After switching over to a bike with a newer engine, I don't have time or motivation to keep two.

 

My 900, with untidy front bodywork (plastic welded etc, vinyl wrapped to hide sins, heavily scratched front mudguard), no infill panels so bottom edges of the side panels flap a little bit

 

113,000 miles. Engine smokes from right cylinder once warmed. And if idling, and hot, in traffic, it can smoke a bit more.

I was going to buy a 14,000 mile engine off ebay for £550 but chose a different route.

It is what it is, a well used bike with lots of serviceable life in most of it's mechanical parts. I expect the engine issue will only worsen with time. No symptoms of any other problem, gears and clutch good. 3 of the 6 clutch springs are upgraded to reduce slipping, performance clutch plates less than 10k miles old

 

Good calipers (rear caliper needs new bleed nipple)

Swingarm, swingarm bearings, shock link all greased a couple thou miles ago

Fork seals and bushes changed within last 10k miles

Steering bearing good, wheel bearings good.

Wheels a bit corroded, need a refurb or live with them, Cush rubbers are original, so have a little bit of play now

Nearly new tyres PR5 rear, PR4 front.

Braided front hoses

Gold, not black, frame

Recent chain, not high end <blush>, recent front sprocket

 

Tank is Good, colour Galaxy Blue.

Rear seat fairing is black, with a bit of pale discolouration on right side

 

It actually could well pass the MOT, which is due next weekend

 

I can possibly deliver in the next week, by arrangement, and your help with travel cost home (I live near Edinburgh)

Tax ran out yesterday so the new owner would obviously need to tax it before I can ride it

 

Not sure I can find the rear indicators, I'm removing luggage rack with inbuilt indicators. I can hand signal :)

 

 

Advertised elsewhere.
