Hi there I just got my first mini it is a 66 mini 850 it has a 1275 cooper S disk brakes a weber, extractors, twin tanks, 6 contessa mags, HI-LO sup, 4 syne gear box a full roll cage, there is no rust I got it for $3800 is this a good price or did I pay to much I want to get is painted what is a good colour to paint it ??? are they easy to work on.

As far as i can see (without pics; they tell 1000 words) it sounds pretty nice. The price is fair as far as i'm concerned... especially for whats done to it... 1275, hi-los, roll cage, tanks.

Nice one.
Get some pics!

Will.

as above hard to say without pics....whats the body like? straight...bent....rusty....chopped....cut into?
is it complete.....in peices?
sounds like its got some good gear though...

Good stuff, someone from Geelong!

Price seems about right, you definatly didn't get ripped. When you add up the prices for 1275's, cooper s discs, right hand tank, it's not a bad buy at all!

They aren't overly hard to work on, you just have to learn how to morph you body into very wierd positions.

Get some pix up, let us see what you have got.
