2 3/4 hp restoration project sought
« on: 09 Aug 2019 at 13:17 »
Having recently joined the forum and introduced myself in the General Discussion section I’d now like to post my “wanted” advert.
I’m looking for a restoration project to keep me busy over the coming winter and am ideally looking for an early vintage 2 3/4 hp bike.
A complete machine would be ideal, but is by no means essential, and all/any offerings will be seriously considered!

Many thanks in anticipation and best wishes to all,

David

Hi
What sort of money are we talking about ?
I have a running 1919 example for sale , it has a rather unique 3 jet Binks carburettor fitted which was only manufactured for a couple of years ,it works very well with no more fiddling with air and throttle levers good mixture right through the range.
tell me what you think this unique package is worth to you !
Regards
Clive
