Here's a T reg SR125, easily confused for an R1 or similar superbike, that i'm looking to get rid of as it is.
It currently does not run. It needs work.
It's no longer needed as I have a car for commuting now.

Struggling here for good points-
it gets good fuel economy and is comfortable for commuting.
it has mot and tax until august. don't know it specifically but i bought the bike before reading festival last year.
lots of history and old mot's for it.
Tires have lots of life.


bad points-
as i said, it needs some engine work. when riding to work last year it suddenly lost power and slowed to a halt. i believe it has no compression. if you're after a little project with a haynes manual it may be an easy fix. or just swap the engine out which is what i would have done but didnt have the time then got given a car so didnt have the inclination.
it's a bit tatty but it was a good work horse.

It needs some tlc to get it back going again, part of me will be sorry to see it go but as I said, it's unlikely i'll get it going again so it would just be sat there.

Am open to offers, be looking around the 3-400 mark. I don't think that's overly optimistic.

Bike is based in Eastbourne, can be viewed if you're interested.
