My MT arrived this morning, thanks to the generous seller who arrived before 9am and delivered from Wales.
My front room is now full of cases of MT bits and the bike, damn i need a bigger house.
First job was to order the battery ( bargain at £15 delivered).
Must get my camera sorted and will post pics.
After the usual inspection she needs a front tyre (also thrown in by the seller) and the exhaust needs to be pulled off and refitted, bemused as how the guy got it on in one piece, he changed all the seals but it blows at the head.
No obvious faults but not had it running yet, the guy seemed very genuine and says it hasnt been run for about 6 weeks, the cam-belt looks pretty new but he didnt know when it had been changed last, so maybe wise to fit a new one anyway.
Even has an almost full tank of gas. will be on the lookout for a toolbox though and pannier racks.
Even has its de-mob papers, this one was 9 Para and came out in 96.
Heated hand grips...thats a novelty for me lol.
As far as i can tell she is a good straight bike and i cant wait for the battery to arrive.........................................
