The indicators do look a bit pants but I put clear lenses on mine and they look much better for a small cost compared to getting after market indicators. Chris
Good choice . Looks a good buy for the money.Don't worry about a few cracks in the inlet rubbers. They all go like that and have to be really bad before they start to leak.I see it has the standard mirrors on which some find o.k. but others find they are looking at their shoulders more than the view behind. The solution in that case is to fit mirrors intended for the 2002-2003 model which have a longer arm.This is the place to come if you have any questions or concerns about the bike.Safe riding.

I will take a look I'm a bit tight for money at the min as I'm in the middle of buying our first house.
A few people have comment on the handle bars but I don't like the original ones. I may change the pad as it does look a bit ugly. Nice bike I've always liked blue.Call me stupid but have you and chris got the newer fazer as the front panel is diff to mine?I've only just got in to big bikes, as I know more about the 125 bikes and scooters. Regarding my exhaust it looks to be in good condition may need a coat off paint soon.
Hey! I bought my first house at 23, 2 years ago and i'm still young! haha
