Title: Rudge Ulster
Post by: harry1 on June 03, 2006, 08:14:22 AM

Can anyone tell me why I should not buy a Rudge Ulster 499. What should I pay for one that LOOKS in superb condition? How much should I pay? Your views would be most apprieciated. Thanks.

Its in the real world. How worried should I be by a Bronze head?

Rudge Bronze heads are fine, especially the later heads they used on the Ulsters and Specials with the enclosed valve gear.
