Where is it for fork sake Freaky? If you are going to post stuff like this at least have the commonsense to post the ad number or cut and paste the original ad. What you have posted is so useless and barely readible.

WHAT THE HELL IS A ISLO DUNSTAN , AS AN OWNER OF 7 ISLO (COOPER) BIKES, I HAVE NEVER SEEN AN ISLO DUNSTAN OR DATSAN OR DO YOU MEAN HONDA AS ISLO USE TO MAKE HONDA BIKES UNDER CONTRACT.

Its here firko for fork sake.  Seemed a fairly simple logical post i thought.  i figured if you want it youd know what it was. 

Beats the shit out of me its an oldgirl with fitted side panels, Islo motor and branded tank im reading off the side of it.  ill post a pic when i get home.

GRM  i thought made Trials bikes  and used ISLO engines

 I know what a GRM is. My mate Alan has two. I have no idea what a Dunstan is and what you are referring to. Learn to post properly Freaky.

Sorry i usually post from work and im limited on time and franky cant be bothered re checking every grammer and spelling, I figure you got plenty of time and if you can be bothered you can figure it out, if not dont read the post or get Graeme to put a spell checker button 

So Sorry let me replace my mispelled N with 2 LL's 

Dunstall was the guru for cafe racers back in the day and those into nortons would have picked up on it.   im not sure if this was a conversion frame and why he would have used a mexican motor but i do know. its like an early scambler or mx style thing maybe it ran another motor and this was a swap out for a cheap alternative, unfortunalty it has no history but it has a 70's plastic tank with the emblem on it that look like it fits right.   the frame has a serial number however that may prove to be from somthing else.  So who knows im only going on what i see before me and the little i know.  im realying on all you gurus out there to come up with the peices as its not in my area of expertise.

Wack up a picture when you get time Freaky. We can all see what you have on offer then. 

[Freakshow]

Those forks look like mexican Cerraini copies to me also.  Fuc knows maybe its a special order for someone who couldnt afford the real thing  maybe it was a clone of somthing else. 

Maybe its a piece of crap and the stickers came off his dads norton commando.

IHNFI  or it could be rare as shit and worth $20,000 MAico dollars

 Never, ever heard of Paul Dunstall dicking around with two-strokes at all, and certainly not trail bikes. I think you might be a victim of a random sticker application there, Freaky. But whack it up on ebay and try your luck. FWIW, Paul Dunstall made a swag of gear for Featherbed and Isolastic Norton twins, and his last effort was an 810 kit for the Mk 3 Commando, by which time he realised the futility of competing against the influx of Japanese rocketships, and gave the game away.

Looks like a Cooper Freaky. Different exhaustt than what Ive seen on them


 I havnt heard of Dunstall doing  dirt bikes but what the hell would I know

stop dicking about i will give you 50 bucks

Now that's better. Isn't easy when you try just that little bit harder? I do doubt it if the Norton boys would have picked up a "Dunstan" with a Moto Islo engine as being something they'd be familiar with. Thats stretching a really long bow. Paul Dunstall has nothing to do with this bike or anything to do with 2 strokes at all, let alone one made in Mexico. You really need to do some history research before you post this shit matey.
Now down to it. The bike's a Cooper by all indications. Looks to be in below average nick. I'll give you $400 for it.

IT'S A COOPER ENDURO BIKE WITH THE OPTIONAL REAR SWING/SHOCK MOD BLAIR HARLY DID ON THE COOPERS HE SOLD, BIT OF SHITTER, FITTED WITH A SHITTY PIPE FREAKY, THE ENGINE NUMBER SHOULD MATCH THE FRAME NUMBER, ENGINE NUMBER SHOULD HAVE A HORSES HEAD EITHER SIDE OF IT, FRAME NUMBER SHOULD START WITH SA-MO OR UX xxxxx, THE TANK IS FIBREGLASS, WORTH MAYBE $250, HALF THE PARTS ARE MISSING, IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THE PHOTO OF MY BIKE ON THIS POST.
