Indeed, it must've been too hard to pass up! How does it run?
Is that a 450 in the background? Is it a gas burner?

Just like Weld, I zoomed in on the old Benz as well :-)
Awesome bike also. Rare find!

The benz is a 250...
under the cover to the right is a mint TR7 & behind that is a 200SX also mint with 45,000km on it.. out in the back shed is a " can't remember what it is" old open top sports car "morgon?" sitting between a old Audi & some other old car....all in near perfect condiction He had a car sales most of his life.... He also had 2 Montesa H6 250 Enduros... Has the sales records going back for ever.. hes going to look up who bought them / where they went.. He dose know one ended up on a farm not to far from where he is.... I'm hopeing it may be laying in back of a hay shed forgotten about...

I'd like to see a pic of the 200SX. That was my buddy Jimmy's first car when he was 17 :-)

Congratulations, beautiful bike!
Just the fork boots seem to look a little unusual... |
