That is a gem, I love that model, to find one that intact is very rare.....Suzuki made a lot of winners in 77. Oldmate was pretty good with his price, ebay would have returned a few more $ I think.

If that was closer I'd have been all over it steal at that price for the condition it is in they are still about.

Why is it these pearler bikes ALWAYS come up just after you've purpose built one for the class ;D

Still, that's no excuse to not have bought it. With the Nats in SA in a couple of months it would have been pretty easy to get it there . Still kicking myself. :-\

Are those alloy tanks worth much??
Title: Re: Very original 77 PE250 in WA

The PE B alloy tank would be the cheapest alloy tank you could buy, they are always out there....how many do you want?.....they will be worth gold soon as the plastic tanks keep cracking and supply dry's up.

Thank you CG
Nothing touched ~ as "NEW". Rego expired last week, only new shocks needed, oil good, runs well. Renewed faith that they are still out there.
