In the words of the current owner:



"My Old man bought the Bike from a chap back in East London back in 1999/2000. My father rode the Bike for a few
years, but not as his daily commute and rather socially. The bike then stood for roughly 6 years, my brother
who's also based in East London the found a mechanic to revamp the bike
back into running condition. I caught wind of the above, being a bike
enthusiastic myself and being in Cape town with a relatively short
commute to work in town. I decided to bring it up to the Cape (mid 2017)
which i used as my mode of transport to work.

Reason
for selling - Currently in the process of applying for my work visa
over in New Zealand with the possible opportunity of Immigrating as
well."
