  • These are pretty cool bikes. Always wanted one and had found over the years they're very hard to come by. It's a pretty clean one runs pretty good I've been sitting in storage for a while so the car bowl started leaking and that will need to be addressed. Other than that pretty good shape.

    Loved to go down to Ascot in So. Cal. In the late 60s early 70s and watch the Montessas race. Such beautiful bikes!

    Hi I owned one of those for years, red frame VF ,it was converted to a six speed when it was new. That really made the bike, power was like a light switch ,you needed to hang on .it was a hell of a ride . regards from. Australia

    I've had a few 414's over the years, both ve and vf. Great bikes that gave me no grief at all.
    And that's how you start them (or any big bore for that matter). Top dead centre and then a decent kick, instead of flayling away at the kicker...👍

    I've had one of these. The memory of first time riding this beast still gives me goosebumps. Of all the bikes that I've owned selling this one is my greatest mistake. I rode it for years, but I heard that the guys I sold it to, destroyed the bike within a few days.

    I owned this same model. Was definitely a beast. A little much for the tight technical trails of hare scrambles in district 5 north east. Was never a big fan of the four-speed, but I guess it would be OK on a motocross track. Rode it until I bought a new 81 husky 250 XC. Cannot say the Husky was so much better, But can sure testify it was better suited for what I was using it for

    Owned and raced Pro on one in Houston TX. I hated the mix of colors so mine was painted yellow on the airbox and fork lowers. The 414 wouldn't rev and you couldn't keep shocks on it with the increased leverage. This was my last Tessie, they just couldn't keep up in the tech race.

    I've owned three VE 414's and a two VF 414's over the years in Australia. Raced the VF for a few years and it was a good, easy to ride bike, that won me a lot of races. Sadly I moved all of them on to a collector but they will be on display in a Museam, for all to see, which is better than them sitting under sheets in my shed.
    That is one of the best examples I've seen of a VE in a very long time and sounds brilliant. So many of them get messed with and end up looking nothing like original and I reckon the VE is the toughest looking MX'er ever. Don't ever part with it, you'll be kicking yourself!
    I do have a u Tube video of mine doing some laps of Broadford Motocross track in Australia. And yes, the only way to start them is to get to TDC and give it a good boot!
