Ooh, yes please. Roughly £15500 Actually for what is in effect a brand new bike that's pretty good when one looks at the hugely inflated prices of classics these days.

Love the bit about 'selling with no reserve' and then putting the starting price at AU$29,950 !!

How is that not a reserve ??

The indicator switches are unusual, with a both left and right buttons on the RH side and no cancel button. How did you cancel? A second prod on the button?

Lovely bike mind :D

ISTR it's a rocker switch, like the hi/lo headlight switch Greg

Hmm... For a 'barn find' that looks seriously shiny... Luckily it's local pickup only so iffy from sunny Warks...

Assuming it's gen and really only has 800km or so on the clock you'd still have to do a complete strip & reassemble before riding it? Or simply soddit and see how it goes? j
