hi, ive been having a poke about in the paperwork that came with the bike and it seems it's not a red one after all, it is a green one according to the first registration mot, i chipped away some of the paint on the rear mudguard and the plastc is black...sad but never mind.
i got it running at the weekend after half a day with the multimeter and a million and one connection repairs, i fear the big end may be on its way out as it gives a very loud "clank clank clank" alternatively, it could be due to it standing for ages and it needing oil, been to asda and bought a gallon of their finest 20/50 chipfat for the princely sum of £6.00
anyone fancy the rebuild job?
