Nuovo Falcone Militare classic 500cc single 1972. Tax and MOT exempt. This is a ride and restore bike and priced with that in mind. The photos give the best idea of general condition. The forks are soft and require maintenace or possibly new internals before riding any distance. There is a little rust on the front wheel rim and pitting on other brightwork. Original piggy back exhaust is solid and working well. Engine starts easily - there is a method for this. There are no leaks. It has the oil feed to head upgrade and an oil cooler mounted behind the rider's saddle. The engine does not smoke or rattle and pulls strongly with the throttle open and ticks over happliy when warmed up. The dual single seats are in very good condition with no holes or splits. Currently running with a modern air filter but the original air filter box comes with the bike should you wish to use that instead. There are also a few miscellaneous spares in a small box. Drum brakes are very strong. There is also a folder full of info and a print out of a manual plus a number of magazine articles.
Bike comes with three keys - the ignition and one each for the two tool boxes. Imported from Europe and registered in the UK in 2002. V5 in my name.
