Top grammar tips!
Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated
Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

Got it home! Engine seems to turn too, he'd chucked diesel in there before the sale. I'm only it's 3rd owner. The original owner had it from new until 1994, it's been in a shed since. It was originally from near Taunton so it's back in Somerset again. Looks as if it originally had a pre-suffix plate that's been sold as the one it's got is non-transferable. Was a -YB reg which is local to these parts. Got -OD now which is more of a Devon reg, not to worry. On to the pics!       It's been brush painted many years ago, which only adds to it's patina and ratty-ness. I'm going to leave it as is, just keep treating the rust to an oily rag once in a while. I think it would look smart on white walls, so I'll probably do that. Got to get it running first though! |

Actually, I've changed my mind. Don't smoke it as is, sell it to me instead! ;D Excellent purchase dubzi, looking forward to seeing it on whitewalls. |

Just been fiddling.....
That engine is seized SOLID. Can't even dismantle it.
Will be on the lookout for a replacement I think.

get the motor out. stand it up on end and pour some boiling hot oil down the plug hole. leave it to stand a day or so. repeat if ness. ive done it to a bike that sat on its side in a garden with no carb on!!! for 25 years. and got it un seized. then its just a case of rings? or rings and rebore at worst  |
