1998 R reg
25,000 miles
1 owner from new then I bought it in July last year to use for commuting.
Great simple and reliable bike. Reasonable condition but not showroom as it is used in all weathers. It's comfortable and great on fuel and so it makes an ideal commuter!
Taxed until November 2014, MOT August 2014.
I bought it from a chap who had it stood in his garage for 6 years and have rebuilt it with new panels as it was knocked off its stand during previous ownership.
Speedo drive doesn't work so I have installed a hall sensor and magnets on the front disc. Works but only reads half speed so it could do with more magnets to double the signal.
Fork seals are weaping a little too.
Other than this it's good. Seat has no rips, tyres are good and the brake pads are less than 500 miles old.
Located in Preston. Looking for around £900
