Oh that A7 rigid looks absolutley gorgeous! I'd love one of them.... I cant see if its a twin carb jobbie? Were these bikes ever Girder forks?

By the way.... talking of twin carbs.... Take a look at this! Only a thousand pounds!!  *surpr*

Sorry about the horrid long link.

OH... and errr I'm hoping to get to the Sammy Miller Museam maybe this weekend so I'll keep my eye open for decent shots to post!

Have a good Holiday out there, will be away from tomorrow until new year!

Cheers  *beer*

Hi Guys
  To my knowledge the only factory twin carb bike was the 49 A7 Star Twin and in 50 it went to a single carb.  Then in 64 they twin carbed the Lightening Rocket.

Yes, it is open for business again apparently. I will have to take a look next time I'm down in England. A lot of people have put in a huge amount of work to restore many of the exhibits which at first glance would have been deemed beyond repair.

Seller has lots of negative feedback !!!!!!
Anybody that looks into Ebay on a regular basis should add "negs" to there browser, its available for both IE and Firefox.
Do a google for toolhaus to find it

It allows for a right click to show ALL a sellers negative feedback
