Comments from the seller

Selling my beloved 1981 500SL Pantah this bike is in very original condition. Starts, runs & rides very well. Only selling due to not getting used enough. Bike is kept garage and covered when not in use. Spent $6,500 on internals at Vee Two in 2022 have ridden very little since then. No time wasters, No pay ID
