It's red, but will need stuff doing to it as it's been sat up for 18 months with only the occasional fire-up. This is my list of things to do, with no doubt 'additions' to it!

New battery
New C&S
New tyres
Manual CCTs
Drain/replace all fluids
New pads
New bearings (dependent on condition/wear)
New air filter
New spark plugs
New cables
New clutch line (think the old one is the original rubber line)
Check/replace reg/rec

If you knowledge-able lot know anything else I've missed then shout!

check the starter motor connection, peel back the rubber boot, if corroded, give it a clean and change the nut, then a big dollop of grease under the rubber boot, jobs a good'un

Welcome to the forum. I see you haven't got the original anniversary cans on the bike. Does it still have some of the anniversary bits left on her.

I believe I'm the 6th owner, cybercarl - bought it off my mate - who always had these exhausts on it...

What were the Anniversary cans like, and what other bits (apart from seat cowl) did it come with?
