are the handlebar, levers & switches are incorrect. Then there is what is inside the motor, clutch & gearbox............I wonder if the vendor stripped any of the good bits off to sell at a later date? It beats me how anyone would bid with such poor photos.:confused: [/QUOTE]
