This bike won the Vic series in early 2000s with a guy by the name of Paul Wheeler onboard.Rebuilt by Graham Billington (Billy) to be ridden at the Victoria club club series in 2006/2007/2008 by his sons Since then it was sold to someone with no mechanical aptitude at all who seized it on the back straight of Pukekohe.Billy bought the bike back and replaced the sleeve in the barrel ,piston and rings.
We purchased it as an introduction to racing for our oldest son.
Other than being started up when delivered to us by Billy and a couple of other times since it has sat in the garage gathering dust. Basicly it hasn't been ridden since the rebuild. Clearly it was a competitive 150 street stock bike and would make the perfect introduction to racing or perhaps a great return to racing bike.
We would love to see the bike out there competing as it should be. --The pacific club summer series is just around the corner....
The speedo reading is just a number in the box as it doesn t have a speedo and the year is best guess
To answer one odvious question. This is purely a race bike with no road gear available.

Nope.

Perhaps "With the intention of" would have been a better choice of words..?
