Hello,

I am 29 years old and coming from East of France (Besancon)
I have just bought a 1951 A10 which is I think (hope) in good conditions except of course a couple of small problems

I an quite new in the "oldies" world.
Otherwise I own a couple of Jaguar from the 90's which are also taking a lot of my time...

Looking forward to read you :)

Marc

Bienvenue! Excellent de voir un Français sur le forum.

Have spent quite some time in France (around 15 years actually!)

Thanks :)

I, of course, have the same as yours.
Except the colors but I guess that mine (grey/black) is not a standard one
Your pics are incredibly nice !!
If you have an higher resolution I would be glad to put one of them as wallpaper on my computer :)
It's funny I that you also have a XT 500, I have unmounted one on saturday to change the timing chain.

Edit :
Is this "standard" (found here, not mine) ?

G'day Marc,  .
I'd say its a A7 Star Twin by the tank.
Nearly got all the engine bits for a rebuild on my XT soon.
Cheers

Sorry... 
Just talking about the color...

Here is a photo with its previous owner :

Any comments are welcome :)
I have to learn so thank in advance :)
So might be a 1985 Yamaha I just trusted the guy...

Bit hard to see with that new helmet mate.
Bike looks great, no spots on the ground but is thaty a spanner in hand.
Cheers

Your pics are incredibly nice !!

Thanks, it's actually the country itself that is nice, so easy to do photography! & sorry, only got those scaled version of these pictures. Will try to make a long trip "to the south" this spring.

& great bike, report back on how it goes.

Hmm, what's with the multiple XT500's? I also have one (as well as an SR500). Is this the dirt bike of choice for the A7/A10 crowd?

I think it was the first real man's traily to come out of Japan.
Cheers

I'm back. Moving from Switzerland back to France has taken me a lot of time..
But the A10 is still working fine 
I'll have time to fix the small remaining problems 

Hope you are doing well !
