silverwood Posted December 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 Merry Christmas everyone. I've been a bit quiet on this as the someone skipped the queue on the bike and bought it before me. Rather gutting as the seller had put off my viewing until the weekend but ended up accommodating another guy who couldn't wait. I've been looking around at everything else on offer and nothing seems to make sense as much as the Montesa, so I'm still on the look out for one. If anyone can steer me in the right direction please do so. I'm hoping to spend no more than Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverwood Posted December 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 That's exactly why I want one! My uncle Robbie used to say "what's for you won't go by you". It doesn't quite feel like that at the moment but I'm trying to believe in it! What's everyone's opinions on the pre Showa equipped bikes? Is it worth me sticking to trying to find a good '01-'04 or should I be equally open to a well looked after '99 etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
