rest of it will clean up quite well


Yeh but the bad bits are the major bits....the engine ill bet is focced......i dunno something seems a bit iffy here..does it have a sprocket nut attached?.......how does it ride?......are the down pipes solid and not blowing?...& will they come off without snapping the studs if the engine is even useable?...apart from being in a hedge do you know any of the bikes history and mileage....clearly the forks have seen better days and it has been ridden under the sea.....is the rear shock original?.


Maybe a couple of decent daylight pics will shed more light on the condition.


Im not trying to piss on your parade...i really hope you can do something with it but i just dont agree with spending a few quid & jobs a good'n..........rightly or wrongly i just stripped an old 600 which was crash damaged & it looked gleaming in comparison.


All that aside though you've come to the right place......if you're crazy enough to fix it then theres plenty loons on here to help you. 8)
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
