Engine no. HM-19300363

Bultaco's first motocross machines were the Sherpa S, and following considerable input from Don and Derek Rickman, the Sherpa was succeeded by the Pursang, introduced in 1965. The first machines were produced by the Rickman's with the Rickman's own frame, but eventually manufacture was moved back to the Bultaco factory in Spain. The first Pursang had a 250 motor, incorporating a five-speed gearbox, and the model was regularly updated over the subsequent years. This machine appears to be a Mk. 8 updated with a Mk. 10 370cc engine.

Possibly unrestored, it has swinging arm rear suspension, alloy rims, lightweight plastic petrol tank, mudguards, and 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.
