This is a 2015 Francis Barnett Sinnis Retro Star 250cc. It was rebuilt as new by the chap who owns the Francis Barnett name. He had a number of 125s built plus a 250 and a 400. This is the one and only 250cc bike he built. I bought it from him a couple of years ago.
The base bike is a 250cc Sinnis Retro Star with a cosmetic rebuild and repaint to reflect how a modern made Francis Barnett would look.

It has all the modern conveniences like 12v electrics, indicators and an electric start! It produces about 20hp and will cruise all day at 60mph and happy to have the occasional blast up to 70mph on a motorway.
I have fitted the rear panniers and new rear shocks. The exhaust and horn are a little rusty along with a few of the original nuts and bolts. It has about 5,500km on the clock and has a full MOT. Spares are easy to get direct mail order from the importer based in Brighton.
It is a great modern classic.
