Title: That's rooted, what's next..
Post by: ogri48 on 19 September 2014, 04:22:34 pm
It's always worth asking innit..
I was looking fir an mt-01, but needed to trade my fz1-s against it.
Basically, every dealer offered 4k tops against my yam, so the difference to change was 1500 to 1700 as most low mileage early mts are around 5500 at stealers.
There was a decent 06 plate in the bay for 4750, I messages him about swapping the fz1 with no money involved either way, he went for it.
Yesterday we trekked over to a half way point between norwich and potterhansworth, a mcdonalds just outside of spalding, and the deal was done. I also bought two cored cans off him for200 sovs. My poor missus had a back pack on the way there with a standard fz1 end can and loadsa bits in it, and on the way back the same rucksack with two cans innit and a load of spares. I do love her...
And I love my silver avro Lancaster bomber...

That looks a nice bike, mine is an 05 with 12k on the clock, only thing I've had to do was new fork oil seals and a new rear tyre although it came with new tyres.
According to what it says on "how many left" theres 444 in Britain so quite a rare bike.

just checked 2nd quarter and there's 488?

Nice
Every component looks sculpted and solid and beautifully designed and put together by an artist------------------ and then do I see a 99p tiny pippy hooter right behind the front wheel !!---tell me its not.

Of course it is, only says it clear as day in the original post. I just go around with my eyes shut.

Lovely bike anyway, kinda like a Japanese Buell :)

I think I would get on well with an MT-01 but the styling of the exhaust cans puts me off. I have seen mods to have a single exit on the side like we have on the Fazer's and I do prefer that look :)

Let us know how you get on with it Ogri :)

Will do brother.
At the mo I'm loving it more than any I've owned in years, but that's prolly a lot to do with being 55 and a big fan of the dam busters.. ;)
