October 9, 201411 yr Thanks for the great photos, on the left side of the de stickered bikes seat unit there are four drilled holes that are also on my seat unit, can you tell me what they were for? I was going to fill them when I refurbish the unit. Thanks Allyboy
October 27, 201411 yr Yesterday racing the last race of catalan championship. Some few problems with altitude jettings!! Edited October 27, 201411 yr by jaumetgn
November 1, 201411 yr My refurbished late '71/early '72 Montesa Cota 247, before and after shots, I still have a few things to finish like new rear shock, foam and cover on seat pan I made, and find cam and lever for the front brake since it was missing. But it is rideable now.
November 2, 201411 yr I agree... another great save!! I'm sure they languish in some sort of motorcycle purgatory waiting for a saviour!! Mags
November 4, 201411 yr Here is my first montesa, Im hoping i know where all the bolts go ! I bought it on a pallet, its had a new bottom end, i've just bought a new top end. Time to tackle the rest of the bike
November 4, 201411 yr Author Here is my first montesa, Im hoping i know where all the bolts go ! I bought it on a pallet, its had a new bottom end, i've just bought a new top end. Time to tackle the rest of the bike I believe I was bidding against you on ebay! Hahaa Heres another picture of my bike - And a picture of how it currently sits a couple of weeks after the first pictures
November 5, 201411 yr guessing you were trying to buy it for spares then? The pallet was about £45, but then i got stung with a £30 collection charge as he went home at 5pm..10 mins before the courier tried to collect ! .. so didnt end up being quiet the bargin. But Im looking forward to having it back together. Saving the bike, rather than stripping it

But Im looking forward to having it back together. Saving the bike, rather than stripping it That was the plan! I was going to do the top end on my bike any way but I thought may as well do a full rebuild if I had a spare engine but you then out bid me! Good luck with putting it back together!!!
November 7, 201411 yr Cheers bud, considering a crank is now £250, it was worth buying for the bottom end alone, it is crazy money these honda parts now Thinking about an RTL scheme, i'll put up the finished article, Edited November 7, 201411 yr by magicmat

December 16, 201411 yr Wow, how did I miss this thread? A pic from what, 4 years ago - Since then, a '99 315 had joined the party. Not mine, I'm caretaking for it. No, I'm not an HRC Montesa addict at all!
