Blue Oyster Don't Fear The Reaper
Thank You to the NHS for keeping me after stomach decided to do me in.
Tried to buy a Pursang but it fell through thoe bought a Tank cheap months ago incase I needed one but never spraying again just haven't got the skill. When we all get Vaccine's am hoping the bike show's will come back so can buy part's as just want to get the mark 6 running before I get too ill. Thoe I picked a difficult hobby with finding parts I do love the sound of the Pursang

So nice to have you back . I didn't know you had been ill, hope it doesn't stop you working on your bikes.
It's good to have a hobby to come back to. I even started looking up all these bikes you were working on.
my father took part in 24 hour trials on a Velocette many years ago and won a lot of medals and awards.
Then he went into Hillclimbs in a car. He was a founder member of the Wallasey Motor Club.
Anyway, I'm sure we all wish you to get back to good health and keep us informed about your bikes progress.

Kid Rock "All Summer Long"
Morning Bought some Side Oval graphics looked at Bultaco and wanted a extra £4 for the thumps up Logo then looked at plain one thoe same size. I thought Not paying extra just for a tiny Logo so went for plain. Do look big but need to buy Numbers for the Oval thoe I need the Motorcycle shops open as need a chain and Air filter foam and spring's and seat cover with foam the list goes on. The price of the Pursang now is insane only over a year ago could buy a Mark 6 350 for £2000 now there £3500 with a lick of paint and a buffer. ( Picture of a Pursang with large Oval )

U2 Still Haven't Found What Am Looking For "Astro"
Decided to put the 3 Sherpa's on Gumtree for a Trade for a Pursang.
I believe got more chance winning the Lottery than finding someone to trade with.
The American Seller with Astro has dropped his price so believe it's £1970 now. Pity it's Not in UK would buy it straight away.
It's always the same to for away to buy or different country.

Morning Have been looking at a Yamaha TT500 which was put on HH Classic Auction was Valued at £2500 to £3500. So the Auction was yesterday and thought Why Not as always ridden 2 Strokes. Anyway being a cheap skate I threw some in the middle range then one for £3500. The price it Sold was £3910 with Auction fees so must of been close. The Thumper looked Nice with V5 and spare's. My back went a few week's ago and not healing so maybe a good thing that I didn't win Nah I Wanted It. Picture of TT500

Morning.
Was Sulking that i didn't bid enough for the TT500 I am so Crap at bidding as to scared to do live incase i pay well over the Guide price.
I have decided to Sell my Sherpa Bike's on EBay really didn't want to Sell just trade.
I knew the Chance's where Very Slim on a trade just don't like selling rather just give them away so don't have to deal with the stress.
Been slowly dumping contents of house as still looking at buying a house and can NOT take Sherpa Bike's as Mrs said "You can take 2 Bike's".
So of course keeping the mark 5 and 6 and Pursang engine's but I want another Pursang so have some hobby as boredom can effect your Mental Health.
Haven't done any work with Bike's Arthritis is hurting my back and just about have the energy to drag my backside down stair's but will when better I hope ?.
Picture of 250cc Model 198 just slotted together what I had missing this and that but majority there.
Seen worse and put a low price on it what am willing to accept all detail's on EBay with Pictures.
Enjoy the Sun thoe be careful if sweating Profusely drink lots of fluid and Fan.

Led Zeppelin Ramble On.
Morning.
My Sherpa 198 Model didn't Sell on EBay for £900 thoe seen worst go for a lot more. I believe it was because of screw case broken off from main case. Thoe lot's brake off because of chain snapping and whipping back when not maintained or used as field bike's. So dilemma what am I going to do thinking off scavenging the best part's from both bikes and build one then put the Light's on what I Forgot. So didn't want to start striping Sherpa's want to finish the Pursang. Keeping looking for a Mark 5 or 6 Pursang Exhaust what takes my Silencer then put the 175 mark 6 engine in the frame. Anyway took some pictures of my light's the Sherpa light look's Good also Ossa and Montesa light are OK as well but lightbulb's might need replacing as never tested them. Picked up a Manuel on wiring the light's missing a bit for rear brake. Have wiring off a Montesa what I collected a few year's ago. Will have a go tomorrow stripping bike's then rebuilding properly if back is OK. The bike's wear mainly thrown together to see what part's missing as had the Sherpa 199A in bit's as well.
