When I got my SV650, my CBR125 went straight into storage, and I mean literally.
Just rolled the bike into the garage and there it sat for now just over a year.
The only thing I did was to lift it on my home made paddock stand which lifts the rear wheel clear.
Now a friend of a friend has approached me looking to possibly purchase it...
To make it as sellable and reliable as I can, other then an oil & filter change, lube the chain, check for cracks on tyres and change the battery ( I know its knackered as it was when it went into the garage!) what else should I look at
a) To make sure its safe, and b) to make it sellable.
It will need an MOT before its back on the road so anything in particular I should look out for to make sure it passes (other then the tyres as above and making sure the lights work)
