The bike in Darrell's
words:
I have been in contact
with the original owner who has confirmed it's history................
it's 1 of only 3 Supertune Avanti 225s that were built based on an SX 150
(to keep costs down), it has an unstamped TV200 engine modified to 225
spec, Amal Mk1, SX150 gearbox, high compression head, extra cooling added
to head cowling, 12V conversion with the zenner diode fixed behind the
mag housing to aide cooling. 200 forks, disc brake reverse pull which works
amazingly well and a 90mph speedo. The original owner also fitted the Ancilloti
Elvington seat which he purchased from Roys of Hornchurch in about 1969/70.
Hopefully I will be getting
some original spec sheets, stickers etc... from the original owner who
has them somewhere in his house !!! |
