Its the Holy Grail in Burner Circles...

They are a quality built bike and VERY VERY RARE... and to find one in such 'original' condition is a real scoop!!

Personally I wouldn't have paid that much... but then I'm broke...

i'm sure its a very nice bike
but just can't forget ,getting on the train ,to go to broadmarsh bumps in nottingham on a saturday ,in the 80's
and running out of room for the bikes ,,,,so the first thing to be thrown off the train , was the burners to make room for decent bikes

Seriously though

I was watching this all this week , just to see what it was gonna make
cos I knew they are like Hen's teeth $:-\$
They were the flagship Burner , I remember Andy Lennon round our way having one and he was one of the older boys and a decent racer

These before the days of Ruffell joining, I think or did he actually ride one ?
