In fact no, I'm lying, no oil change for 12k ... that's one I'd give 50p for...

I nearly wet myself reading his auction , he is brutally honest and it`s so tongue in cheek it really cheered me up after a crappy week . The fairing is an absolute horror and just reminds me of ill fitting stuff from the 70`s . I thought I had seen it all in my time but never seen that fairing before , and those are the scabbiest forks I have ever seen . I`m disappointed that none of the uber mechanics on here don`t see that bike as a "bit of a challenge"

It's not on brake pedal ... it's on the drain hose because the tube in the tanks rusted through, so with full tank it'll be filling the cooling system with fuel. Lovely.
