Description
Hi. for sale is my wonderful 1950 Sunbeam S8. She is a real cracker. I bought her to use as a relaxing bike for a gentile cabby round on on sunny days and that she does perfectly. She has had a full overhaul very recently at Stewart engineering all fully documented with receipts etc. She also had some upgrades including the sump extension. as far as I understand she is pretty much all original and what drew me to this particular bike is that she is a rideable classic. by that she is mechanically sound but bears signs of her true age unlike the fully concours bikes available that look like new copies. I feel that old bikes should look old! She comes with a large folder which contains her entire. extensive history as far as I can see as well as an original manual and instruction manuals plus the entire wiring diagram and parts diagram. Really too much to list. Also included is a pair of pillion footrests. She has always been enthusiast owned and has lived inside since I owned her. Obviously Tax and MOT is free. however. she is MOT'ed until October this year and tax is still current.
Please understand that I have been Riding motorcycles for 26 years mostly insane exotica but I have owned a few older bikes. nothing this old though and despite knowing a thing or two about bikes. I would in no way call myself an expert. certainly not regarding this Sunbeam. so if you would like any extra info please contact me and I will do my best to help. Genuine bike. so genuine enquiries please. Any questions contact me.
