The buy-it-now price is below the market for real V7 Sports.  What's your concern about this one?

vin# listed is not a real vin # DGM9101M

no pic of engine #
no pic of vin plate.

lots of non V7 parts

If the vin plate is missing , how will the new owner title it ? that DGM number is not a vin #

they do not have a title but sold on bill of sale.

 :popcorn:


anyway listing ended , someone got a " great " LOL deal ...............

Engine case was either not the original or was modified for an oil filter sump, otherwise there wouldn't be a sump spacer.

Good luck to whoever bought it. Should be a fun rider, but would take a lot of $$ to make original again.

Out of curiosity, were those engine mods (high compression pistons, dual spark, etc) considered acceptable modifications "back in the day?"  I wasn't sure.

Thanks

I doubt the buyer was from the UK. The bike’s not right hand drive.

 That's okay, it's not left hand drive either.

I wonder what frame they are using. Whomever changed it didn't mount the tank properly. The tabs at the front are going to crack if it's kept that way.
Oil drain plug is in the front?
