1979 SSD Darmah
Posted: Mon Sep 13, 2004 7:46 pm
I have always been interested in bikes, could practically ride before I could walk ... one of the advantages of growing up on a farm. Anyway, I've got the opportunity to buy a 1979 SSD Daramah for $3000 AUD. It's in reasonable condition, but has a knock in the motor. I understand from other research that this is likely to be a big end, as that is a common problem ? I've been told that having a complete SS motor is quite rare? Is that true?
Could you advise as to whether this is a good buy or not? I don't know much about this particular model.
If I do buy it, I'd strip it down and do a complete resto (once I finish my other 3 resto jobs I have on the go ;-)
Cheers.
