Welcome to the forum CGT!
That Rally is the color I've always loved and have looked for, but it's never come up. Yours from the picture looks to be in great shape. Please post pics when you roll it out in the sunlight. 20 years and you've never run it?!? Hang out here and you'll have it running in no-time! Again, welcome to MV! |

Man, what a gorgeous bike. My 45 year old Rally 200 has original paint and has seen its fair share of bangs over the years. I've renewed everything on it now except for the paint. I think Voodoo or someone threatened to break my knees if I ever sullied the original paint and patina But every time I see a Rally 200 with shiny paint I get that urge...

Thanks guys
Always nice to get comments off people who know their stuff. I’ve a few teething problems but hopefully I’ll get them ironed out in the coming weeks/months. Cheers once again Cgt75b. |
