Andy Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Were I in the market for such a bike I wouldn't buy this on the basis that the seller's first language clearly isn't English making the description look like it has been written by a Nigerian scammer...

suzuki250 Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) It’s that rare the 250 gaskets won’t fit, even though it’s a 325! Didn’t all the 325 beamish’s have reed valves on the barrel? Edited September 23, 2013 by suzuki250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beamish owners club Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 All Beamish' are rare, yes they all have a chrome frame made of 531 tubing, yes all the black engine models have an alloy bash plate and an alloy tank and yes they all had a reed valve but there are only about 1,000 of them left running - mostly tucked away in someone's shed it's true. But do you ever see one at a trial? Doubtful, they are all cosseted away in sheds! If you really want to see a rare one, go to the home page of my website www.beamishownersclub.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toofasttim Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Were I in the market for such a bike I wouldn't buy this on the basis that the seller's first language clearly isn't English making the description look like it has been written by a Nigerian scammer... On the other hand he clearly states that it uses 531 tubing. I doubt a Nigerian scammer would either know that or bother putting it in the description Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
