Fast Red'ns demand a higher price. Lol I would think £1200 is enough.

Hi.. I recently aquired a yellow storm in an extreemely clean condition and it is
currently in my garage awaiting me to show it whose boss,
but ... when I do it will be the other way round if I over cook it..it will
be the boss...its the quickest most pleasurable motorcycle I have ever owned.

I went for the yellow colour .. coz as a yellow blurr...Road users should see me on it....
than a... blue, red or black blurr at speed yellow is a safe visible colour I feel but thats
my own decision.Good luck .. Hey doesnt really matter about the colour
mechanical condition and value are paramount considerations.

I hope it stops raining up here in Murkeyside soon.

Seat hump in a different colour and a tank cover would ring bells with me. Especially at that money.

Of course, if it was red.... :thumbup:

Hard to say without seeing, as there's differences in what people regard as good condition, but going on what they are fetching you probably wont pay much more than £1000-1200,but I'm probably prepared to pay more than most, if I feel its a good'un.
Oh and I would want the OE shock as well ( Sorry Mart ) but IMO hagon aren't what I would call an improvement. I'd rather have the original Showa unit. But each to their own, others would disagree.
The Hagon shock is 100% better than the stock one.

Every other bike on this forum has mis matched bodywork, they cant all be hiding something. And mines got a tank cover, and its hiding a mint unmarked tank.

Make sure the tank cover is included mate, they come in handy. Buch better to use this with a bagster tank bag than a magnetic one.

yeah Ive made the mistake before of scratching a tank, then used a rubber protector, which after 6 months of rubbing my crotch wore out a set of touring trousers lol

a bagster sounds ideal for weekends away etc :)

Weekends away ???????????? What, you mean you're actually going to use it for what it was designed ?????

No my good man, you've come to the wrong place then. This site is for people who never ride, just take them apart, add tracky trinkets, turn them into council houses, that sort of thing !!
