Personally I would have gone for this one on ebay......

....ya...its about 400 bucks more, but you could be putting that into your bike very shortly when you think about it.
Your tyres are nearly shot (£170) and if that rattle is the camchain (£50) and if you haven't the ability to do it yourself, then 4-5 hours labour in a garage could cost you another £200-£300. And you dunno if the tensioner is ok either. Mine was goosed and costed me another £120 onto that.
If your bike had nothing to be done to it, then I would have classed it as a real bargain at £970. But it mightn't be so until you see were you stand with that camchain and tensioner. I had to do my camchain and tensioner plus another few things, which made my (what I thought was a) bargain purchase, not such a bargain afterwards and a bit of a disappointment money wise.
Best of luck with it anyway. Not trying to rain on your parade, but just making people aware that they need to think carefully when they see a "bargain".
