painted or completely polished out of the finish of the bike. finish and appearance of the entire bike. the final paint work is always much nicer than what came from the factory. I try to create "older looking" new paint. Paint work was by Chris Wood - Airtrix in California.
The bike was rebuilt from the crankshaft up with the assistance of my two main suppliers. It received a comprehensive mechanical and cosmetic restoration. original OEM and high quality reproduction parts as available. The chassis and engine were fully disassembled and the bike was rebuilt using the best of NOS. but are new Pirelli M16 with the period correct tread. the tires are not the original old Pirellis. the kill button and the throttle cable guide could be easily removed for greater authenticity to showroom stock. The greatest difference from the stock bike would be a period correct kill button on the handlebar (there was none from the factory) and the rubber cable guard on the Amal throttle assembly (more commonly used starting in 1974). The bike is highly original and shows that way. The restoration was just completed and would score well at any Concours event that you might attend.

I have another one available and would be happy to finish it for you. but I will include a photo of it here for those not familiar with it. The consecutive year Pursangs were built at the same time. FYI - I also just completed a 1974 Pursang restoration.
This brand new look resulted in the 1973 Pursang being the last Pursang produced by the factory in the classic Bultaco red/silver colors. The '74 model also featured a new blue/white colored gas tank - styled after the American's GP winning blue helmet from 1973. Telesco shocks and the new style Akront rims. This bike had many of the features of the GP winning factory race bike including the chrome moly frame. Bultaco capitalized on the win by introducing a Jim Pomeroy replica bike in 1974. and his 3rd place in moto 2 secured him the overall victory. was well suited for passing on the outside cushion. and the right-side shifting Pursang with Pomeroy on it. The Spanish GP track featured many sweeping left hand bends. it was the talent of dirt-track trained Pomeroy that allowed for the stunning victory. Probably more than the changes to the bike. and the front hub was laced to a new "shoulderless" Akront rim. a new light-weight rear hub was laced to a standard shouldered Akront rim. special light-weight Telesco shocks were used in place of the stock Betor shocks. but utilizing light-weight chrome moly tubing. It was rumored that the frame on his race bike was a U. He rode a factory bike which looked very much like this model with the classic red/silver paint. This was at the "home" race for Bultaco - the Spanish GP. the Bultaco factory got their very first International GP motocross victory with the young American rider Jim Pomeroy. The most significant years for the 250cc Pursang model in terms of racing success and sales were in 19.
The purpose-built motocross Pursang was offered in various displacements initially from 125cc through 350cc. and the Pursang was the best selling model in the United States. By the late sixties and early seventies Bultaco became best known for their off-road bikes. the Bultaco factory expanded production into the off-road motorcycle categories with equal success. 1973 Bultaco 250cc PursangMk6 model 103History: After a successful start in road racing in 1959.
