Yamaha YZF1000 Thunderace 21800 miles

Hello. p for sale is my 1998 Yamaha YZF1000 Thunderace. The bike has 21800 miles on the clock and MOT till 22nd June 2015. The bike is currently SORN but at the buyers expense i can arrange for tax to be added. Good bits:This bike has never let me down in the 4 years i have owned her an is still running solid. She has always been left to get up to temperature before riding out and has always been garaged on a paddock stand when stored. She has brand new Bridgestone Battlax tyres which were fitted just after the MOT in June (?280) and they haven't even covered 100 miles on them. Still have the pips on and will require a bit of easy riding to scrub them in before blasting hard on the corners. New front brakes were fitted at the same time. She has a aftermarket road legal exhaust which has a great tone and ensures drivers hear you coming. I also have the original Yamaha exhaust which will be included in the auction. The previous owner had the seats recovered with blue piping which looks great and also has a rear grab rail. Oxford Heated grips installed for keeping the hands toastie for those like me that like to ponder out in the colder months. Badish bits:A number of minor marks due to the age of the bike. There is small graze one a section of the left fairing where it accidentally touched the garage wall when i was putting it away. (Pictured)Small dent on the tank which was there when i bought it. This has not chipped the paint. There are a few fairing bolts missing but the fairings are not loose and fine to ride. Overall this is a brilliant and reliable bike that is great for just cruising around but has never failed to keep up with the super bikes when giving it a bit more. Only selling due to knee problems and in no rush so no silly offers. The bike is registered in my name. I can arrange for viewing evenings / weekend so please contact me if interested. . No test pilots. You are bidding to buy and not see the bike. Collection Only. As noted Tax can be arranged at your expense on top of the sale price. I will not accept bids from outside UK. The winning bid must contact me after the auction end and arrange ?100 deposit. Any non payers will be reported to ebay. Any questions feel free to contact me. Thank you
