Except manual CCT's, by any chance?
:lol:

Looks pretty standard from the pics, anything interesting been done?

You might be being a bit hopeful with the £500, tbh.
In working order with that mileage you'll only get a grand.
So factor in £300 for a known good engine, pius the faffing about and time........
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I would love to get this to allow me to make a start on "Project Benny" the rebuild of Benny's bike, V33VTR

Would you let it go for £375 as I have to factor in the cost of getting it up here to Leeds :thumbup:

What you may not have considered is that I'll rebuild it for £150.....
Assuming it's the usual front cct failure, two or four bent valves.

Takes a day, and I can collect in the bus for a bit of diesel money.... you'll be able to ride it home.
