$5000 for a bike that requires 'detailing'
and u could bet ur balls that the bikes probably been
around the clock,
always makes me appreciate the $1400 i spent on my bike
with rego, and in more original condition that that bike.

Through the years some modifications may have been made out of preference or improved necessity.I had my original exhaust system hanging up in the carport of my parents house for years................too many as it seemed ....because they were thrown out in a cleanup with out asking me.!!!!!!!   Although i d prefer to see the original tank on a bike like this..........maybe it was sitting in the previous owners carport!!!!!!The larger tank i can understand for the extra range.........changing grips.???.well the originals were never something to write home about.Seat covers just deteriorate through age and sunlight if not looked after.Maybe it s been freshened up with the new mods through bad taste(my opinion only) hence the paint scheme which i m not overly keen about.It would be a great buy as a bike to restore to original order with out too much work......of which you could use as a bargaining tool on the "Make me an Offer "option.Non original mods have devalued this bike as i see it.If i had a spare $2,800 thats the offer i d make.You d have to inspect the bike first hand and take it for a ride to warrant it s worth of a higher price.I m thinking thats going to limit the amount of interested people , seeing as it s in Coffs Harbour.Non the less as it s a complete running bike ready for a New Potential owner to join our ranks.Ohhhh.............and what a nice guy the seller is ..to arrange delivery ....."At the Buyers cost".......mmmmmmmmm...i wonder how essjay s going with his rebuild in WA. $5,000 and delivery at buyer cost!....he may very well jump at this bargain..............then again!!!!!!!!!!

Never worth $5k.

A heck of a lot of non-standard stuff there.

Seat recovered, replacement exhaust, grab rail, tank, sidepanels,grips, mirrors all non standard.Missing the frame collar, frame brace will be gone because of the 4-1.

Can you believe that 39k kms? The grips wouldn't have worn out within 39k kms for a start and the pipes would likely be ok too.
