Seller Description
This motorcycle was built in 1971 for use by the Croatian army. However it is apparent that it spent most of it’s life stored in a Eastern Bloc warehouse.It is one of a batch of low mileage machines that were imported into the UK in 2016.
It is now registered as a historic vehicle so does not require an MOT or road tax.It come with full documentation consisting of riders handbook, workshop manual, parts lists and wiring diagram.The custom modifications are based on the design concept of �keep it simple, there will be less to go wrong !’The frame has been de-lugged and powder coated.The swinging arm design has been improved by the use of bronze bearing bushes and the addition of grease nipples.The brakes have been re-lined with a modern high friction brake material and are very powerful.The fuel tank has been really thoroughly cleaned inside, pre-treated and sealed with POR15 ethanol proof tank sealant.The ignition system have been converted to an electronic system and the bike always starts first kick, even after winter storage, it then settles into the legendary Nuovo Falcone extra slow tickover..The original very heavy dynamo has been replaced by a Kubota alternator with a sold state voltage regulator and the original �car size’ battery has been replaced with a 3.4 AH AGM battery which is housed in a small box beneath the saddle.The weight savings have allowed a smaller rear sprocket to be fitted and I have calculated that the engine now fires once every meter of ground covered.Really relaxed riding !The wheels have been re-built using high quality Takasago Excel alloy rims shod with nice wide Avon Roadrider tyres.The foot pegs have been re-positioned and, combined with the laid back �beach bars’ and bespoke saddle, provide a very comfortable riding position.This is not a fast machine but will cruise at a comfortable 55 mph all day and return in excess of 60 mpg.It’s going to be a sad day when this bike is sold, however my workshop space is limited and a new project is being planned !One thing is for sure :- the new owner will just love it as I do.
