Dad just put down a deposit on a fzx750 not sure on the year etc think it's on 29k miles. No service history and only one 1 mot certifcate from 5 years ago. Has been in storage since 1998 apparently. We saw it running and seemed to be running well. Looks like it only needs left rear indicator bulb, exhaust can as old one/s were sawn off and few other bits. £570.

Hi

Very solid engines, just don't over tighten the chain. At 29k it is only just over due its first valve adjustment.

Also the nearest I get to cruiser style bikes without losing all interest!

All the best

Gorgeous machine Thumbs Up
Looks like it'd survive a nuclear holocaust and all.

edit: Got any insurance quotes on it?

Just gave him a ring he's not getting it anymore despite leaving a deposit Rolling Eyes found another one £1250 with full mot, tax, full service and mot history. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261259248402? Would of probably went for the original one for £570 myself. Insurance shouldn't be a problem he's nearly 50, lives in a good area etc think he pays £30 for his car insurance on a bmw 2.0 Thumbs Up

Good machine, but of its time. Motor very strong and will rev as well. I don't see any silencers....... Have fun locating some in decent condition.
