The early Sherpa S models were available in a variety of engine sizes; 100, 125, 175 and 200cc. Other than a prototype, there appears not to have been a 250cc version until the advent of the Pursang in 1965. The 125cc Sherpa S saw moderate success in off-road competition and continued in production until 1972.
The vendor advises us that this is a 125cc Sherpa S, dating from approximately 1968, although we have not found frame and engine numbers to confirm this. It has swinging arm rear suspension, alloy rims, lightweight fibreglass petrol tank, alloy mudguards, alloy side panels, with drum brakes front and rear. An older restoration, it will require re-commissioning prior to further use. Whilst the engine turns over, its mechanical condition is unknown. There are no documents present, and it is sold strictly as viewed.
