My “New” 750
Posted: Sun Oct 04, 2020 10:22 am
Hi all,
It has been a long time since I have checked in here.
Earlier this week, I went up to my brother’s place in Broken Hill, NSW (Australia), and picked up a 1989 3VA Super T, which my brother found in Wilcannia, and quiet generously sold to me. It is in very rough condition, and is missing all of the fairing panels, the seat and a few other parts. From what my brother was told by the guy he bought it from, it has not been run for at least 9 or 10 years.
Over the past few days, I have carried out a service on it, stripped and cleaned the carbies, and now have it up and running. I am currently stripping the brakes and will be rebuilding them once I get all the parts I have ordered.
I have been online trying to find a seat, but they appear to be in short supply. Does anyone have a spare seat that they would be willing to sell? It doesn’t have to be perfect. I would be happy to find a good seat base with a usable foam.
