rich1975 Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 Hello everyone, Bought myself a Montesa Cota 247 project yesterday and joined the site today. I've found loads of handy advice already. The bike was being sold as an Ulf Karlson replica but I was dubious about that. It also has the odd distinction of the rear brake and gear levers being on the left. The frame number 21M3454 is 1971 when the brake was on the left and gears on the right. I'm guessing the frame and engine numbers should match. If so this suggests the engine (21M21916) is from a 1976 when the gears were on the left, hence the strange lever set-up. It ain't no Karlson rep. I'll tart her up a bit and ride her anyway. Here she is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
