'93 RF600

Good

    Has nearly a full years MOT.

    Meat on both tyres

    Chain & Sprockets in reasonable condition

    Recent service - Oil filter, air filter, plugs, fresh coolant and fresh oil

    Pulled happily up to 130-135mph, so the engines clearly okay.

    Brakes were stripped & cleaned, then filled with fresh fluid.


Bad

    Advisory on MOT for front wheel bearing.

    Speedo drive clicks, but speedo works perfectly well.

    Downpipes are blowing very badly, I made a patch out of tinfoil and gun gum to get it through MOT which seemed to hold for a few months. I have set of downpipes to go with the bike, however they are off a late model so you need to find a late model sump to fit them. I also have all the required gaskets to fit the exhaust to go with it.

    Fork seal one side is a little bit weepy, happened after the Southend Shakedown...I'd assume I hit a pothole a bit hard.

    Has some bizzare fuelling issue which I suspect to be muck in the carbs. They'll be stripped, cleaned and re-balanced prior to sale.


Ugly

    It's an RF & thus not very pretty

    Theres scratches and marks on every panel

    It has purple wheels

    Some stickers are peeling off

    The fairing bolts are a mismatch of OEM and chinese pattern parts


Reason for sale

Fuelling issue caused it to cut out, it's cost me £200 to recover the fecking thing, I'm skint & I'm particularily pissed off with it at the moment.

In its defence it did fire straight back up in the recovery yard, and did the Southend Shakedown with no issues & wasn't a bad bike to ride, but the sight of it makes me want to set it on fire at the moment.
