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?

Steering damper, carbon yoke cover and tank cap cover and that's as much as I can remember.
