Looking in the garage the other day I noticed I cannot get to the bench as I have 31/2 Morinis in there. My son whinges that he can't work on his mountain bikes. I do not want to sell my Corsaro. My Kanguro is in bits and the Excalibur is proving a great commuter. So that leaves the 500, which I must admit I am not riding much, although a nice thrash a month ago was great.
It has failed it's MOT on a loose tank, a leaking fuel pipe and disk pads. I have replaced the pads, bled the brakes, fitted a rubber to the tank and some clips to the pipe. It will be MOTd this week. It has had a new (expensive NLM) belt and oil this year and a new (original - last in shop) speedo cable. The tacho cable was replaced last year. It is taxed until next March.
Condition is not concourse, but the machine starts on the button and runs. I have fitted a new headlight and have the original. The indicators are not stanard (I hate the ones on the bike) and it has stainless silencers. The tyres (Dunrop TT100) have plenty of tread.
If anybody is interested and wants a few pictures or more details, please PM me. All sensible offers considered, I do not know how to value the bike, but willing to negotiate. I do not have to sell, but would prefer the bike to be ridden like I did before I bought the other toys, and I need to get the Kanguro back on the road, so need fewer distractions.
This bike was ridden to Dijon and back last year, returning from Dijon in one day.
500 6 Speed :cry: ?
