I can remember seeing my dad ride my gsx250 back in the early 80s. He took it up the road and back again. No helmet.
My sister was dad's carer and it is only fitting that she gets to keep this bike.
The engine turns over. It does not fire up as it needs a wiring harness. Why that is not in place I don't know yet. It is in Lid ombré and will be transported to Chester Hill to my parents place. We have bought this unseen. Just from the photos.
I intend to get it up here so I can work on it. I have an old school friend up Singleton way who restores Brit bikes. He will be is enlisted to help with this bike.
I would like that the patina stays. Just make sure the engine runs, changes gears and electrics work.
I know that Dad would have looked at this with fond memories. He rode his to Mt Druitt to the bike races there in the 50s.
When I bought this bike on eBay this arvo I cried like a baby. ****** I miss dad so much.
