Nothing exciting, but I just picked this up cheap as chips Smile Thumbs Up

Fresh battery, & fresh fuel and away she went Smile .
At this moment (fingers crossed) everything works!
lights, horn, indicators, both brake lights, starter motor.
Both brakes work?
Clutch seems ok
It seems to go through the gears ok Thumbs Up

After riding my ZX6r and my Hyosung Gt 250 that are both twin discs up front and a lot more modern, the braking does seem a little spooky Smile .
It`s tatty but all there and even got it`s original pipes and they appear to be in usable order Smile.

My garage is as full as a full thing on national full day now Smile

EDIT : for those that dont recognise it , It`s a 250 Pooper-Dream

Not going to say how much it cost on here!, my missus reads this/my threads Shocked Shocked Shocked Smile

Let me just say that it was cheap Thumbs Up


And after getting it home and it`s all up and running, it seems really cheap Smile
All I need now is some nice weather so I can get it out of the garage to work on it.
My garage is so full of shite, that there is no room to work on bikes inside.

Sort out the steering lugs (need a little spot weld), a clean up, oil change, new plugs & air filter, sort out the chain, tiny weld on the exhaust and then I will take it for a MOT.
It came with a few spares so if it fails, it might not cost to much to put right
