Update ... Keeping bike, shoulder's sort of on then mend ... Bike assembly is slow but going well, back on the rd very soon all being well.

Just putting feelers out, as considering selling my immac condition Gen1, 2003 / 26k, Silver Tech Metallic.

Chassis & body work:

  • Bikes been fully stripped for a full refurb.
  • Nose cones been fully stripped, steel frames been stripped to bare metal / etched & POR15 painted (Gloss Black).
  • Fully assembled (10min job to refit to frame).
  • Rear wheel's been repainted in 2pack Black gloss / new Michelin PR4 fitted.
  • Airbox & engine are in frame, swingarm & rear wheel  / carbon hugger / caliper all fitted.
  • Engine has been bare metal prepped / etched & POR15 painted (Satin Silver)
  • New (no miles / R6 Shock upgrade fitted (Rare Yellow spring model) extra new K-tech heavier Red spring included / 110NM.
  • Every other component has been removed, bare metal etch prepped & POR15 painted.
  • All ready to refit.
  • Foot rest mounts have been fully stripped & polished, all steel parts POR15 paint (Gloss Black).
  • All ready to fit.
  • Top yoke to repaint.
  • Bottom yoke to clean up & polish or repaint.
  • Frame/s have been repainted in original factory (Dark Metallic).
  • New Head bearing kit (taper roller kit / to fit) original bearing races still in frame, so option for either.
  • Forks stripped / cleaned, all adjusters have been stripped / lubed & mirror polished &  ready for assembly (K-Tech service kit 9.5 linear springs / dust & oil seals & oil).
  • New Carbon hugger (fitted).
  • New chain & silent front sprocket (to fit) chain & rear sprocket fitted are still good.
Engine:

  • Engine casings are all removed, just needs Stator cover / Clutch cover / Ignition cover / rocker cover painting.
  • Covers are pretty much stripped to bare, so option to polish alloy up or etch & repaint.
  • Also have an as new Magnesium R1 rocker cover that I planned to fit.
  • Headers have bare metal prepped, POR15 Satin Black to collector box & mounting flanges.
  • Exup has been fully stripped & refitted, cover plate POR15 Satin Black painted.
  • Carbs fully stripped Ultrasonic cleaned & rebuilt with full Monty MB Jet kit fitted & set as per Ivans recommendations, will just need a tweak & balance.
  • Carb mounting rubbers have been ported out & matched to head ports.
  • New Pipercross foam airfilter (to fit).
  • Airbox lid mod (to do).
  • Valve clearances checked & in spec prior to strip.
  • All gaskets / seals included for casings.
  • All stainless bolts included.
Other:

  • A lot of hrs have gone into this refurb so far, not a lot of hrs required to re-assemble bike & finish off casings etc.
  • Bike ran mint before refurb.
  • New manual CCT (to fit).
  • New Renthal bars (to fit).
  • New Braided hoses (to fit).
  • All bodywork in excellent condition.
  • Seat's immac conditon.
  • Bike will look as new when assembled.
All keys & Docs in my name / owned for 5yrs, no expense has been spared on this refurb (I have in excess of 3.5 Grand in this bike.) Reluctantly considering selling as no time to complete due to health issues. It's a shame for such a mint bike to not be assembled & ridden as intended. Serious enquiries only, Pics on request, Any questions pls PM me, am near Barnsley S/Yorks - Looking for £3,000

Thanks for looking.

Why don't you finish it and sell it as a complete bike?

Yep you can knock off at least a grand, for incomplete.  Many owners make the mistake of bolting all many of upgrade or bling to a bike and than think that increases it's value, it doesn't.  i.e. bolting on 3k of rear shock won't increase the value, the bike has to have a shock.
