Greetings All,
First of all this bike is nothing at all to do with me. Whilst the dealer may be geographically near me in Reading, I have no idea where (at the moment).
I just thought that all you fellow Gen1 owners / enthusiasts might enjoy having a look at it. Surely this must be the best low mileage Gen1 available anywhere?
Please let us all know if one of you buys it. Enjoy!

Doesn't take long to check and lube stuff, if nothing needs doing a couple of hours tops for a good mechanic.I would imagine it would take more than a couple of hours to strip the front end out to lube the head bearings properly, and likewise with the rear end to lube the swing arm bearings properly, in addition to all the other checks that are "scheduled" to be done.
So i suspect i will be doing the following
New Front/Rear sprocket/chain
New Rear Bearings
The chain and sprockets i can change myself i have done that before
have never messed with drifting bearings out and seating new ones, is this best left to the local mechanics?
don't want to nacker the wheel
