Jimmy Ellis 1983 495 KTM for sale
« on: April 21, 2015, 08:20:37 pm »
Hi people as you know don't know how to post pics, below is email conversation so contact Peter if u want more info or pics.

Hi Rosco
 
How are you?  I’m a bit late replying too.
 
I have a picture I found on the computer, I have been busy and kept forgetting about it.
 
If you know someone who would like to buy it, that would be great as I have had the bike for over 25 years, I had lots of fun, its a great bike to ride.
 
The clutch stuffed up and along came the children, it all went on a to do list, that never got done.
 
The bike is all there except for the clutch plates. If you want to make an offer I will consider it.
 
Regards
 
Peter White

Hi Rosco
 
Just read your post from 2013 asking about Jimmy Ellis race bike.  I own his 1983 495 KTM made by Burt Flood.
 
I have owned it for 25 years or more. Sadly its not going at the moment had a hard time trying to find clutch plates for it.
 
I lost interest and its just been sitting in my back yard. Before the clutch shit itself it use to go like the wind.
 
This bike he only rode for 1 year and won the championship on it.
 
All the best
 
Regards
