Find of the year , 1971 speedway silver shadow (125cc sachs engine) complete with all the hard to find parts.

Came from the original owners uncle , i was told he drug it out of the field in utah at his uncle's property after the other silver shadow they had burned up in a house fire years ago.

That is amazing find, Congrats! There is not many of these left! Let me know if you have questions about restoring this gem!
by chance do you have the rod that connects the foot brake lever to the lever on the brake lid(drum) thats the only piece this silver shadow is mssing

its also missing the clamp (bracket) that goes around the exhaust


i also have an early 71 silver shadow roller i need an exhaust for.

speedways bike and basic design seems to be built way stronger than the rupps in my opinion (the frame and front end )
Probably so…excuse me but I have to ask, aren’t you speedway Tommie? If so I didn’t know they let you back…if you are not my sincere apologies!
