1974 OSSA PHANTOM.
FRAME UP RESTORATION
I have built several phantoms but this is the nicest.
The Engine is zero time since overhaul by a longtime Ossa
Mechanic. 1st over with new piston &
rings. It has had the heavy rod
conversion done. All new bearings and
seals. New primary chain. Transmission
has been gone through and gears replaced as needed. It has been shimmed correctly and has the new
style shift selector. New output shaft sprocket and chain of course. 36mm Bing Carburetor, new float and screen & gasket.
The Exhaust is original along with the repacked
silencer. It does have a round tube
welded along the bottom of the exhaust to help protect it. This seems to be a period modification.
The fenders, airbox and tank are all original to the
bike. Tank has been cleaned and sealed
with Caswells tank sealer. The paint
on the fiberglass is a urethane basecoat
& clear. New stripe kit from Keith Lynas. New Tank
badges, repro of the originals and new cap and seal and tank petcocks from Ossaworld.
The Frame Is powdercoated with a high gloss black. Front
and rear hubs and brake backing plates powdercoated high gloss to match.
Engine side cases powdercoated Matte black to match cylinder
, head and engine cases.
Original Aluminum Swingarm.
No cracks or breaks or repairs. New swingarm bushings.
New chrome on the kickstart, pegs and rear brake rod. Also, the front hub spoke supports are
chrome as well as the front and rear axles & axle nuts & washers. Clutch adjustment cover and clutch actuation
lever & front and rear wheel spacers & chain tighteners & chain
guides. All remaining aluminum pieces
are polished.
All new cables,
levers and perches. New
Handlebars & grips. Original Ossa

Repro fiberglass front number plate.
Original Akront rims

I used new hardware wherever I could . I did retain the original hardened bolts for
the motor mounts etc.

Good luck!!
Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I will assist in anyway that I can. I have used haulbikes.com before and they are fair.
