We've done this. Throw your money away - it's not a real Jota and the seller is being slightly less than honest.
OK. Sorry chaps !!! Cheeky bastard though - still goes to show you should know something about classic bikes before you start with the drooling. 'Tis a nice looking thing though, no?
Oh, how true, how true. I've lost count of the number of times I've seen a Jap classic advertised as 100% original, when it's anything but. And then there are all the bods disguising cooking BritShit models as hotsy-totsy sports versions, though I really know sweet FA about ShiteOldBritBikes. It is, but a real Jota looks nicer ;-)
Yes, dressed up. And the seller's protestations about it being too early to be recorded by Slater Bros, or something, are laughable.
I must remember to ask the old man if he's still in touch with Roger. I've got a vague memory of them having a big falling out over a R100RS, but if they kissed & made up, I'll get him to have a dig into the Jota story. -- Krusty '03 Tiger 955i '02 MV Senna (for sale) '96 Tiger (for sale) '79 Fantic Hiro 250 (for sale) '81 Corvette (for sale)
