Would quite like an Orion

But maybe not this one. Even if does have its own loft conversion

That's exactly what my 1987 onion did , I had an absolute legend of a college lecturer who managed to weld up the cassette while I stood above it with an air hose, didn't even mark the paint on the main roof panel! 🎉

*Terrifying

Always forgot your surname is Of 🤣

It has certainly had a few er, modifications. 200L of LPG, electric drivers seat, extra clocks/dials. Possibly the carbon fibre rear spring upgrade? Either that engine is heavily modified or someone is telling porkies, pretty sure the 3.5 RV8 was 150-190bhp rather than the 250 stated....oh and looks like there is a slight leak on the diff, and those lpg tanks look in very dubious condition.
Oh and get good with a welder for future years!

But yes, buy it, would be great! Just need a 1970s colour scheme on the vee to match.

Pretty sure that has been through the hands of a few AS members. In fact, in the second picture it is parked outside @Jikovron’s house. (The seller does admit to using old photos from  before he bought it.)

Reckon it’s worth taking on?

How great is that? Should be left exactly how it is and just ridden/enjoyed.

If it were orange it could be my very first road bike.

HNK75N

In 1980 I paid £130 ,£15 for a Nolan helmet and £28 for a Rider Policy from my savings of £160...

For the asking price I would expect it to have the right exhaust on tho!

I wouldn’t like to say. It looks like it’s been stood a while. I seem to remember someone on here doing quite a bit of work on it but struggling to sell when the time came. Would be expensive getting it back from Northern Island, so unless you’re really keen probably not worthwhile, but it does have lots of appeal as a rarity.

These Dyson (and the FLF) kitted KHs were ace. This one has a 400 motor and if that exhaust is a Piper, it'll sound utterly utterly  fucking fantastic coming off the revs on full chat.

Serious coin that though, and still reg'd as a 250.

I had a 400 Ian Dyson too (VAV 314S). Mine had 3 seperate "Allspeed" expansion chambers, which sounded great.

Not as great as the Piper 3 into 1 on my Suzuki GT550. That was probaly the best sounding two stroke I ever owned, but the Piper ruined not just performance, but also the mpg (often down to 18mpg).

A lad I knew back in the day had a Piper 3-1 on his GT550 (TMB 525R) and I still haven't heard a 2 stroke sound as good as that. As you say, strangled performance but what a sound track!

 

Ps: managed to achieve 16MPG on a standard GT380 once, that was a bit of a lesson!

'For the thickies - you can not drive this away as diesel is leaking from the pump and when it get hot it will badab boom !'

'NO Buy Now'

'£800. Submit bid. Make Offer. Watch this item'

For the thickies-you can't buy it now, but you can make an offer which they can accept and therefore you can buy it now.

Does diesel ‘badab boom’ ? 
I think not (mostly)

anyone want to point out that the seller might be the thicky?
