Well.. still 50/50 as I'm not sure if I've gelled with it.

I'll be brutally honest, I think a seal has gone, the gearbox oil has gone white, but with these its usually a water pump seal which is an easy fix, but I REALLY cannot be bothered. I have ridden it a handful of times and crashed it once. Came out perfectly fine!

It has been wrapped in matte vinyl, badly by myself. Can be pulled off nice and easy and a new decal set applied.

Speedo doesn't work, not an issue as the front wheel doesn't stay down. It also has a set of RS125 wheels with correct bearings so can be converted to supermoto, just need spacers and caliper relocating bracket.

Recent full bottom + top end rebuild by Slipstream in Sevenoaks.

Has lights and full MOT until something like July... can't recall exactly. Was going to get it MOT'd again after my holiday in the US, so late June.

Has lots of scratches and scuffs, paint peeling on frame with some surface rust, I would strip and hammerite it in all honesty but then again, I'm not overly bothered.

Offers/trades/anything considered really... but cash wise, I'd want about £1000. It should be perfectly fine, have recently spent £330 in a garage to make sure it works correctly, oil pump works as expected, surprisingly good on 2 stroke oil, however MPG is a little wallet hitting Wink
