This was an un-restored GT380 model A from 1977 and in very good order.

Purchased in 2000 from a guy in Shropshire who had owned it since the 1970's.

Bike had been stored for a couple of years but had been kept running and covered in WD40 so condition is excellent.

I'd used the bike every year since I got in. Eventually sold in 2014 due to lack of space in garage.

Ran a Piper 3-1 on it for a time, what a noise!

Also fitted the Italian alloys to see what they looked like.
