HD350 easy project to complete
I have for sale an as released by the army a 1993 MT350 25KL25 . I have all the release paperwork so you would be the first owner upon registration.
Before the army released the bike it looks like they very kindly put in a new engine (late engine number and little sign of use cf to speedometer, by the way the trip does work), front wheel, headlight, cowl and silencer as they have clearly not done many miles.
The bike was sold by auction at Withams in 2008 and has sat in a shed since then.
I have done the harder part of the project and replaced the numerous bits that had gone missing in action between sale and shed and/or needed to be replaced because they were broken or didn't work. Put on a new battery and using the workshop fuel tank got it started and it runs very well, no sprag issues etc.
Not many bad points to list. The main one is that the tank is rather rusty inside, but I have seen a lot worse and I know it can be cleaned out.
Needs a few new indicator bulbs and maybe a flasher unit, otherwise all electrics are working as they should.
I would only rate the front panniers as average/below average condition, but can be easily refreshed with new locks etc.
If I was keeping the bike I would put new braided brake hoses on and also service the front forks with new oil and seals and instal a new side stand bush to take up the slack, not that it doesn't work, rather I like things to work as best they can.
It would make an ideal simple project and a good intro to these bikes. Registration is straight forward and instructions are available on this site.
If the person buying this is a new member then I will include a hard copy of the manual and a service kit ( oil and air filters, cambelt and spark plug).
I would be happy to finish the project and get it an MOT on the frame VIN, if you dont want to do that yourself, subject to an agreed scope/price etc.
I also have a good clean tank complete with army dents to save you the trouble of cleaning and de rusting the tank.
As you can see its complete and in very good condition and not something that comes up very often now.
Looking for £1800 but open to offers over this amount.
