A7SS £1000 seized West Midlands
« on: 28.01. 2010 13:27 »
I'll bet it's gone by now. It's in this months Classic Bike Guide "Too many new parts to mention but engine seized, spares or repair, offers around £1000. ******* "
The photo shows alloy rims, chrome guards and bright yellow tank and side panels- no chrome. Possibly a later front end, can't see due to the angle the bike is sitting at.  
Has to be worth a grand!

If you buy it, you owe me a pint.

Hi Iain

If the guys has put it for sale in more then one magazine then he will get a lot of calls.

If I had been nearer and had seen it in time it would in my garage, as you said £1000.00 in these days does not get alot, it was a bargin for some one.

Early last year a guy I had know for many years had an a complete A7 in (large lumps) his shed with no intention  of doing any thing with it, so every time I meet him it was the usual comment was, please give first offer if you every think of selling it. Good news about the bike he said, (me thinks this is it) I got £500 for it, I walk away and find a quite corner and XXXXXXXX.
