"ABSOLUTELY STUNNING"

YEAH!!!!!!! Very nice!!!
Did you restored that seat yourself?

The only thing I'd change, is re-fit the original air box.
Other than that: perfect in every way!!!

hi there thanks all for the comments. yeah i restored the full bike my self. as for the seat its the original top then i got someone to restore the foam and sides with the honda print on the back.
the reason for the air box is when i bought the bike the original st70 engin was totaly nacked. so at the time i could only get a c 70 engin so i put that in and the original air box was a tight fit as it was just catching the frame ever so slightly.

iv got the original air box and all the old parts i took off and replaced with new. even 99% of the nuts and bolts were changed for stainless and ovcoure i have all reciets for what i bought.


the reason for the pics is iam actually thinking about maybe selling the bike and was wanting to no roughly what people genuinly thought it was worth?

please message me back thanks james.

I can't comment on that, as the prices between Belgium and the U.K. or USA differ a lot.
Here, 3000€ would be a realistic price.

But I'm sure you will regret the sale in the end, no matter how much it will sell for.

All i can say james is STUNNING in everyway i would love to take it off your hands and it would sit next to my candy ruby red one in my bedroom! thats right bedroom! its not a misprint if you do sell it makesure it goes to a good home i am looking for another one at minute but coz i want one i am finding it hard best regards lee

Hi
Late last year a totally original untouched 16 miles lady dax went for £1650 but it needed to be picked up from Ireland,prices at the moment are mad if you look on Ebay between £1000 to £2000 best bet is dont sell it I was told restored models are less desireable but I believe these bike should be used not just show ponies. As Waynus said you will regret selling it so use it, I go out on mine as often as I can, and as my 1969 ST50 is ready for MOT and its first registration ever I can spend more time out and about
regards Tufty
P.S the airboxes are an absolute pig to fit with the fuel lines etc but they do look good

Yes its because the fuel pipe you buy today is thicker! but mine is a c70 engine and about 30minutes swearing and a box full of plasters and it was on, ha ha

well iam open to offers if anyone is interested.?

iam after a bigger bike like a bsa or triumph so the money my dax makes will go towards another project and hopefully it will be as good as this one

thanks james

sorry james its worth more money than ive got to spend at minute. i am looking at rough ones on ebay but if you put a price on it you never now???? goodluck with your new project
