Konig Outfit on Ebay.

Unread post by Kensei »

Can't post the link (using my phone) but there is a Konig outfit for sale on ebay, starting price £3.5k.

Seller says he'd prefer to sell it outside the UK. Seems odd to me.

Wish I had the pennies for it.


This is the link:

Still sounds optimistic - Factory paperwork claimed 95hp at the crank from the standard 680 motor (85hp from a 500, and 105hp from a 750) !

Why prefer a non-UK sale? Maybe something a tad moody about the beast 8-)

Just a thought maybe he does`nt want the next owner to beat him not much chance if it goes abroad.

Cynical Moi???

Is it because it's rear exit so couldn't be raced with the CRMC or is that rule universal?
