Hi Ken.......for the condition and lack of some main original parts it s at the top end of what this bike would maybe sell for.

The for:  original airbox/ 10 months rego/ it s motorcycle with 2 wheels and he claims it runs well...........mmmmmm.......yep thats about it.

The against: non original exhaust /dubious paint job /no standard fairing /Re covered seat looks a little shabby /pics on most websites don t show the bike as they look in real life
.
Bottom line: You need to personally take a look at the bike........or make an offer somewhere around $1400..keep in mind the guy has just spent $500 to 600 on rego.and then there s that roadworthy.......Tyres? and any other worn or soon  to be replaced parts?

Advantages:Your bloody good at restoring a bike.
Considerations:How much do you have in your bank account? Are you on good terms with Wifey!!!
 ;) ;D :D

gday excess, at 1st impressions I'm thinking 1900 sounds good, but when you explained things to me it all changed abit, i like bikes to be original looking at least and it would be exxy to get it how i want it, when i finish the elcy i will look seriously for one of these,thanks for the guidance, see ya
