Certainly looks like a well cared for example, any particular reason you want to sell? Fancy a change in general?
 
Here's one for you Mort - not the first time I've posted this on the Forum. Bought it 'cos I love the reaction from my mates - they hated it (and I loved that!)

Monocoque frame, water cooled, shaft drive, flat horizontal twin, leg guards, running boards - lots not to like! It's so ugly I thought it was brilliant. :lol:

Velocette LE 200 from 1967. Noddy bike |(police used them - heaven knows how - it produces 8hp and a relaxed run doesn't begin to describe it - the power was so pathetic I couldn't get on with it (had to trailer it everywhere) swopped it for a Triumph 650 twin café racer instead :lol:)

Killed off Velocette as a manufacturer before the Japanese bikes arrived. . . .

No, just fancy a change - I was going to sell last year but bought the Zed instead :D
Longest I've ever had a bike (or car).
Never let me down and only done 25k (2000 model)
 
Another history lesson - (After 3 Suzuki GS 1000s) 1993 Triumph Daytona 1200 - we had this bike the longest of all - followed by a Bandit and VFR800i - much preferred owning this Triumph - felt like an event every time we rode it - great two up.
