AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
No reserve price:
Famous model by now; this ’80s bike is from the second series (thus the better cam chain tensioner).
A good base for a café racer, but even in its original form a well-drivable motorcycle; even now. Not for nothing was it loved at the time by couriers who basically lived on such a machine.
Has stood idle for a long time under less favorable conditions, so there is now mainly cosmetic work to do, such as renewing the pillion seat; that already makes a big difference to the look. And days of polishing… Technically it’s not bad: not difficult, just some one-off around-work. Even the tires are good.
After that it’s actually low-maintenance again. The motorcycle’s registration papers are in order. Starting, preparing the front brake, and a test run have been done. With a battery and fuel in it you can ride off right away. And whatever you want to beautify for the eye, of course…
Seller's Story
Now half a century as a collector, later a dealer, still a collector, moped/motorcycle journalist, appraiser and author of books. Advocacy in classic vehicles and currently a member of the FEHAC Commission Mobile Erfoed. Also: examiner for technical schools. Started in 1969; never stopped.
That I am also active in the care sector (the complex multi-problem issues) is relevant to the extent that young people who have lost their way can sometimes be steered back onto the right path via mopeds and/or motorcycles.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
