Very exciting! Love the feeling of a new project arriving

[@theoldgraywindpassertest]

It's really odd but I love something to tinker with 😂

[@deansigman6099]

These are fun bikes. I've got an 04 and it's been my favorite bike so far.

[@theoldgraywindpassertest]

Thanks Dean. I'm really looking forward to getting it on the road 😀

[@Darrendoccarter]

Lookes like hours of fun.

[@theoldgraywindpassertest]

And I fancied a little project 😂 May have bitten off more then I can eat!

[@LeeW553]

You've got your work cut out for you there, will you be taking Boris the spider along as a pillion?

[@theoldgraywindpassertest]

I think Boris would affect the handling.

[@LeeW553]

That front tyre has less on it than your head 😂

[@theoldgraywindpassertest]

I think my head would have a better grip... probably 😅

[@stevebonner9108]

You paid £400, mine is in slightly better condition. Definitely not too much and I paid £2000. Now I definitely feel ripped off.

[@theoldgraywindpassertest]

If it makes you feel better, I've spent £600 so far and still have tyres etc etc to go.

[@stevebonner9108]

@theoldgraywindpassertest upto know a new starter motor, all new bearings in swingarm and nushings for where the drive attaches to swingarm. And know it either needs a new tps unit or the ignition unit from front off the engine.
