Life gets in the way, and I just don't have the time to fiddle around with this bike anymore, Hoping to find a good new home for it.

I purchased it about 3 years ago as a barn find from its original owner. It took a little love to get it back running but run it does. I acquired plenty of spare parts, and enough oil filters to last for its lifetime. Not pristine, but not a rust bucket.

Selling As Is,

Known Issues that I can remember Neutral indicator does not work, I have struggled to find the right cable, engine will start, but 'N' light will not indicate.
Starter solenoid is probably stuck open, the last time I attempted to start, the starter refused to stop until I disconnected the battery. Kick start is always an option, so bypassing this is all together may be the way to go, or fiddling with that solenoid to eliminate the short.

Offers entertained, would need to trailer it away. Located in Maine.

These are getting scarce, but it's not a "known Brit brand" like BSA/Triumph/Matchless/etc. either. Clean title is a sales plus.

I'd start at $2500 and take the first $2000 or so cash that showed up. Craigslist gets good exposure.

Or start at $4500 and see what happens - depends on how much you enjoy fielding inane buyer questions.
A trifecta of Pre-Unit Bullets: a Red Deluxe 500, a Green Standard 500, and a Black ES 350.
