I bought this bike in 2017, I’ve never had any problems with it apart from having to put a new carburettor manifold rubber on it and a new 12v regulator box.
It has just had a full service, new clutch cable and new throttle cables. Starts well and runs like a dream. Its not a mint restored bike, but in great original condition for its age, very tidy. I have alot of receipts for parts and work its had done since 2003, including full top end re-build, shockers, carb, exhaust, weel rebuilds, chain, sprockets etc. It has a full stainless steel exhaust, Rexspeed 12v conversion and Rexspeed 12v electronic ignition.
The bike is currently in my local motorcycle shops showroom Colbys motorcycles Boston.
