The 741 in 1993

The 741 in 1993




The bike was a fairly reliable rider. I registered the bike in the days before VIN tags. It has a NZ license plate from that era. The registration label is dated 1998 as the last year it was used on the road.

Details...
Ignition switch : original, working.
Ammeter : original, working.
Battery : Lucas housing with small Jap 6v battery inside.
Speedo : original, working.
Blackout lights : Complete, working IIRC.
Fuel taps : both original, working.
Saddle bags : Believed to be original army issue with army number painted on.
Headlight : Lucas lens/reflector
Tire pump : original with clips.

Stand by for more pics as I find them...

    You have a tyre pump? Original? Marry me, I've been looking on the net for one to put on the WLA but the prices are a killer......

      Yes, these do turn up. Get a good look at my one once bike gets pulled from storage on Monday. Are WLA ones the same exact pattern??
