Description

ok here we have an unfinished project that my son started on a few years back then met a girl and suddenly he wanted to ride something else (sorry couldn't help it)  anyhow we bought this a few years back as a genuine barn find (yes it really was covered in straw in the back of a barn ) When we dug it out the tyres were shot and the brakes locked solid and the fuel smelt like paint stripper . there were no keys or log book . That was about 3 years ago .

since then the oil and filter was replaced . new plugs . tank was flushed out . exhaust changed as old silencer rotten . new tyres (think a new battery but not sure) new chain and sprockets . rebuilt the front and rear calipers then the previous owner found the keys and sent them to us  so we hit the start button and she fired up . We rode it around my friends work car park and that's as far as we got . That was last january 

My son started talking about doing his test so I sent off for a log book around feb last year and that arrived  and then he fell in love and the bike sat in the back of the garage gathering dust . I asked him loads of times if he wanted it and he kept saying yes until last week when he said no just sell it so here we are . Ok story over . so what does it need I here you ask

right I am selling this as a unfinished project  . yes you could quite conceivably put it straight in for an mot I suppose given all the work we have done  but I would say you should be looking at spending a weekend checking it all over first and especially cleaning out the carbs as this is something we haven't done yet and judging by the state of the old fuel it will need doing . Does the bike run - yes but you can tell the carbs needing sorting as its not smooth as silk  but its bloody good considering its been in a barn for years .

ok defects - there are no mirrors . the tank has a small fresh dent on it thanks to my strimmer falling from the wall today . bodywork has various scrapes and scratches but there again it is a 1989 bike  so if your looking for a mint one then why are you looking at such a cheap bike as this isn't  - look at the 2k plus mark

this is being sold as an ongoing unfinished project . it has no tax or mot and should be trailered or taken away in a van . It is what it is no more no less . This would suit either someone looking for a small project or someone who wanted to get into trackdays on the cheap . I just need it out of my way .
