Will be putting my current workhorse up for sale in 6 weeks or so so just wondered if anyone on here will be interested

Its not perfect

But it is very good

The main issue is since overhauling the clutch a few months ago it is now quite grabby at times and can drag. The maaster and slave cyl are fine so I think the clutch basket is grooved and will need replacing.

The plastics are in tact and mostly very good but there are a few areas with cracks and scratches

I have put a lot of money and effort into the bike to keep it sound including

new fork seals and oil
new cluth friction plates, stainless plates, springs and a system bleed
complete strip and clean post winter (there is a thread somewhere)
new chain and sprockets
new pads all round
front and rear brake overhaul

It has an old WP emulsion rear shock and showa fork internals

I have also created a home made pannier set with aux light and indicators

plus lots more to tell nearer the time

pics to follow

anyone interested?
