£800, 33k miles on it, Datatool alarm, datatagged.

Only bad things were the front calipers needed new seals, seat has a small tear and the clutch slips when you really take it into the power.

Micron can sounds mean.

Hi

Seats often seem to split there. Should be cheap enough to get recovered. Clutch should be easy enough to sort.

So when are you going to be riding it?

All the best

Keith

I'm riding it now, the awesome thing is that it was only £65 more to insure than the MZ!!

I'm not too bothered about the seat, but I must get around to buying some new friction plates for the clutch.

I wasn't in braintree, but it wouldn't surprise me if my dad stole the bike.

I'm in Bristol.

It's got a micron can on it, you'll hear it coming for miles.

Only just noticed aswell, but I didn't actually mention where the seat was torn, so Keith actually spotted where it was torn!!

Observational trophy goes to Kickstart!

It's colour coded apart from the parts where any part of your body touches it. Then it turns a lovely metallic silver colour.

Well if you get a new seat I will buy the old one off you. Need another to cut down / build up so the covering is irrelevant. Think the 600 and 1200 seats are the same.

All the best

You're top of the list Keith. Why having it cut down? You're not a short guy...

I am not that tall, although fine on the Bandit. Already have a cut down seat with a gel insert for the Bandit so that Charlotte can comfortably ride it.

However I am after a a seat to cut down at the front and build up a bit at the back to stop me sliding backwards. There is a dip in the runway at Woodbridge, and hitting that at around 140 landed up with me sliding back down the seat a bit. Not good for the cleaning bill.

All the best

Keith

That's because it's cleverly disguised as a Blue Vauxhall Corsa at the moment...

But you will hear it, fear not.
