Went away for christmas to Lanzarote. Blasted round the island on a Ducati Monster, then did a sunset cruise on a Harley one day (did not catch the ghey, but it was cheap and thought I'd try).
Anyway, came back, sold the fireblade next day, then this I'd tried to buy before christmas came up again. Jumped at it. It's for my daughter primarily and will probably be a keeper. It's pristine. Has original bill of sale, including the 'extras' 99p mudflap! 2000 miles from new, some documentation with it. All four original keys (2 for ignition and 2 steering lock I think).
Only thing wrong is the fuel tank has been replaced with one which is an incorrect colour. Runs and idles spot on, quick ride and all was well. Original embossed main dealer numberplate.
Guy I bought it from is a spanner monkey for some bike racer, he got it, stripped and cleaned then used as a pit bike! He's now bought a road legal CRF-50 which has been overbored.

Tree-Fiddy english ponds. So less than most of the crappy wrecked peds or chinese rot boxes for a classic.
Anyway, couple of pics.

It's a 12V cigarette lighter port, as it was used as a pit bike it was also used for charging the data collection equipment Laughing

No it's not premix.

Saw that yesterday, but £30+p&p for a rusty old tank I passed on that. I'd be better off spraying and attempting to find the decals (which is probably possible).

One of these was my first bike at 16. A hand me down from my sister, it caused her no end of trouble, seizing twice and electrical gremlins abound. Under my use it never missed a beat. Bought it for 75, sold it for 150. Bargain motoring. Laughing
