trialsrfun Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Congrats on your Bulto purchase. If you search here http://cemoto.tripod.com/bultaco.htm you should find your bike. Many people I have spoken to who ride Bultaco claim the best replacement carb is the Mikuni. Good luck with the restoration. Exhaust pipes seem to appear on the sale site so keep looking.

bultacosteve Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 The M199 Sherpa T was produced from around 1978 to 1980. For this reason it would be impossible to date the bike unless it has registration papers. In any case the year isn't important. The only important numbers are the ones on the frame and engine. These denote what model the bike is. In your case it is a 325cc sherpa t. Almost all parts are available for this bike. Try Bultaco uk (www.bultacouk.com). I'm sure they will stock everything you are after for that bike. Ebay is a good source for parts too. Exhaust systems regularly come up for sale. You can fit a mikuni carb or go with the original bing. I would contact bultaco uk first, tell them what model you have and what you need and they can get you started. I highly recommend you get a parts and service manual for the bike. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bultacosteve Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 I didnt see the A at the end of the serial number when you previously posted. So yes that model was produced starting in 1980. Congrats nice bike!! Anytime you order parts from any Bultaco parts dealer always state the full serial number as this will more accurately reflect what parts the bike may or may not use. The year reference makes no differnce in what parts the bike uses only the serial number will. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give Bultaco UK a call, tell them your full frame number and they will be able to tell you the date the bike was imported into the UK , and therefore determine when it was produced.
