Just bought myself the bike i have wanted since i was 17, i have had the Gt125, Gt185 and Gt250 and numerous other 2 strokes in the past, this one has been well looked after and had a comprehensive restoration over the past 15 years with its previous owner, I am just about to fit electronic ignition as i remember years ago how quick you could get engine problems with poor ignition timing, its pretty much standard engine wise - still runs std size pistons with a set of nos barrels, virtually all bolts and fittings , spokes etc have been replaced with stainless, all the brightwork has been triple chromed, looking forward to some nice weather and take it around a few shows if we can this year.

Very nice. I do like Suzy triples, and had 'several' 550s plus a Hippo.
Which bit of the UK are you in? I'm in South Yorkshire, near Barnsley.

Hi, I used to live in Gods country (S. Yorkshire ) until we returned to Newark on Trent Notts, and the bike came from a really nice guy in Wakefield.

Very pretty bike. The weather is on the change, so you'll be able to get out and enjoy it soon.
