He reckoned that he managed to start it in the kickstart during the week at work beforehand & had tried tow starting with a forklift but couldn't get it to go over compression.
Problem in weekend was lack of spark, hopefully just a loose wire

I've been watching this CCM with interest, it started at 7,000 pounds and is now 9,600 and reserve not met.. wonder what it will sell for?
Great looking bike and a real collectors item, would be a shame to ride it but a lot of $$$ to have sitting unused.

120,000 pounds and climbing. Obviously lots of Greek vmx enthusiasts

Maybe they were checking to see what the reserve was?

Title: Re: ccm
Post by: TT5 Matt on February 28, 2012, 12:03:47 am

well they should have found the reserve with bids like that!! :o ;D yeah always wanted a ccm back in the day but got talked out of buying one by an old pommie bike racer that said they were heaps of shite and the tt500 was a better bike so brought sa mx racer Dave Basham's much modded tt500d and had alot of fun on that bike

with BSA engines starting is in inverse proportion to the compression ratio..... mine starts completely reliably, second kick cold and 52nd kick hot  ;D
