late night shopping in Bristol

Post  Guest on Fri Apr 15, 2011 12:03 am

Just been to pick it up, the missing bit of cowl is going to be posted onto me.

I spent over what I should have but 1 I have always said if one came up grab it! 2 its the 1st I seen for sale in a while 3 this on is coming in the box with me!, 4 was cheaper then a Amanco and there is less of them Very Happy so made myself feel better about paying what I did on the car ride back! I does run as is (if it had a tank) a little miffed it need a little work to make it perfect!
Cheers Steve

It started fine, I didnt like how it run, couldn't get it slow enough for my liking, plus I didn't like the thin flywheel.

Right place, Right time right size, and its one of the less seen Stuart Turner, so to a stuart fan not one to miss, I like the look of the engine, just after a while the outboard thin flywheel just didnt look right to the engine to me, I dont like the Sattley but I still have it. Again what does it matter what I do with my money? so please let me buy and sell my engines as I see fit. I posted this picture as I thought we would be more intrested in this quite rare engine instead of picking holes in me! I wont bother in future.

Cheers Steve

Cheers Tony, It was the Mrs Idea! I kind of think I should have bought the Mathews lite at Enstone, but am more then happy with the Stuart, I bet they will start coming out of the wood work now!

Been doing a little digging, apparently this is one of 7 Shocked known Engines, which is nice

Correction 1 of 10.


Cheers Steve
