Owned by me since March 1999. Bought with 12,833 miles on clock from Mdina Italia. I have taken it up to 18,713 miles. Last on the road in 2009. Been in dry storage since then.
It is currently wearing a Sprint fairing, Tarozzi rear sets and Lanfranconi silencers. I have the original 3 part fairing and footrests. I had the heads converted to run on unleaded with hardened valve seats and new guides. Lucas Rita electronic ignition fitted. 850 Owners manual.
I have the receipts for all my spends but very little from previous owners (4).
Endoscope view of the cylinder bores all looked good. Compression test was just over 160psi on one and 170psi on the other.
The carbs have been ultra sonically cleaned, new fuel lines and clean petrol and it fired straight up and ticks over sounding lovely.
When last run it had an intermittent misfire and smoked from one exhaust. Neither apparent when I ran it in the garage. The rear brake master cyclinder seals have leaked whilst in storage.
The bike is situated in Devizes, Wiltshire should you wish to view. I can forward further photos and a video of it running.
It would be a great project however I struggle to place a value on it and thus would ask if you are genuinely interested to view and make a sensible offer.
Thanks for looking.
