No knocks, taps or ticks that I have noticed.

Duno about service history. I don't have the book, since I've had it, I've changed the oil twice, oil filter once. New pads all round, new brake fluid, new radiator(stone chipped last one) and coolant. New spark plugs when I checked the valve clearances a couple of hundred miles ago, using a guide from the internet and the service manual. They were in spec, written the values down at home.

Mileage history, according to the MOT, was about 2k per year, until I bought it, then its done around 6200 miles.

It runs fine, it is going in to see yorkie_chris (Bradford way) at the weekend for throttle body balancing and he's going to check the clutch linkages and adjustment. Can get him to give it a once over to give you an honest report on it if you like.

I'm popping into a couple of dealers on the way there too to get them to value it for a PX against a vstrom.
