g4321 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Wonder why he's selling it ? unsure.gif Possibly its because he realised that if he took the bike out of his garage and rode it (worse still rode it offroad as it was meant to be used) it would no longer look as pristine as it does and would not be worth the money he spent on rebuilding it.

nigel dabster Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 I think that its a lovely bike but begs the question why? The later 340's were so much better and the earlier ones more interesting, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spud Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 My first bike was a Bultaco 350. I bought it in the mid eighties when i was not even a teenager. I remember it being very powerful bike (don't laugh). I used to be able to hook by legs over the bars a pulls wheelies in third and forth gears. It was a complete animal to ride slowly and came off an outfit unit. I has always wondered what tuning kits there are for Bultaco 350? The bike advertised is in exceptional condition i'm very tempted to bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marky g Posted October 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 (edited) In my view, EBAY isn't the place to get the best price for selling stuff...it's always a buyers market on EBAY. Good place to get your machine noticed though Classic mags and classic shows seem to be the place to find decent tack these days, loads of trials bikes for sale at the recent Stafford show. On another note, what bike do you think will be a classic in years to come from todays stable ?...4rt??

woody Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 I agree, ebay is generally a seller's market as some people just get caught up in bidding fever of 'you're not having it, I am'.
