It's up for sale now due to it being un-economical for me to re-insure it :cry:

Bad points:

*arrow* Cat D right-off (this was before I owned it though)
*arrow* No steering lock
*arrow* Few scrapes and scuffs and a cracked panel (pictured)
*arrow* No service history
*arrow* Slight tear on the underside of the seat (pictured)

Good points:

*arrow* 100% reliable and never let me down in my 1 year and 4,000km (2480 mile) ownership. Got me to Leeds and back (100 mile round trip) without a hiccup
*arrow* Good on fuel at 80-90mpg
*arrow* Part de-restricted so will do a steady 38mph(ish) on the flat (exhaust still restricted). The washer out of the variator comes with the bike unless the purchaser would like me to re-restrict it back to 30mph as I would be more than happy to do so
*arrow* All electrics work. Fuel gauge works and both electric start and kickstart function correctly
*arrow* Small storage area underseat (will fit a small chain and padlock)
*arrow* Reliable 2 stroke Minarelli engine and transmission
*arrow* Completely standard
*arrow* Push to cancel indicators
*arrow* Twin headlights for good visibility
*arrow* Excellent brakes
*arrow* Bag hook on kneeboard for shopping
*arrow* Cleans up nicely (see pictures)
*arrow* Metallic black paint (see pictures)
*arrow* Tax and tested until August 2009
*arrow* Only 9924km or 6152 miles (pictured)

Would be a great little bike if you're not too fussed about the cosmetics but want something you can trust and rely on. Just needs insuring and then you're away.

Just a little note to say it does come with a reg plate and rear L-plate. These have been taken off while it is stored in my garage.

I am looking for £400 ONO. I may consider a swap though ;) PM me or post in here if you're interested.

I am located East of Manchester (Postcode: OL6)

Now all the details are over, here are the pictures:
